Abstract

This paper discusses advantages and disadvantages of advanced lithography techniques under investigation for the fabrication of semiconductor integrated circuits. These techniques are replacing conventional ultra-violet (UV) contact/proximity printing. They employ standard UV radiation (λ = 3500Å-4000ÅA), deep UV radiation (λ = 2000Å-2600Å), soft x-rays (λ = 4Å-40Å), and electrons. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the basic principles of the new methods.
