Abstract

According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, there are provided an organic treatment solution for patterning chemically amplified resist films, an organic treatment solution containing 1 ppm or less of an alkyl olefin having a carbon number of 22 or less and having a metal element concentration of 5 ppm or less for each of Na, K, Ca, Fe, Cu, Mg, Mn, Li, Al, Cr, Ni and Zn, a pattern formation method, an electronic device manufacturing method, and an electronic device use the same.

Claims (28)

1. A pattern forming method comprising:

(A) forming a film from a chemical amplification resist composition by applying the chemical amplification resist composition on a substrate;

(B) pattern exposing the film; and

(C) developing the exposed film using an organic developer, the organic developer being butyl acetate,

wherein the organic developer contains 1 ppm or less of alkylolefin having a carbon number of 22 or less, and 5 ppm or less of metal element concentration of each of Na, K, Ca, Fe, Cu, Mg, Mn, Li, Al, Cr, Ni and Zn;

the organic developer is stored in a container before developing, the container having an inner wall contacting with the organic developer, the inner wall being made from a perfluoro resin; and

the organic developer is filtered through a polytetrafluoroethylene filter before the developing step (C).

2. The pattern forming method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

performing a washing by using an organic rinsing liquid after the developing of the exposed film using the organic developer,

wherein the organic rinsing liquid is the organic processing liquid containing 1 ppm or less of alkylolefin having, a carbon number of 22 or less, and 5 ppm or less of a metal element concentration of each of Na, K, Ca, Fe, Cu, Mg, Mn, Li, Al, Cr, Ni, and Zn.

3. The pattern forming method according to claim 2 ,

wherein the organic developer and the organic rinsing liquid is an organic processing liquid for patterning a chemical amplification resist film, containing 1 ppm or less of alkylolefin having a carbon number of 22 or less, and 5 ppm or less of a metal element concentration of each of Na, K, Ca, Fe, Cu, Mg, Mn, Li, Al, Cr, Ni, and Zn, and

the organic rinsing liquid is 4-methyl-2-pentanol or butyl acetate.

4. The pattern forming method according to claim 2 , wherein the organic rinsing liquid is stored in a second container before performing a washing, the second container having an inner wall contacting with the organic rinsing liquid, the inner wall being made from a perfluoro resin; and

the rinsing liquid is filtered through a polytetrafluoroethylene tetrafluoroethylene filter before performing the washing.

5. The pattern forming method according to claim 2 , wherein the organic rinsing liquid contains at least one selected from the group consisting of a ketone-based solvent, an ester-based solvent, an alcohol-based solvent, an amide-based solvent and an ether based solvent.

6. The pattern forming method according to claim 2 , wherein the organic rinsing liquid is 4-methyl-2-pentanol or butyl acetate.

7. The pattern forming method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the developing of the exposed film using the organic developer is performed by using a developing apparatus mounted with a filter for a processing liquid, and

the organic developer passes through the filter for the processing liquid.

8. A method of manufacturing an electronic device, the method comprising the pattern forming method according to claim 1 .

9. An electronic device manufactured by the method according to claim 8 .

10. The pattern forming method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the polytetrafluoroethylene filter has a pore size of 0.1 μm or less.

11. The pattern forming method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the polytetrafluoroethylene filter has a pore size of 0.05 μm or less.

12. The pattern forming method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the organic developer is stored in a container for one or more days before developing.
