摘要
Quantitative analysis of the adhesion property of a KrF resist pattern is demonstrated experimentally. Dependency of the load for collapse on various line and L-shaped patterns, is investigated. By directly applying normal load with a microcantilever tip, a photoresist pattern adhering on a substrate can be collapsed easily. The adhesion strength of the L-shaped pattern is considerably large as compared with the line pattern. The reliability of this method is discussed together with the analysis of stress distribution in the KrF resist patterns.
