Patent Number: 7,713,678
Publication Date: May 11, 2010
Appl. No: 11/921327
Application Filed: May 26, 2006
Abstract: The invention mainly intends to provide a resist material that is high in the sensitivity to light and an electron beam and enables to form a clear and fine pattern with less exposure. In order to achieve the object, the invention provides a resist material comprising a metal compound, wherein a metal element constituting the metal compound is a 14th group or 15th group metal element and the metal compound is a stoichiometrically incomplete compound.

Claim: 1. A resist substrate comprising a substrate and a resist film formed on the substrate and made of a resist material, wherein a resist material includes a metal compound, a metal element constituting the metal compound is a 14th group or 15th group metal element, the metal compound is a metal oxide, the metal compound is a stoichiometrically incomplete compound and, when the metal compound is represented by M 1-X O X (M represents a metal element, O represents an oxygen element and X represents a composition ratio of O in a metal compound) and X that is a stoichiometrical composition ratio is assigned to 100%, X in the metal compound is in the range of 75% to 95%; and the substrate is a metal substrate and a heat storage layer is formed between the metal substrate and the resist film.
Claim: 2. A producing method of a pattern forming body comprising steps of: forming a resist film, on a heat storage layer formed on a substrate, made of a resist material that includes a metal compound, a metal element constituting the metal compound is a 14 th group or 15 th group metal element, the metal compound is a metal oxide, the metal compound is a stoichiometrically incomplete compound and, when the metal compound is represented by M 1-X O X (M represents a metal element, O represents an oxygen element and X represents a composition ratio of O in a metal compound) and X that is a stoichimetrical composition ratio is assigned to 100%, X in the metal compound is in the range of 75% to 95%, and irradiating an electron beam to the resist film.
Claim: 3. The resist substrate according to claim 1 wherein an electron beam decelerating layer is formed on the resist film.
Claim: 4. The resist substrate according to claim 1 wherein a metal element constituting the metal compound is Bi.
