Background
The photolithography technique is a method for transferring a semiconductor circuit pattern on a photomask to a silicon wafer, and the photomask is irradiated by laser or an electron beam to change the material properties of photosensitive substances on the wafer due to light sensitivity, so that the pattern transfer process is completed. However, the existing photolithography process has the technical problem of light scattering, which can cause low dimensional accuracy of photoresist imaging and can not process patterns correctly. The current mainstream solution is to add a bottom anti-reflective film or a top anti-reflective film before and after photoresist coating. Among them, the top anti-reflection film mainly aims to reduce interference of light in a photoresist, prevent a change in a width of a photoresist line due to a change in a thickness of the photoresist, and is required to have a low refractive index and a high transmittance.
Known top antireflective films can be formed by applying a composition containing a fluorine-containing compound on the top surface of a photoresist. The fluorine-containing compound has the characteristics of large molecular volume and small atomic refractive index, has low refractive index, has the advantages of positive correlation between the refractive index of the fluorine-containing compound and the fluorine content of the fluorine-containing compound, has easy coating property, easy film forming property, capability of developing in an aqueous solution system and the like, can be removed together with the photoresist through a developing solution, and is very suitable for preparing and forming the top reflection
Chinese patent application CN1666154A discloses an anti-reflective coating composition consisting essentially of an alkali-soluble fluoropolymer- [ CF2CF(ORfCOOH)]- (Rf represents a linear or branched perfluoroalkyl group, which may contain ether oxygen atoms), an acid, an amine and a solvent. Chinese patent application CN101568991A discloses an anti-reflective coating forming composition comprising a specific naphthalene compound, a polymer (- [ CF)2CF(ORfCOOH)]-) and a solvent. Japanese patent application JP09006008A discloses a water-soluble pattern forming material using a fluorine-containing polymer (F- [ CF (CF))3)CF2-O]p- CF(CF3) COOH as a surfactant, wherein p is an integer of 1 to 10, but the surfactant cannot satisfy the condition as an antireflection film. Japanese patent application JP10069091A discloses a composition for a top anti-reflection film comprising a perfluoroalkylether carboxylic acid (F- [ CF (CF) ]3)CF2-O]m-CF(CF3) COOH, wherein m is an integer from 1 to 10, preferably an integer from 2 to 4), homopolymers or copolymers of N-vinylpyrrolidone and an aqueous solution of at least one amino acid derivative. Taiwan patent application TW200928594A discloses a composition for a top anti-reflection film comprising the general formula Rf-O- [ CF (CF)3)CF2-O]m-CF(CF3) A fluorine-containing compound of COOH (wherein Rf is a partially or perfluoro substituted alkyl group, and m is an integer of 0 to 10), an amine compound, and a water-soluble polymer.
The fluoropolymer for the top anti-reflection film in the above prior art is useful for forming a top anti-reflection film for lithography, but has some disadvantages in terms of processability, film formability, refractive index, or raw material cost.

The solution stability, film forming property and refractive index of each of the prepared compositions were evaluated by the following methods, and the results thereof are shown in table 1.
< method for evaluating solution stability >
250ml of the prepared composition solution for antireflection film production was placed in a 500ml beaker, left to stand, the condition of the solution was visually observed, and the time at which it appeared to precipitate flocs was recorded as a stabilization time h (in days) to evaluate the stability, 14 days being an observation cut-off time. The larger the h value, the better the solution stability.
< method for evaluating film Forming Property >
Each of the composition solutions for preparing an antireflection film was coated on a silicon wafer (4 inches, supplier TOPVENTOR, type P, boron-doped, thickness of about 525 μm, diameter of about 100mm) by using a spin coater (U.S. Laurell, type: WS-650MZ-23NPPB), baked at 100 ℃ for 90 seconds, and cooled to form a corresponding film. The film formation was visually observed and microscopically observed with the aid of a metallographic microscope (MIT 500, aust optical instruments ltd, Chongqing), the film formation of the composition was evaluated, and macroscopic and microscopic photographs were taken with a digital camera and a metallographic microscope, respectively.
< method for evaluating fogging >

Observing the surface of the film under a microscope, and if a large number of liquid drops do not appear on the surface of the film, determining that the film is not atomized; if a large number of droplets appear on the surface of the film, it is considered that fogging has occurred.
< method of measuring refractive index >

Further, as can be seen from table 1 and fig. 6a to 6g, fig. 6a '-6 g', fig. 7a to 7g, the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acids of examples 1 to 7 of the present application produced compositions capable of obtaining a film having a uniform surface, having good moldability, and the film did not show fogging, and at the same time, produced antireflection films having a refractive index of 1.41 to 1.44 at 248nm, which were effective in reducing the refractive index under laser irradiation at a wavelength of 248nm, without light scattering and standing wave effect, and which were useful as top antireflection films for photoresists.
As can be seen from Table 1 and FIGS. 8a and 8 a', the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid of comparative example 1 contains 13% of perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid component having n ≦ 1, i.e., the content of component a is greater than 12%, which results in poor moldability of the composition prepared therefrom, and the formed film has many distinct holes.
As can be seen from Table 1, FIGS. 2a-2c and FIGS. 8b, 8 b', 9a, the stability of the solution of the composition prepared from the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid of comparative example 2 is poor because the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid contains 9% of the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid component having n.gtoreq.5, i.e., the component e is greater than 8%, and gels and agglomerates appear on day 3 of standing, and until day 14 of standing, gels and agglomerates still appear in the solution; the composition prepared therefrom had poor moldability, the formed film was unevenly distributed and had many distinct holes, and the film was fogged after standing for 3 days.
As can be seen from Table 1, FIGS. 3a to 3c and FIGS. 8c and 8 c', since the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid of comparative example 3 contains 17% of the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid component having n of 4, i.e., the content of component d is more than 15%, the solution stability of the composition prepared therefrom is poor, gels and agglomerates appear on day 3 of standing, and until day 14 of standing, gels and agglomerates still appear in the solution; the compositions prepared therefrom had very poor moldability, and the films formed were markedly unevenly distributed and had pores.
As can be seen from Table 1, FIGS. 4a to 4c and FIGS. 8d and 8 d', since the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid of comparative example 4 contains 32% of the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid component having n of 3, i.e., the content of component c is more than 30%, the solution stability of the composition prepared therefrom is poor, gels and agglomerates appear on day 2 of standing, and gels and agglomerates still exist in the solution until day 14 of standing; the composition thus prepared had poor moldability, and the resulting film had many holes.

Therefore, the composition solution prepared from the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid meeting the component content requirements of the application has good solution stability and good molding property, and meanwhile, the prepared antireflection film has the refractive index of 1.41-1.44 under 248nm, does not generate atomization, can effectively reduce the refractive index under the irradiation of laser with the wavelength of 248nm, can avoid light scattering and standing wave effect, and can be used as a top antireflection film for photoresist. Compositions prepared from perfluoropolyether carboxylic acids that do not meet the requirements for the content of components herein have problems of poor solution stability and/or poor moldability and/or fogging of the formed film, which in turn leads to difficulty in use as top antireflective films for photoresists.
Finally, it is noted that the above-mentioned preferred embodiments illustrate rather than limit the invention, and that, although the invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing preferred embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail may be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
