Original Abstract Submitted
Methods for making a semiconductor device using an improved BARC (bottom anti-reflective coating) are provided herein. The improved BARC comprises a polymer formed from at least a styrene monomer having at least one or two hydrophilic substituents. The monomer(s) and substituents can be varied as desired to obtain a balance between film adhesion and wet etch resistance. Also provided is a semiconductor device produced using such methods.
