Abstract
The structural changes brought in by photon and electron beam exposure of P-Ge-Se thin films lead to large changes in the chemical solubility and, hence, have been exploited for resist applications. The chemical solubility difference can be increased by increasing the angle of deposition and is maximum at 80° . As-deposited films show a positive resist behavior, while by depositing a very thin Ag overlayer, a negative resist behavior can be obtained. Contrast and sensitivity (S) values of 2.5 and ˜1020 photons/cm2, respectively, for photons and 5 and 4× 10-4C/cm2 for electrons have been obtained.
