Abstract:
Resist materials having enhanced sensitivity to radiation are disclosed herein, along with methods for lithography patterning that implement such resist materials. An exemplary resist material includes a polymer, a sensitizer, and a photo-acid generator (PAG). The sensitizer is configured to generate a secondary radiation in response to the radiation. The PAG is configured to generate acid in response to the radiation and the secondary radiation. The PAG includes a sulfonium cation having a first phenyl ring and a second phenyl ring, where the first phenyl ring is chemically bonded to the second phenyl ring.

Claim (Index 15):
The resist material of  claim 11 , wherein the first phenyl ring includes a first carbon, the second phenyl ring includes a second carbon, and the sulfonium cation further includes a third carbon chemically bonded to the first carbon and a fourth carbon chemically bonded to the second carbon, wherein the third carbon is chemically bonded to the fourth carbon, such that the third carbon and the fourth carbon connect the first phenyl ring to the second phenyl ring.
