Abstract:
A method for etching an assembled block copolymer layer including first and second polymer phases, in which the etching method includes exposing the assembled block copolymer layer to a plasma so as to etch the first polymer phase and simultaneously to deposit a carbon layer on the second polymer phase, wherein the plasma is formed from a gas mixture including a depolymerising gas and an etching gas selected among the hydrocarbons.
