Semiconductor device and methods of forming fins and gates with ultraviolet curing
Semiconductor devices and methods for forming devices with ultraviolet curing. One method includes, for instance: obtaining a wafer; forming at least one mandrel; forming spacers adjacent to the at least one mandrel; performing an ultraviolet treatment to at least one set of spacers; and etching to form hard mask regions below at least the spacers. An intermediate semiconductor device includes, for instance: a substrate; a stop layer over the substrate; a first barrier layer over the stop layer; at least one first mandrel and at least one second mandrel on the first barrier layer; at least one first set of spacers positioned adjacent to the first mandrel; at least one second set of spacers positioned adjacent to the second mandrel; and a second barrier layer over the at least one first mandrel and the at least one first set of spacers.
