  • Publication number: 20220404704
    Abstract: A method for making at least one structure having sidewalls with different inclinations includes providing a stack including a substrate having a layer of a positive resin whose tone could be reversed when exposed to an insolation dose D<Dinversion, the patterns exposed to the dose Dinversion not being sensitive to creeping at the glass-transition temperature Tfluage of the resin; forming a non-sensitive first pattern by exposing the resin to a first dose D1?Dinversion, the first pattern having a first sidewall having a first inclination; and forming a creep-sensitive second pattern by exposing the resin to a second dose D2<Dinversion. Creeping is performed by applying a temperature T?Tfluage to make the second pattern creep over a portion of the first pattern by leaving uncovered at least partially the first sidewall of the first pattern, and defining at least one second sidewall having a second inclination different from the first inclination.
