  • Fullerenes to increase radiation resistance in polymer-based pellicles
    Patent number: 7288299
    Abstract: A pellicle made of a polymer material contains fullerenes within the polymer material to reduce the damaging effects of radiation that is transmitted through the pellicle during an exposure operation. The fullerenes may comprise nanotubes and/or buckyballs. The buckyballs may also enclose molecules of a gas that further reduce the damaging effects of the radiation on the polymer material.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 31, 2003
    Date of Patent: October 30, 2007
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
    Inventors: Alexander Tregub, Tim T. Chen, Susan Holl
