Abstract: New lithographic compositions for use as EUV adhesion layers are provided. The present invention provides methods of fabricating microelectronics structures using those compositions as well as structures formed by those methods. The method involves utilizing an adhesion layer immediately below the photoresist layer. The adhesion layer can either be directly applied to the substrate, or it can be applied to any intermediate layer(s) that may be applied to the substrate, such as an alpha-carbon, spin-on carbon, spin-on silicon hardmask, metal hardmask, or deposited silicon layer. The preferred adhesion layers are formed from spin-coatable, polymeric compositions. The inventive method improves adhesion and reduces or eliminates pattern collapse issues.

Abstract: This application relates to physiological monitoring typically for health and fitness purposes. Specifically, this application targets health and fitness monitors that require low noise acquisition of low amplitude biopotential signals.
