摘要: Disclosed herein is an imaging method for patterning component shapes (e.g., fins, gate electrodes, etc.) into a substrate. By conducting trim step prior to performing either additive or subtractive sidewall image transfer process, the avoids formation of loop pattern in hard mask and, thus, post-SIT process requiring alignment sub-lithographic features form with discrete segments. In one embodiment trimmed SIT so that not formed. another oxide layer and memory are used mandrel process. A then protect portions during etch back
