Abstract

See full text

A polycarbonate polymer such as poly(cyclohexene carbonate) acts as a positive electron beam resist, is substantially transparent to ultra violet light and that depolymerizes when heated. The polymer acts as a positive electron beam resist at 5 kV, and depolymerizes at temperatures between approximately 200-300.degree. C. The polymer is removable from underneath other layers by heating, facilitating fabrication of overhanging structures such as tubes by depositing layers on top of the polymer.
