Double or multiple patterning?

[edit]

Today an anon moved multiple patterning to double patterning by cut and paste. Apparently, the move a while ago of double patterning to multiple patterning was by cut and paste too. That loses the history of the page. I now merged the history of the two pages so one can track its creation back from the beginning.

The next question is which title is more appropriate? I tend to incline towards double patterning, as that's where the technology is as of now (well, it is even not there yet). Comments? Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 05:34, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, double patterning is the more appropriate title. Going to multiple patterning is like trying to run before walking. The one which is practiced most widely is the double exposure, which uses one photoresist layer with two different exposures. There are no special tricks, because currently the two exposures are somewhat independent, e.g., one trims the other. The spacer technique is most likely already practiced by Micron for the IM Flash NAND products. If gate contacts are located close to diffusion contacts in Intel's 45 nm process, then they must use pattern accumulation for the contact layer as well.Guiding light (talk) 14:39, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Intel's double patterning is used in the gate layer to square off the ends.218.168.206.13 (talk) 12:30, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is time to re-open the question of whether to now use multiple patterning as the title, as double patterning is now more or less a mainstream technology, and triple patterning is already practiced for NAND flash.Guiding light (talk) 12:13, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For state of the art 2x nm NAND flash, the floating gate is double patterned in two dimensions. For upcoming 1x nm, it will be quadruple patterned in two dimensions while the periphery is double patterned in two dimensions. Multiple patterning is the more appropriate title now.59.115.247.101 (talk) 12:35, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fujifilm double development patterning

[edit]

Fujifilm's approach as described in the linked article is very interesting. The photoresist is developed twice, once to remove the most heavily exposed regions, and a second time to remove the least exposed or unexposed regions. The intermediate exposure regions are left. Since these constitute the two edges of a line, the effect of double patterning is apparent, but there is a catch. Since exposure is a continuous function of position, the intermediate exposure region must exist in loops. There cannot be a "jump" from "intermediate" to "heavy" or "light". 218.168.206.13 (talk) 12:30, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If ok to make the move, the article will have a new emphasis on multiple patterning. The double patterning example descriptions can be kept, and I will try to get more up to date references on the cost of combining multiple patterns. It is already known that currently electron beam lithography is already the most basic and extreme form of multiple patterning (each projected shape being a separate "mask" pattern), hence the most time-consuming and costly.Guiding light (talk) 06:32, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Multiple patterning. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

Too technical

[edit]

I was curious on multiple patterning after reading a news article (http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/07/ibm-unveils-industrys-first-7nm-chip-moving-beyond-silicon/), so I came to Wikipedia. The first paragraph was rather clear. The table is trickier, but I happen to know what 193 refers to because of the news article. The second paragraph reads to me as gibberish, even though I've read in the past a bit about photolitography. By WP:TECHNICAL, in particular [1], that suggests that the lead section should be rephrased to be more understandable (or moved to a later part of the article). Similarly, the first three subsection titles are also too technical: "28-40 nm Half-pitch: Litho-Etch-Litho-Etch (LELE)", "20-28 nm Half-pitch: Self-Aligned Spacer", "Sub-20 nm Half-pitch: Beyond Double Patterning". They're probably part of some bigger section — "Implementation techniques"? "Phases"?. In comparison, "Industrial adoption" is a better section title.

I agree with the above. The article is impressively detailed, but if you're unfamiliar with the topic, even the introduction reads like gibberish. Please rewrite the intro almost entirely and run the revision by an 8th grader for approval. 2620:0:100E:30A:68E9:99C8:87F6:42A8 (talk) 17:37, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
