Sensitive polysulfone based chain scissioning resists for 193 nm lithography

Chain scissioning resists do not require addition of photoacid generators to function. Previously reported chain scissioning polysulfone resists were able to achieve enhanced sensitivity by incorporation of absorbing repeat units, but these groups also inhibited the depolymerization reaction, which could further enhance sensitivity. Here we report the development of sensitive polysulfone chain scissioning resists for 193 nm that are able to undergo depolymerization. The effect of depolymerization of LER is also discussed. These polymers underwent CD shrinkage upon overdose, which may be useful for double patterning processes

A structural and catalytic model for zinc phosphoesterases

A structural model for the active site of phosphoesterases, enzymes that degrade organophosphate neurotoxins, has been synthesised. The ligand 2-((2-hydroxy-3-(((2-hydroxyethyl)(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino)methyl)-5-methylbenzyl)(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino)acetic acid (H(3)L1) and two Zn(ii) complexes have been prepared and characterised as and The ligand (H(3)L1) and complex were characterised through (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, mass spectroscopy and microanalysis. The X-ray crystal structure of revealed a tetramer of dinuclear complexes, bridged by two phosphate molecules and bifurcating acetic acid arms. Functional studies of the zinc complex with the substrate bis(4-nitrophenyl)phosphate (bNPP) determined the complex with HL1(2-) to be a competent catalyst with k(cat) = 1.26 0.06 x 10(-6) s(-1)
