Edited by William B.
Glendinning and John N.
Helbert, this 1991 technical volume is a detailed reference work on the science and engineering of microlithography?the core process used to manufacture integrated circuits in microelectronics.
The book explains how patterns are transferred onto semiconductor wafers using light, electron beams, and X-ray techniques.
It covers both theoretical foundations and practical applications, including photoresist chemistry, optical systems, resolution limits, and process control.
Topics such as positive vs.
negative resists, thin-film behavior, and defect management are addressed in depth.
As part of a broader materials science and process technology series, it compiles contributions from multiple experts, making it a comprehensive snapshot of lithographic technology at the dawn of the modern VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) era.
It is aimed primarily at engineers, researchers, and advanced students working in semiconductor fabrication.
