Types of lithographic methods.
(a) Optical lithography. (b) Electron lithography. (c) X-ray lithography. (d) Ion lithography 4
EBL: using accelerated electrons instead of photons. Like
photons, electron has also wave nature.
When electrons are accelerated through a potential V, wavelength is given by:
When V=10keV, λ=0.0123nm which is much smaller than the wavelength of UY light. The electron
beam lithography pattern can be transferred directly on the wafer without mask. 5
Collision of electrons with the substrate causes random scattering and
back scattering electron generation and also secondary electrons. 6 Schematic
Electron beam is focused on a resist film to create a pattern by exposing dot by dot:
(a) side view of the lithography setup; (b) top view of the exposed pattern by a serial writing 7
E-beam can be directed to expose only certain regions of the wafer surface, thus eliminating the need for a mask.
High-quality electron-beam systems are expensive.
Time-consuming sequential nature of the exposure method, production rates are low compared
with the mask techniques of optical lithography.
E-beam tends to be limited to small production quantities. High maintenance cost
E-beam techniques are widely used for making the masks in UV lithography 8 9

Resistive switching memories (RRAMs) used in cell structure, switching speed, operation power, and fabrication process
Fabrication procedure for the crossbar array based on metal nanowire arrays
Each layer such as the bottom electrode, the resistive switching layer and the top electrode, an e-beam lithography
step, a film deposition step, and a lift-off step are used 12
