Abstract
This application relates to a pellicle for extreme ultraviolet lithography and a manufacturing method thereof using the low-temperature direct growth method of multilayer graphene. In one aspect, the method includes forming an etch stopper on a substrate, forming a seed layer on the etch stopper, the seed layer including at least one of amorphous boron, BN, BCN, BC, or Me-X (Me is at least one of Si, Ti, Mo, or Zr, and X is at least one of B, C, or N). The method may also include forming a metal catalyst layer on the seed layer; forming an amorphous carbon layer on the metal catalyst layer, and directly growing multilayer graphene on the seed layer through interlayer exchange between the metal catalyst layer and the amorphous carbon layer by performing a low-temperature heat treatment at 450° C. to 600° C.
