Abstract
An improved and novel semiconductor device including an amorphous carbon layer for improved adhesion of photoresist and method of fabrication. The device includes a substrate having a surface, a carbon layer formed on the surface of the substrate, and a resist layer formed on a surface of the carbon layer. The device is formed by providing a substrate having a surface, depositing a carbon layer on the surface of the substrate using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) or sputtering, and forming a resist layer on a surface of the carbon layer.
