摘要:
A charged-particle-beam exposure apparatus for exposing mask patterns onto a substrate includes a mask illumination system capable of varying the size and/or shape of the beam cross-section (the irradiated or mask-illumination field) at the mask. Initial mask alignment (rough alignment) and calibration are performed by irradiating respective alignment and calibration marks on the mask with a beam having a cross-sectional size smaller than the cross-sectional size of a beam used in the normal exposure process.
