Immersion lithography system and method having an immersion fluid containment plate for submerging the substrate to be imaged in immersion fluid
摘要:
A lithography apparatus includes a fluid confinement plate which can completely submerge the imaging surface of a substrate. A gap, filled with immersion fluid, is provided between the imaging surface of the substrate and the last optical element of a projection optical system. The fluid confinement plate, which is positioned within the gap between the last optical element and the substrate, is sufficiently sized so that the imaging surface is completely submerged in the immersion fluid. The fluid confinement plate includes a first surface facing the gap and opposing the imaging surface of the substrate. The first surface includes a droplet control element to control the formation of droplets forming on the first surface.
