Abstract:
A method for adjusting the flatness of a lithographic mask includes determining an initial mask flatness of the mask, determining an applied stress for bringing the mask to a desired mask flatness, and determining a mounting temperature of a pellicle frame to be mounted to the mask, the mounting temperature corresponding to the applied stress. The actual temperature of the pellicle frame is adjusted to the determined mounting temperature, and the pellicle frame is mounted to the mask at the mounting temperature.
