摘要:
In the Local Storage (18), a plurality of files, merge management information which specifies a file out of the plurality of files to be used in combination with what is recorded on a Read-Only recording medium, and signature information used for judging the authenticity of the merge management information. The Virtual File System unit (38) judges the authenticity of the merge management information based on the signature information. In the case where the merge management information is judged to be authentic, the Virtual File System unit (38) generates package information which indicates a new file structure obtained by adding the file specified by the merge management information to the file structure of the Read-Only recording medium.

An integrated circuit stores a module that executes applications that play digital streams. When the module is executed, the integrated circuit generates package information by merging files recorded on a first recording medium and a second recording medium, in accordance with merge management information, detects a plurality of playable titles from the package information, and selects one of the detected titles as a current title. The integrated circuit executes the application associated with the current title, and the executed application makes a request to update the generated package information by specifying new merge management information. The integrated circuit changes a file referenced from the newly specified merge management information to read-only before updating the package information, and at a point at which digital stream playback stops due to a current title change, the integrated circuit generates new package information by combining files recorded on the first and second recording media, in accordance with the newly specified merge management information.
摘要:
An integrated circuit includes a storage that stores a module that has a function of a virtual machine for executing an application recorded on a recording medium. The integrated circuit also includes a central processing unit that executes the module to cause the virtual machine to function and a decoder, that is distinct from the central processing unit, that decodes a video stream and an audio stream that are included in digital streams stored on a recording media. When the central processing unit executes the module, a package manager manages status information of the digital streams. If at least one of the digital streams is in an enable status, the decoder decodes the digital stream. When the decoder decodes the digital stream, the package manager changes the status information of another digital stream to an enable status or a disable status according to a request from the application.

The present invention relates to a substrate carrying device that carries a substrate such as a reticle, a substrate carrying method thereof, and an exposure device thereof. An object of the present invention is to securely suck a substrate onto a lower surface of a chuck.The present invention is a substrate carrying device including a movable stage having a chuck and being movable in a horizontal direction, the chuck having a sucking surface which faces downward and sucking a substrate on the sucking surface; and a fixed blind disposed below the movable stage. The movable stage moves to a position apart from the fixed blind in a horizontal direction and attaches and detaches the substrate. In addition, the substrate carrying device also includes a lifting portion having a lifting table which is movable in a movable range of the movable stage and is capable of being positioned below the movable stage; and a carrying portion having a carrying arm which carries the substrate to the lifting portion.

An extreme ultra violet (EUV) resist film is formed on a wafer W, and then a EUV light is radiated onto the EUV resist film formed on the wafer W so that a predetermined pattern is selectively exposed on the EUV resist film. Thereafter, a developing solution with a concentration of less than 2.38% by weight, whose temperature is adjusted to be 5° C. or higher and less than 23° C. in a supplying equipment group 138, is dispensed from a developing solution supply nozzle 133 to the EUV resist film formed on the wafer W so that the EUV resist film is subject to development. In such a case, a time period during which the developing treatment is performed using the developing solution may be set to fall within the range of 10 seconds or higher to less than 30 seconds. And then, pure water is supplied from a pure water supply nozzle 140 onto the wafer W to clean the wafer. The time period during which the pure water is supplied is set to fall within the range of 30 seconds or below.

A PEB unit has a first heat plate and a second heat plate. After an exposure process for a resist film for EUV on a wafer and before a development process, the PEB unit heats the wafer through the first heat plate at a first heating temperature. A heating time through the first heat plate is not less than 10 seconds and not more than 30 seconds. Thereafter, the PEB unit heats the wafer through the second heat plate at a second heating temperature lower than the first heating temperature. A temperature difference between the first heating temperature and the second heating temperature is not less than 20° C. and not more than 60° C.

A substrate separating method includes: holding, in a predetermined position, a substrate sandwiched between a first holder and a second holder opposed to each other; and relatively moving the first holder and the second holder while the substrate is held in the predetermined position. In holding the substrate, the substrate may be held in the predetermined position by effecting a pressurizing force or a suction force onto the substrate. Also in holding the substrate, the substrate may be held in contact with one of the first holder and the second holder.

A light shielding unit, which shields a part of an exposure light with a light shielding member, includes a sensor which detects displacement of the light shielding member, a driving device which drives the light shielding member based on a detection result obtained by the sensor, a case which accommodates the sensor and the driving device, and a bellows mechanism which gas-seals the case with respect to the light shielding member. When the illumination area of the illumination light is defined, it is possible to mitigate the influence of the foreign matters and/or the heat generated from the driving mechanism.

A sealing structure for sealing a gap between a vacuum container 2 and a lid 3 contacted to an opening of the vacuum container 2 to close it. A cavity 66 is formed in an elastomer O-ring 64 interposed between the vacuum container 2 and the lid 3, and a cooling pipe 65 is inserted in the cavity 66. The O-ring is cooled by circulating coolant in the cooling pipe 65. Since permeability of gas in a solid depends on a temperature, the amount of gas permeating the O-ring 64, especially oxygen, can be reduced by cooling the O-ring 64, thus maintaining a vacuum level in the vacuum container 2 at a high level. Since the O-ring 64 is cooled from its inside, only the O-ring 64 can be cooled locally without influencing temperature controls at other parts of the vacuum device.

A pressuring module includes a stage having a mounting surface on which an object to be pressured is mounted; a plurality of pressure detecting sections that detect a pressure applied on the mounting surface; and a pressure varying section that varies a pressure distribution across a plane of the mounting surface, by differing a pressing force against the object to be pressured between a periphery and a central portion of the mounting surface in a plane direction of the mounting surface based on the pressure detected by the plurality of pressure detecting sections.
