    摘要: A method of detecting a focus position of a projection optical system at a high throughput and with high accuracy. A sensor pattern (SP) which is provided on a wafer stage (WS) as a light-receiving part of a photoelectric sensor (PES) is moved in the direction of an optical axis (AX) of a projection optical system (PL), and at the same time, it is moved in a direction (X) perpendicular to the optical axis (AX). While doing so, a reticle pattern (RP) which is provided on a reticle (R) is illuminated by illuminating light (IL) for exposure, and an image of the reticle pattern (RP) is formed on the sensor pattern (SP) through the projection optical system (PL). Light passing through the sensor pattern (SP) is received by the photoelectric sensor (PES), and a focus position is detected on the basis of the intensity of the transmitted light.

These coil electrode patterns are formed in a loop shape, and disposed in a magnetically connected state with each other. Input/output terminal patterns and earth terminal patterns are drawn out from the coil electrode patterns toward edges on different sides of the plate. The input/output terminal pattern and the earth terminal pattern of one coil electrode pattern are disposed at a selected distance from each other so as to provide a predetermined impedance. An earth electrode pattern is formed opposite the coil electrode patterns with the plate between them. Earth terminal patterns are connected to the earth electrode pattern. The earth terminal patterns of the earth electrode pattern are connected to the earth terminal patterns of the coil electrode patterns. A trimming electrode may be formed for adjusting the passing band frequency of the band-pass filter optionally.

    摘要: Pattern transfer can be performed with improved exposure accuracy, by reducing the contamination caused by the attachment of a photosensitive agent or the like on an optical member of a projection optical member or the like. The pattern transfer onto a substrate W is performed after cleaning the objective member OB disposed at a given position by a cleaning device 8 at the time when pattern transfer is not performed, or while making flow a gas in a space between the substrate W and the optical member OB by a contamination protection device 98. Alternatively, the optical member OB disposed at a given position is inspected for contamination by a contamination inspection device 84 at the time when pattern transfer is not performed, and the pattern transfer or the cleaning or replacement of the optical member is performed based on the result.

    摘要: An apparatus is provided with an illumination optical system for irradiating illumination light from a light source onto a predetermined illumination area on a mask and a projection optical system for projecting a pattern formed on the mask onto a photosensitive substrate. The apparatus synchronously moves the mask and the substrate in predetermined scanning directions perpendicular to an optical axis of the projection optical system thereby to effect scanning exposure of a projected image of the pattern on the substrate. The apparatus comprises a device for inputting information on a distortion of a pattern having been already formed on the substrate, in a direction perpendicular to the scanning directions, and a device for controlling imaging characteristics of the projection optical system, based on the information thus input.

    摘要: A projection exposure apparatus having an illuminating system for irradiating a mask, which has a pattern, with illuminating light for exposure and a projection optical system having a plurality of optical elements arranged along an optical axis to project an image of a pattern illuminated with light onto a substrate. One of a plurality of optical plates having different optical characteristics is interposed between the pattern and the substrate depending on the pattern. An adjusting system adjusts a characteristic of the projected image based on a calculation using one of a plurality of parameters corresponding to the optical plates, the one parameter being selected in accordance with the one optical plate to compensate for a change in an optical property of the projection optical system caused by the change of the optical plate. The projection exposure apparatus may include an optical filter for making light passing through a partial area, which is centered at an optical axis of the projection optical system and light passing through an area other than the partial area different from each other in phase or transmittance, or for reducing coherence between light passing through the said two areas. The projection exposure apparatus also may include a transparent plate having an optical thickness which is approximately equal to that of the optical filter, in which one of the optical filter and the transparent plate is disposed on a pupil plate of the projection optical system or a plane in the neighborhood of the pupil plane during exposure.
