摘要:
A stereoscopic imaging method where a pixel matrix is divided into groups such that parallax information is received by one pixel group and original information is received by another pixel group. The parallax information may, specifically, be based on polarized information received by subgroups of the one pixel, group and by processing all of the information received multiple images are rendered by the method.

An etching stopper film is formed on top of a first insulating film. The etching stopper film is a film formed by depositing at least two films, made of constituent materials identical in quality to each other, one another. Subsequently, a first opening pattern is formed in the etching stopper film. Subsequently, a second insulating film is formed on top of the etching stopper film. Subsequently, a mask pattern is formed on top of the second insulating film. Subsequently, the second insulating film is etched with the use of the mask pattern as a mask to be followed by etching of the first insulating film with the use of the etching stopper film as a mask.

There is provided a method for correcting a photo mask, which allows the difference between a test mask and a corrected mask with respect to an error of line width depending on coarse/dense pattern to be decreased when the photo masks are corrected by optical proximity effect correction.The present method is consisted of: producing a test mask which acts as a mask for extracting process model for applying an optical proximity effect correction method (s1); transferring and measuring the dimensions of the transferred pattern using the test mask (s2 and s3); obtaining a function model (referred to as process model) of which a simulated result of the transferred pattern of a mask pattern of the photo mask using a function model matches the measured result (s4); obtaining a mask pattern of which a transferred pattern matches a designed pattern using said process model and creating mask data in accordance with the obtained mask pattern (s5); producing a corrected mask in accordance with the created mask data (s5); and setting an exposing condition where an OPE characteristic becomes flat with respect of wide and narrow pitches by adjusting at least one of a numerical aperture (NA) and a coherence factor (σ) of an exposing device when the corrected mask is transferred.

An exposure mask in the form of a binary mask for intensity modulating 0th order diffracted light and a mask pattern production method using the exposure mask are disclosed on which a mask production error, an influence of flare of an exposure apparatus and a development characteristic of resist reflect on the design. The exposure mask has a block area in which a plurality of pattern sites in each of which light intercepting patterns for intercepting illumination light emitted from an exposure apparatus and light transmitting patterns for transmitting the illumination light therethrough are formed at an equal ratio and an equal pitch are disposed. The pattern sites which form the block area are disposed such that the pitches of the light intercepting patterns and the light transmitting patterns are equal while the ratio varies gradually.

A semiconductor capacitor configured so as to use buried wirings, as electrodes, formed in an interlayer dielectric is provided on a semiconductor substrate which is capable of preventing an increase in a number of manufacturing processes with occurrence of parasitic capacity being suppressed. The semiconductor capacitor has a capacitive insulating film made up of an etching stopper film formed only in a region being sandwiched between a via plug serving as an upper electrode and a lower electrode, in which the capacitive insulating film is not formed in a region other than the facing region.

An exposure method is provided so that the dividend regions defined on a wafer are successively exposed using pulses of laser light emitted from an excimer laser light source in such a way that each region receives a different level of target exposure levels. And, transmittance of a course energy adjuster, having a number of neutral density filters, is adjusted so that a sub-divided region receiving the least number of exposure pulses can receive a pulse count that exceeds the minimum number of exposure pulses required for optimal exposure. During the process of scanning exposure, transmittance of the coarse energy adjuster is held constant so that, to compensate for variations in the pulse energy, the output power of the excimer laser light source is adjusted according to real-time data output from an integrator sensor.

An exposure method wherein a mask on which a pattern is formed is illuminated with a slit-like illumination light beam, and the mask and a substrate are caused to scan the slit-like illumination light beam in a scanning direction in order to form an image of the pattern on the substrate, and wherein photo-electric signals obtained by a sensor which moves in the scanning direction, relative to the slit-like illumination light beam, and photo-electric signals obtained from the sensor which moves in a direction orthogonal to the scanning direction are integrated so as to obtain integrated values thereof, and an unevenness among the integrated values relating to a direction orthogonal to the scanning direction is calculated

An apparatus for controlling a light quantity comprises a light source for emitting light and an acousto optical modulating element, having a driving unit for giving a progressive wave to a medium, for generating 0th-order and higher-order diffracted beams of light by an acousto optical effect of the progressive wave. The apparatus also comprises a stop element which transmits, not the higher-order diffracted beams, but the 0th-order diffracted beam; and a drive controlling section for varying a quantity of light irradiating an object by regulating the progressive wave through the driving unit.

A power source (14) rotates an eccentric (20) engaged within the center of a relatively large drive roller (22) to rotate the drive roller while simultaneously orbiting the center of the drive roller about a circular path so as to cyclically advance and retract from piston assemblies (24) located within pump assemblies (16a-16d). Rotation of the eccentric (20) causes each piston assembly (24) to cyclically advance against and retract from a flexible diaphragm (26) to cause fluid entering the pump assembly to be forced out under pressure. Each diaphragm (26) is "backed" by a spring-loaded support (27) that resiliently pushes against the side of the diaphragm opposite the piston assembly.
