摘要:
An optical imaging system for a microlithography projection exposure system is used for imaging an object field arranged in an object plane of the imaging system into an image field arranged in an image plane of the imaging system. A projection objective or a relay objective to be used in the illumination system can be involved, in particular. The imaging system has a plurality of lenses that are arranged between the object plane and the image plane and in each case have a first lens surface and a second lens surface. At least one of the lenses is a double aspheric lens where the first lens surface and the second lens surface is an aspheric surface. Lenses of good quality that have the action of an asphere with very strong deformation can be produced in the case of double aspheric lenses with an acceptable outlay as regards the surface processing and testing of the lens surfaces.

There is provided a projection objective for a projection exposure apparatus that has a primary light source for emitting electromagnetic radiation having a chief ray with a wavelength ≦193 nm. The projection objective includes an object plane, a first mirror, a second mirror, a third mirror, a fourth mirror; and an image plane. The object plane, the first mirror, the second mirror, the third mirror, the fourth mirror and the image plane are arranged in a centered arrangement around a common optical axis. The first mirror, the second mirror, the third mirror, and the fourth mirror are situated between the object plane and the image plane. The chief ray, when incident on an object situated in the object plane, in a direction from the primary light source, is inclined away from the common optical axis.

A projection objective has at least five lens groups (G1 to G5) and has several lens surfaces. At least two aspheric lens surfaces are arranged so as to be mutually adjacent. These mutually adjacently arranged lens surfaces are characterized as a double asphere. This at least one double asphere (21) is mounted at a minimum distance from an image plane (0′) which is greater than the maximum lens diameter (D2) of the objective.

A microlithographic projection exposure apparatus comprises a projection objective which images an object onto an image plane and has a lens with a curved surface. In the projection objective there is a liquid or solid medium which directly adjoins the curved surface over a region which is usable for imaging the object. The projection exposure apparatus also has an adjustable manipulator for reducing an image field curvature which is caused by heating of the medium during the projection operation.

A projection objective of a microlithographic projection exposure apparatus (110) is designed for immersion operation in which an immersion liquid (134) adjoins a photosensitive layer (126). The refractive index of the immersion liquid is greater than the refractive index of a medium (L5; 142; L205; LL7; LL8; LL9). that adjoins the immersion liquid on the object side of the projection objective (120; 120′; 120″). The projection objective is designed such that the immersion liquid (134) is convexly curved towards the object plane (122) during immersion operation.
