摘要:
Provided is a radiation distribution system for distributing the radiation from an illumination system to two or more patterning means, each for patterning beams of radiation, which are subsequently projected onto a substrate.
摘要:
A lithographic apparatus uses the control signal from a computer to drive two spatial light modulators to pattern two separate projection beams for projection onto two substrates.
摘要:
A maskless lithography system that writes patterns on an object. The system can include an illumination system, the object, spatial light modulators (SLMs), and a controller. The SLMs can pattern light from the illumination system before the object receives the light. The SLMs can include a leading set and a trailing set of the SLMs. The SLMs in the leading and trailing sets change based on a scanning direction of the object. The controller can transmit control signals to the SLMs based on at least one of light pulse period information, physical layout information about the SLMs, and scanning speed of the object. The system can also correct for dose non-uniformity using various methods.

摘要:
An array of individually controllable elements is comprised of elements, each formed of a stack of layers of dielectric material. At least one layer is an electro-optical material. The at least one layer's refractive index for radiation that is plane polarized in a given direction can be changed by application of a voltage in order to change the reflection/transmission characteristic of the boundary between this layer and the adjacent layer.

A lithographic apparatus provided with an array of individually controllable elements that is detachably mounted to mounting points on a support frame of the lithographic apparatus.
摘要:
An apparatus and method to determine a property of a substrate by measuring, in the pupil plane of a high numerical aperture lens, an angle-resolved spectrum as a result of radiation being reflected off the substrate. The property may be angle and wavelength dependent and may include the intensity of TM- and TE-polarized radiation and their relative phase difference.
摘要:
A system and method are used for pulse to pulse dose control in an illumination system, used, for example, in a lithography or a maskless lithography machine. The system and method can be used to decrease effective laser pulse-to-pulse variability in lithographic lasers, allowing adequate dose control using a minimum number of pulses (e.g. as little as one pulse).
摘要:
A method and system are provided for printing a pattern on a photosensitive surface using a spatial light modulator (SLM). An exemplary method includes defining two or more exposure areas on the photosensitive surface, the exposure areas overlapping along respective edge portions of the exposure areas to form an overlap zone therebetween. Two or more exposure areas are exposed to print an image therein, the exposing extending through the overlap zone. The exposing within the overlap zone is then attenuated.
