    Abstract: A phase modulation active device and a method of driving the same are provided. The method may include configuring, for the phase modulation active device including a plurality of channels that modulate a phase of incident light, a phase profile indicating a phase modulation target value to be implemented by the phase modulation active device; setting a phase limit value of the phase modulation active device; generating a modified phase profile based on the phase profile by modifying the phase modulation target value, for at least one channel from the plurality of channels that meets or exceeds the phase limit value, to a modified phase modulation target value that is less than the phase limit value in the phase profile; and operating the phase modulation active device based on the modified phase profile. Thus, improved optical modulation performance may be achieved.

    Abstract: MQW devices, IC chips and methods may be used in semiconductor lithography patterning systems. An MQW device includes an array of pixels that have transmission elements and associated support circuits. The support circuits have preliminary memory cells and final memory cells. The final memory cells store transmittance values that control transmittances of the associated transmission elements. This way, exposure of a target with a lithography system for purposes of patterning the target may be performed through the transmission elements according to the controlled transmittances, while subsequent transmittance values are being received by the preliminary memory cells from memory banks. The exposure of the target therefore needs to pause for less time, in order to wait for the MQW device to be refreshed with the subsequent transmittance values. Accordingly the whole semiconductor lithography patterning system may operate faster and thus have more throughput.
