    摘要: A method is provided to reduce differences between the way in which reticle chucking forces and gravity force act upon the reticle during use and during assembly of the pellicle, and to combine this with a similar reduction concerning pellicle chucking forces and gravity force acting upon the pellicle during bonding to the reticle and during quality control of the pellicle. The shape of the pellicle is measured for control in the same orientation of the pellicle with respect to gravity force as during use of the pellicle, and during bonding the pellicle and the reticle are held in the same way and in the same orientation as during control of the pellicle and use of the reticle in the lithographic apparatus, respectively.

    摘要: A lithographic method of manufacturing a miniaturized device using a projection exposure system comprises illuminating the object plane of an imaging optics of the projection exposure system with measuring light; detecting, for each of a plurality of locations on an image plane of the imaging optics, an angular distribution of an intensity of the measuring light traversing the image plane at the respective location; adjusting a telecentricity of the projection exposure system based on a selected patterning structure to be imaged and on the plurality of the detected angular distributions; disposing the selected pattern structure to be imaged in a region of the object plane of the imaging optics; disposing a substrate carrying a resist in a region of the image plane of the imaging optics and exposing the resist with imaging light using the projection exposure system with the adjusted telecentricity; and developing the exposed resist and processing the substrate with the developed resist.

    摘要: In an immersion lithographic apparatus, a final element is disclosed having, on a surface nearest the substrate, a layer bonded to the surface and having an edge barrier, of the same material as the layer, extending from the layer away from the substrate to shield the final element from a liquid. In an embodiment, the final element is attached to the apparatus via the layer and/or edge barrier, which may be made of a material with a coefficient of thermal expansion lower than the coefficient of thermal expansion of the final element.

    摘要: An aberration correction device useable in lithography comprises two elements, at least one of which is relatively rotatable to the other about, for example, an optical axis. One surface of each element has an aspheric form describable by higher Zernike polynomials. When the two surfaces are rotationally aligned, the device has the optical effect of a plane plate. If there is a small relative rotation of the two elements the effect of the device is a phase shift describable by the derivative of the aspheric form. The correction device may be used to correct aberrations caused by lens heating, especially with illumination modes and pattern types resulting in strong off-axis localized pupil filling in the projection system.
