    摘要: Catadioptric projection objective (1) for microlithography for imaging an object field (3) in an object plane (5) onto an image field (7) in an image plane (9). The objective includes a first partial objective (11) imaging the object field onto a first real intermediate image (13), a second partial objective (15) imaging the first intermediate image onto a second real intermediate image (17), and a third partial objective (19) imaging the second intermediate image onto the image field. The second partial objective is a catadioptric objective having exactly one concave mirror and having at least one lens (L21, L22). A first folding mirror (23) deflects the radiation from the object plane toward the concave mirror and a second folding mirror (25) deflects the radiation from the concave mirror toward the image plane. At least one surface of a lens (L21, L22) of the second partial objective has an antireflection coating having a reflectivity of less than 0.2% for an operating wavelength of between 150 nm and 250 nm and for an angle-of-incidence range of between 0° and 30°. As an alternative or in addition, all the surfaces of the lenses of the second partial objective are configured such that the deviation from the marginal ray concentricity is greater than or equal to 20°.

    摘要: A projection exposure system is proposed which is positionable between a first object and a second object for imaging the first object in a region of the second object with light of a wavelength band having a width &dgr;&lgr; about a central working wavelength &lgr;, wherein a relative width &dgr;&lgr;/&lgr; of the wavelength band is larger than 0.002, in particular, larger than 0.005, for example, of the Hg-I-line. The projection exposure system is a so-called three-bulge system comprising three bulges having, as a whole, a positive refractive power and two waists having, as a whole, a negative refractive power. By applying suitable measures, in particular, by suitably selecting the material for the lenses forming the projection exposure system, the long-term stability of the system is increased.

    摘要: A projection exposure apparatus has a projection lens with an object plane, an image plane, an optical axis and a non-telecentric entrance pupil. The apparatus further comprises an illumination system having an intermediate field plane and a field stop. The field stop is positioned in or in close proximity to the intermediate field plane and defines an illuminated field in the object plane that does not contain the optical axis of the projection lens. The illumination system is configured such that, in the object plane, a mean of the angles formed between all principal rays emanating from the intermediate field plane on the one hand and the optical axis of the projection lens on the other hand differs from 0°.
