    Abstract: Processing systems and methods used in the manufacturing of flat panel displays (FPDs) are provided herein. In one embodiment, a processing system features a motion stage movably disposed on a base surface, one or more X-position interferometers, and a plurality of Y-position interferometers. The X-position interferometers include an X-position mirror fixedly coupled to the motion stage and an X-axis stationary module fixedly coupled a non-moving surface of processing system. Each of the plurality of Y-position interferometers include one of a first or second Y-position mirror fixedly coupled to the motion stage in orthogonal relationship to the one or more X-position mirrors and one of a first or a second Y-axis stationary module fixedly coupled to a non-moving surface of the processing system. Here, each of the Y-axis stationary modules is positioned to direct coherent radiation towards a respective Y-position mirror when the Y-position interferometer thereof is in an active arrangement.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a system, a software application, and methods of a lithography process that provide at least one of the ability to decrease the stabilization time and write an exposure pattern into a photoresist on a substrate compensating for the change in the total pitch over a stabilization time. One embodiment of the system includes a slab, a stage disposed over the slab, a pair of supports disposed on the slab, a processing apparatus, and a chiller system. The pair of supports support a pair of tracks and the stage is configured to move along the pair of tracks. The processing apparatus has an apparatus support coupled to the slab and a processing unit supported by the apparatus support. The processing unit has a plurality of image projection systems. The chiller system has at least one fluid channel disposed in each track of the pair of tracks.
