    摘要: System and method for improving immersion scanner overlay performance are described. One embodiment is a method of improving overlay performance of an photolithography immersion scanner comprising a wafer table having lens cooling water (“LCW”) disposed in a water channel therein, the wafer table having an input for receiving the LCW into the water channel and an output for expelling the LCW from the water channel. The method comprises providing a water tank at least one of the wafer table input and the wafer table output; monitoring a pressure of water in the water tank; and maintaining the pressure of the water in the water tank at a predetermined level.

    摘要: Reducing photoresist shrinkage by plasma treatment is disclosed. A semiconductor wafer having one or more photoresist layers is plasma treated, such as plasma curing, plasma etching, and/or high-density plasma etching the wafer. After plasma treating, one or more critical dimensions on the photoresist layers is measured using an electron beam, such as by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The plasma treating of the wafer prior to measuring the critical dimensions using the electron beam decreases shrinkage of the photoresist layer when using the electron beam.
