摘要： An apparatus for detecting foreign particles on a surface of a reticle or pellicle comprises an optical system through which a light beam forms a light spot on the surface. The surface and the light spot are shifted relatively so that the light spot scans the surface. Light detectors receive light scattered by a foreign particle and directed in different directions, respectively, and generated photoelectric outputs by which the presence of the foreign particle is discriminated. Beam diameter and scanning speed are varied to provide the most effective operation for particles of different sizes.

摘要： Charged-particle-beam (CPB) mapping projection-optical systems and adjustment methods for such systems are disclosed that can be performed quickly and accurately. In a typical system, an irradiation beam is emitted from a source, passes through an irradiation-optical system, and enters a Wien filter (“E×B”). Upon passing through the E×B, the irradiation beam passes through an objective-optical system and is incident on an object surface. Such impingement generates an observation beam that returns through the objective-optical system and the E×B in a different direction to a detector via an imaging-optical system. An adjustment-beam source emits an adjustment beam used for adjusting and aligning the position of, e.g., the object surface and/or the Wien's condition of the E×B. The adjustment beam can be off-axis relative to the objective-optical system. For such adjusting and aligning, fiducial marks (situated, e.g., in the plane of the object surface) can be used that are optimized for the CPB-optical system and the off-axis optical system. Desirably, the image formed on the detector when electrical voltage and current are not applied to the E×B is in the same position as the image formed on the detector when electrical voltage and current are applied to the E×B. Also provided are “evaluation charts” for use in such alignments that do not require adjustment of the optical axis of the irradiation-optical system, and from which the kinetic-energy distribution of the emitted adjustment beam is stable.

摘要： A decomposition apparatus for decomposition of decomposition targets such as organic chlorinated compounds is provided. The decomposition apparatus includes a contact section with an internal space to allow a decomposition target to come into contact with and be taken into a liquid, a flow path to lead along with the liquid the decomposition target taken into the liquid to a position different from the internal space, a decomposing device positioned along the flow path in a state cut off from the outside air to decompose the decomposition target that has been led through the flow path, and a device to introduce to the contact section a liquid that contains products produced from the decomposition of the decomposition target by the decomposing device. The decomposing apparatus have plate-shaped electrodes that come into contact with and electrolyze the decomposition target that flows through the flow path, and wherein the surfaces of the electrodes are positioned within the decomposing device at an angle different from the flow direction of the liquid in the flow path, for example, perpendicular to the flow direction of the liquid in the flow path.

摘要： Apparatus and methods are disclosed for transferring a pattern defined by a mask onto a surface of a substrate. The apparatus includes an illumination optical system for illuminating the pattern on the mask. A projection optical system forms an erect image of the pattern on the substrate. For exposure, the mask and substrate are movable together in a scanning direction relative to the projection optical system. First and second relative-displacement measuring systems, the first being separated from the second by a predetermined distance perpendicular to the scanning direction, measure displacement of the mask relative to the substrate in the scanning direction. First and second detection systems detect displacement of the mask and substrate, respectively, in the direction perpendicular to the scanning direction. A position-adjusting system adjusts the position of at least one of the mask and substrate. A calculation system calculates a position-adjusting amount based on outputs from the first and second relative-displacement measuring systems and from the first and second detection systems. A control system controls the position-adjusting system based on an output from the calculation system.

摘要： An exposure apparatus and an exposure method which minimize defocusing of the transferred pattern even with a large-sized mask. When the exposure apparatus is used which transfers the pattern formed on a first substrate through a substantially real-size projection optical system onto a second substrate, the positions of the mask and the substrate are detected, and based on the information on the positions the distance between the mask and the substrate is controlled to be substantially constant. According to the present invention, defocusing of the transferred pattern may be substantially avoided by detecting positions of the mask and the plate by making use of, e.g., an obliquely incident light focus detection optical system, and controlling the distance therebetween to be held constant or at a predetermined distance.

摘要： The thin film transistor comprises source and drain regions, a channel forming region formed between the source and drain regions, a first (main) gate for turning on or off the transistor, and in particular at least one second (sub-) gate for reducing turn-off leakage current. When the n-channel transistor is turned off, for example, a negative voltage is applied to the main gate to form a p-channel layer in the channel forming region under the main gate and a positive voltage is applied to the subgate to form an n-channel layer in the channel forming region under the subgate, for instance, so that a pn junction can be formed between under the main gate and the subgate to reduce the turn-off leakage current. The above-mentioned disclosure can be clearly applied to p-channel transistors. Further, the above four-terminal transistor can be simply modified to a three-terminal transistor by connecting the main gate to the subgate via a diode or a capacitor or by directly connecting the drain region to the subgate. Further, the above three-terminal transistor can be manufactured in accordance with only the ordinary device manufacturing process.
