    摘要: A device for detecting a centering error of a rotationally symmetrical surface (0.sub.1, 0.sub.2) of an object (0) with respect to a rotational axis (AR) about which axis the object is rotated for the purpose of the centering error detection is described. Two beams (b.sub.1, b.sub.2 ; b.sub.3, b.sub.4) at angles of approximately 90.degree. are directed onto the object and the variation in the phase difference caused by the centering error (.epsilon.) between the two beams (b.sub.1, b.sub.2 ; b.sub.3, b.sub.4) reflected by the surface is determined.

    摘要: An apparatus is described for point-by-point scanning of an object, which may be a phase object, an amplitude object or a combined amplitude and phase object. The object is scanned with a light, sound, electron or X-ray beam which is converged to a spot on the object. A pair of detectors disposed in the path of the modulated radiation coming from the object convert the variations in the radiation into corresponding electrical signals which are fed to a summing circuit. A variable phase shifter connected between at least one of the detectors and the summing circuit is used to introduce a phase shift in the electrical signal such as to optimize the output signal of the summing circuit for the type of object being scanned.

    摘要: A mask pattern is repetitively scan-imaged on a number of areas of a substrate by means of a beam of EUV radiation having a circular segment-shaped cross-section. This system, which is easier to manufacture at lower cost than a projection system with six or more imaging mirrors, has only five imaging mirrors with a good numerical aperture and an acceptable image-ringfield width. An EUV lithographic projection apparatus provided with the new projection system has a wafer throughput which is approximately 50% higher than that of an apparatus provided with a six-mirror projection system. Moreover, it has a compact construction.

    摘要: Imaging conditions for the aperture rays of an axial pencil, for example Abbe's sine condition, determine how an object volume will be imaged in the image space of an optical lens system. The invention provides an optical lens element having an imaging condition which analytically should lead to the largest possible volume in an image space wherein possible aberrations (spherical aberration and coma) remain below a certain prescribed level.

    摘要: A device scans an optical record carrier having optically detectable marks along a track. The device includes a radiation source for emitting a radiation beam, an objective system for guiding the radiation beam to the record carrier, and a radiation-sensitive detection system for receiving radiation from the record carrier. The detection system includes at least two detectors on both sides of a dividing line. Each detector has an output for providing a detector signal. An electronic circuit forms a focus error signal from the detector signals. The electronic circuit determines a time or phase difference between corresponding parts of the detector signals relating to passage of the radiation beam over patterns of the marks having a spatial frequency in a first range and in a different, second range, and forms a focus error signal in dependence on the time or phase difference.

    摘要: In a lens system for focusing a divergent beam in a small spot and comprising a collimator lens and an objective lens, the collimator lens is composed of a positive plastics lens element and a negative glass lens element. This collimator corrects the temperature-dependent spherical aberration of the objective lens. This lens system is very suitable for a scanning device and an apparatus for reading/writing high-density optical discs.

    摘要: A scanning device for optical record carriers is provided with an objective lens (7) suitable for scanning record carriers (1, 21) having a transparent substrate (2, 23) of different thicknesses. The lens comprises an outer annular part (25) and an inner central part (26) within the annular part. Only the central part of the lens is used for forming a focus through a first substrate (2) having a first thickness. The central part is corrected for the spherical aberration of the first substrate. The annular and central part of the lens are used for forming a focus through a second substrate (23) having a different, second thickness. The annular part is corrected for the spherical aberration of the second substrate.
