    摘要: An advanced exposure apparatus combines a quadrupole illumination system and an annular illumination system, and includes a light source, an adjusting portion comprising a filter to limit the light emitted from the light source, a refractive/diffractive portion for refracting and diffracting the light emitted from the adjusting portion and a focussing portion for focussing the light emitted from the refractive/diffractive portion onto a wafer, wherein the filter is provided with first group holes and second group holes comprising four holes, respectively. In an exposure method using such an apparatus, uniform light intensity distribution can be formed on an image formation plane (or wafer) while improved resolution is maintained. Since image formation information (i.e, light passing through a mask pattern) becomes uniform, a very nearly circular contact hole pattern can be formed, to reduce the proximity effect.

    摘要: A facility for manufacturing semiconductor devices is provided with a diagnosis system for easily monitoring the operation states of various fabrication systems, and controlling them in case of abnormal operation states by means of a sensing signal from the fabrication systems and a control signal from a control system. The fabrication system outputs a sensing signal showing the operation states of the fabrication processes such as temperature, time, pressure, concentration, power, etc. The control system outputs a control signal to the fabrication systems for controlling their operation states via transmit lines connected thereto according to the sensing signal from the fabrication systems or an input signal from a host computer. The diagnosis system analyzes the sensing signal from the fabrication systems and the control signal from the control system so as to assess the operation states of the fabrication systems. The control system and the diagnosis system are connected to a LAN (Local Area Network) connected to a communication modem, and the fabrication systems are diagnosed via a communication network.
