摘要:
A method and apparatus for coupling a pellicle to a photomask using a non-distorting mechanism are disclosed. A pellicle is coupled to a photomask with a non-distorting mechanism that is located on a pellicle frame opposite a thin film coupled to the pellicle frame. The non-distorting mechanism acts to reduce stress exerted on the photomask by the pellicle.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for trimming a pellicle film using a laser are disclosed. A laser trimming assembly includes a modified laser-cutting head coupled to a laser. The laser includes a laser beam for trimming a pellicle film that extends beyond a perimeter of a pellicle frame. The modified laser-cutting head includes a nozzle and at least one hose port located on the nozzle. The hose port may receive a vacuum hose for removing particulate matter created during a trimming process.
