摘要: Method of manufacturing electronic devices using a maskless lithographic exposure system using a maskless pattern writer, wherein beamlet control data is generated for controlling the maskless pattern writer to expose a wafer for creation of the electronic devices. The beamlet control data is generated based on design layout data defining a plurality of structures, such as vias, for the electronic devices to be manufactured from the wafer, and selection data defining which of the structures of the design layout data are applicable for each electronic device to be manufactured from the wafer, the selection data defining a different set of the structures for different subsets of the electronic devices. Exposure of the wafer according to the beamlet control data results in exposing a pattern having a different set of the structures for different subsets of the electronic devices.

摘要: The invention relates to a charged particle lithography system for patterning a target. The lithography system has a beam generator for generating a plurality of charged particle beamlets, a beam stop array with a beam-blocking surface provided with an array of apertures; and a modulation device for modulating the beamlets by deflection. The modulation device has a substrate provided with a plurality of modulators arranged in arrays, each modulator being provided with electrodes extending on opposing sides of a corresponding aperture. The modulators are arranged in groups for directing a group of beamlets towards a single aperture in the beam stop array. Individual modulators within each group have an orientation such that a passing beamlet, if blocking is desired, is directed to a blocking position onto the beam stop array. Beamlet blocking positions for different beamlets are substantially homogeneously spread around the corresponding single aperture in the beam stop array.
