    摘要: The hydrodynamic effects—which occur during immersion lithography as a result of the movement of the semiconductor wafer—in a liquid preferably provided between the last lens surface of the projection system and the semiconductor wafer can be avoided by means of a movable illumination region for illuminating a cutout of a mask containing a structure to that can be imaged onto the semiconductor wafer. A scan movement of the mask and the semiconductor wafer can be either reduced or entirely avoided by means of a movement of the illumination region.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing integrated circuits includes determining a process-induced displacement (e.g., a stress-induced displacement) between primary structures on a substrate and providing a photomask with mask features assigned to the primary structures. The distances between the mask features are set such that the process-induced displacement is compensated.

    摘要: In the fabrication of stacked vias, metal islands referred to as landing pads are introduced for the purpose of contact-connection between the vias that are arranged one above the other. The metal islands project laterally beyond the vias to a significant extent on account of the line shortening effect. The vias arranged in layers lying one above the other are laterally offset with respect to one another. The landing pad of the invention is configured as an interconnect running between the vias. On account of the line shortening effect, which is less critical for longer tracks, contact areas provided at the ends of the interconnect do not have to be chosen to be as large as the square contact areas of conventional metal islands and can therefore be accommodated to save more space on a circuit layout to be miniaturized. The shrink factor of such a semiconductor structure is increased.
