摘要： An analyzer plate positioned between a projection system and a radiation sensor is illuminated by a projected beam of radiation. The analyzer plate includes two crossing regions, each of which transmits radiation with a different polarization direction. The beam of projection radiation is patterned without influencing the polarization of the beam. By patterning the beam of projection radiation so that one region receives more radiation than the other region, the radiation sensor is given polarization selectivity.

摘要： A lithographic apparatus is arranged to project a patterned radiation beam from a patterning device onto a substrate using a projection system. The lithographic apparatus comprises: an illumination system configured to condition a radiation beam; a support constructed to support a patterning device, the patterning device being capable of imparting the radiation beam with a pattern in its cross-section to form a patterned radiation beam; a substrate table constructed to hold a substrate; a projection system configured to project the patterned radiation beam onto a target portion of the substrate; and a measurement system for measuring the wavefront aberration or other property of the apparatus. The measurement system comprises: a source module at the level of the substrate table for providing an effective source of radiation; and a sensor unit at the level of the support, for receiving radiation from the source module through the projection system for performing the measurement.

摘要： A system and method are used to detect parameters regarding an exposure portion or an exposure beam. The system comprising a substrate stage and a metrology stage. The substrate stage is configured to position a substrate to receive an exposure beam from an exposure portion of a lithography system. The metrology stage has a sensor system thereon that is configured to detected parameters of the exposure system or the exposure beam. In one example, the system is within a lithography system, which further comprises an illumination system, a patterning device, and a projection system. The patterning device patterns a beam of radiation from the illumination system. The projection system, which is located within the exposure portion, projects that pattered beam onto the substrate or the sensor system.
