Abstract:
An apparatus for measuring a mask error and a method for measuring a mask error are provided. The apparatus for measuring a mask error includes a stage configured to accommodate a reference mask having a reference pattern, and a target mask adjacent to the reference mask such that a mask pattern of the target mask faces the reference pattern, a light source configured to irradiate the first beam onto the reference mask and the target mask, a light receiving unit including an image sensor, and the image sensor configured to receive a composite image including a first image generated from the reference pattern and a second image generated from the mask pattern, and generate a third image from the first image and the second image, and a measuring unit configured to measure an error of the mask pattern from the third image.

An apparatus and a method for generating extreme ultra violet radiation are provided. The apparatus for generating extreme ultra violet radiation includes a light source, a first reflecting mirror on which source light emitted from the light source is incident, a second reflecting mirror on which first reflected light reflected by the first reflecting mirror is incident, a focus mirror on which second reflected light reflected by the second reflecting mirror is incident, the focus mirror reflecting third reflected light back to the second reflecting mirror, and a gas cell on which fourth reflected light reflected by the second reflecting mirror is incident.

Abstract:
A reflective extreme ultraviolet (EUV) mask includes a mask substrate, a reflecting layer on an upper surface of the mask substrate, and an absorbing layer pattern on an upper surface of the reflecting layer, the absorbing layer pattern having an exposing region and a peripheral region, and the absorbing layer pattern including a grating pattern in the peripheral region to reduce reflectivity of light incident on the peripheral region.
Abstract:
A method of patterning a photoresist layer includes forming a photoresist layer on a substrate, exposing the photoresist layer to light using a first light source so as to induce a chemical change in the photoresist layer, performing a post-exposure bake process on the photoresist layer, the post-exposure bake process including irradiating the photoresist layer with at least two shots of laser light from a second light source such that the photoresist layer is heated to a first temperature, and performing a developing process on the photoresist layer after the post-exposure bake process, the development process selectively removing a portion of the photoresist layer.
