    摘要: A method for forming a semiconductor structure is provided. The method includes depositing a hard mask layer over a substrate. The method further includes depositing a silver precursor layer over the hard mask layer. The method further includes exposing portions of the silver precursor layer to a radiation, the radiation causing a reduction of silver ions in the irradiated portions of the silver precursor layer. The method further includes removing non-irradiated portions of the silver precursor layer, resulting in a plurality of silver seed structures.

    摘要: A photomask includes a patterned photomask plate and a supporting member. The patterned photomask plate has a pattern region and a peripheral region surrounding the pattern region. The patterned photomask plate includes a plurality of openings in the pattern region. The supporting member directly abuts the patterned photomask plate and is in a peripheral region of the patterned photomask plate. The supporting member is formed from a different material than the patterned photomask plate.

    摘要: A semiconductor processing station including a platform, a load port, and a carrier transport track is provided. The platform includes an intake/outtake port and a plurality of processing modules. The load port includes a load chamber, a movable cover, and a carrier transfer module. The load chamber communicates with the intake/outtake port and has a load opening at its top end for receiving a transport carrier within the load chamber. The movable cover is disposed at the load opening and configured to seal the load opening. The carrier transfer module is configured to transfer the transport carrier to the intake/outtake port. The carrier transport track has a bottom side configured to open the load chamber.

    摘要: An apparatus for a lithography device is provided, which includes a laser-based particle eliminating component and a particle collector. The laser-based particle eliminating component includes a laser emitter and a laser absorbing member. The laser emitter is configured to emit laser beams for irradiating particles in a space near a photomask of the lithography device. The laser absorbing member is disposed opposite to the laser emitter for absorbing the laser beams. The particle collector is configured for collecting the irradiated particles.
