摘要:
A mirror arrangement for reflecting electromagnetic radiation, the mirror arrangement comprising: a substrate having a mirror side facing towards the radiation to be reflected and a back side opposite to the mirror side, wherein a mirror surface is provided on the mirror side and wherein an actuator arrangement for generating a deformation of the substrate is mounted on the back side of the substrate, wherein the actuator arrangement comprises at least one active layer having an areal adhering contact with a portion of the back side of the substrate; wherein the at least one active layer has a first layer thickness at a first location within the portion and a second layer thickness at a second location disposed at a distance from the first location within the portion, wherein the first layer thickness differs from the second layer thickness by more than 1%; and wherein the at least one active layer comprises at least one of a ferroelectric material, a piezoelectric material, a magnetostrictive material, an electrostrictive material and a memory metal alloy.
摘要:
A catadioptric projection objective for images an object field onto an image field via imaging radiation. The projection objective includes at least one reflective optical component and a measuring device. The reflective optical component, during the operation of the projection objective, reflects a first part of the imaging radiation and transmits a second part of the imaging radiation. The reflected, first part of the imaging radiation at least partly contributes to the imaging of the object field. The transmitted, second part of the imaging radiation is at least partly fed to a measuring device. This allows a simultaneous exposure of the photosensitive layer at the location of the image field with the imaging radiation and monitoring of the imaging radiation with the aid of the measuring device.
摘要:
A projection exposure tool for microlithography for exposing a substrate is disclosed. The tool includes a projection objective. The tool also includes an optical measuring apparatus for determining a surface topography of the substrate before the substrate is exposed. The measuring apparatus has a measuring beam path which extends outside of the projection objective. The measuring apparatus is a wavefront measuring apparatus configured to determine topography measurement values simultaneously at a number of points on the substrate surface.

摘要:
A microlithographic projection exposure apparatus comprises a projection objective which images an object onto an image plane and has a lens with a curved surface. In the projection objective there is a liquid or solid medium which directly adjoins the curved surface over a region which is usable for imaging the object. The projection exposure apparatus also has an adjustable manipulator for reducing an image field curvature which is caused by heating of the medium during the projection operation.

A projection objective for a microlithography apparatus with improved imaging properties is provided. A manipulator for a projection objective is provided. A microlithography apparatus including a projection objective of this type and/or a manipulator of this type is provided. A method for improving the imaging properties of a projection objective is provided.
摘要:
An optical system of a microlithographic projection exposure apparatus contains a module, which can be fitted in the optical system and removed from it as a unit. The module contains a cavity which can be completely filled with a liquid and hermetically sealed, and a concavely curved optical surface which bounds the cavity at the top during operation of the projection exposure apparatus. This makes it possible to fill the module outside the optical system. The module can be tilted there so that no air bubble, which prevents complete filling, can form below the concavely curved optical surface.
