摘要:
A management system and method of a reticle in an exposing process are disclosed. A calculator calculates an accumulated dosage of an illuminating light irradiated onto a reticle used in a photolithography process. The calculator is connected to an exposing apparatus to expose photoresist on a semiconductor substrate. A comparator compares the calculated accumulated dosage with a preset reference dosage. When the calculated accumulated dosage is greater than or equal to the reference dosage, a controller suspends the photolithography process. Minimizing haze contamination on the reticle, thus preventing process failures.

An air shower head of an exposure device of photolithography equipment is free of chemical substances that could otherwise contaminate a photoresist layer on a semiconductor wafer and degrade the profile of the photoresist pattern. The air shower head is interposed between a lens system of the exposure device and a wafer stage, and has a hole in the middle thereof through which exposure light can pass to a wafer supported on the stage. The air shower head includes an upper frame defining a cavity open at the bottom thereof, and a porous bottom member covering the bottom of the upper frame. The porous member is mechanically secured to bottom ends of both the inner and outer side walls of the upper frame, i.e., without the use of chemical binders, to reduce the ability of the air shower head to serve as a source of contamination.
摘要:
A refrigerating cycle system for a refrigerator has a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber. The refrigerating cycle system includes a compressor, a condenser, first and second expansion devices, a first evaporator for cooling the freezing chamber by evaporating the refrigerant that is reduced in pressure by the first and second expansion devices, and a second evaporator for cooling the refrigerating chamber. A fluid passage is provided for directly conducting the refrigerant from the condenser to the first evaporator. Another fluid passage is provided for directing the refrigerant from the condenser to the first evaporator via the second evaporator. A direction control valve is disposed between those two fluid passages to selectively direct the refrigerant to one of those fluid passages as a function of a sensed temperature of the refrigerating chamber.
