摘要： A patterning device handling apparatus for use in charged particle beam imaging is disclosed. The disclosed patterning device handling apparatus comprises a first gripping member and a second gripping member. The first gripping member is equipped with a plurality of first positioning projections, and the second gripping member is equipped with a plurality of second positioning projections. When the patterning device is held at one angle, the first positioning projections abut against one edge of the patterning device and the second positioning projections abut against the opposite edge of the patterning device. When the patterning device is held at another angle, the first positioning projections abut against two neighboring edges of the patterning device, and the second positioning projections abut against the other two neighboring edges of the patterning device. Therefore, the disclosed patterning device handling apparatus can hold the pattering device at different angles.

摘要： A structure for discharging an extreme ultraviolet mask (EUV mask) is provided to discharge the EUV mask during the inspection by an electron beam inspection tool. The structure for discharging an EUV mask includes at least one grounding pin to contact conductive areas on the EUV mask, wherein the EUV mask may have further conductive layer on sidewalls or/and bottom. The inspection quality of the EUV mask is enhanced by using the electron beam inspection system because the accumulated charging on the EUU mask is grounded.

摘要： The present invention relates to a defect review system, and/or particularly, to an apparatus and method of defect review sampling, review method and classification on a semiconductor wafer or a pattern lithography reticle during integrated circuit fabrication. These objects are achieved in comparing a reviewed image with a reference image pick-up through a smart sampling filter. A clustering computer system base on high speed network will provide data cache and save operation time and memory. A smart review sampling filter automatically relocate abnormal pattern or defects and classify the device location extracted from design database and/or from golden die image on the same substrate. The column of the present defect review system is comprised of the modified SORIL type objective lens. This column provides solution of improving throughput during sample review, material identification better image quality, and topography image of defect. One embodiment of the present invent adopts an optical auto focusing system to compromise micro height variation due wafer surface topography. And another embodiment adopts surface charge control system to regulate the charge accumulation due to electron irradiation during the review process.
