摘要: Wafer positioning errors in stepper-scanners contribute to imaging defects. Changing the wavelength of the light source's generated light can compensate for wafer positional errors in the Z-direction. The wafer's real-time z-position is determined and a change in wavelength target to offset this error is communicated to the light source. The light source uses this change in wavelength target in a feed-forward operation and, in an embodiment, in combination with existing feedback operations, on a pulse-by-pulse basis for subsequent pulses in a current burst of pulses in addition to receiving the newly-specified laser wavelength target for a subsequent burst of laser pulses.

摘要: A spectral feature of a pulsed light beam produced by an optical source is adjusted by receiving an instruction to change a spectral feature of the pulsed light beam from a value in a first target range to a value in a second target range; regulating a first operating characteristic of the optical source; determining an adjustment to a second actuatable apparatus of the optical source; and adjusting the second actuatable apparatus by an amount based on the determined adjustment. The first operating characteristic is regulated by adjusting a first actuatable apparatus of the optical source until it is determined that the first operating characteristic is within an acceptable range of values. The adjustment to the second actuatable apparatus is determined based at least in part on: a relationship between the adjustment of the first actuatable apparatus and a spectral feature of the light beam, and the second target range.

摘要: The wavelength detector includes a diffusion element that diffuses the laser beam; a light collection optical system provided downstream from the diffusion element; a member, including an aperture, provided downstream from the light collection optical system; a discharge tube that is provided downstream from the member and that includes a cylindrical anode and a cylindrical cathode that each have a through-hole formed therein, and that is configured so that an electrical property between the anode and the cathode changes due to an opto-galvanic effect when a laser beam having a predetermined wavelength passes through the through-hole of the cathode in a state in which a DC voltage is applied to the anode; and a high-voltage DC power source. The discharge tube is disposed so that the laser beam that passes through the aperture passes through the through-hole of the cathode of the discharge tube without directly irradiating the cathode.

摘要: A short-pulse mode-locked laser is configured with at least two reflective elements defining a resonant cavity therebetween, a laser gain element (“GE”) placed inside the resonant cavity at normal incidence and selected from transition metal doped II-VI materials; and an optical pump emitting pulsed output to synchronously or quasi-synchronously pump the GE at a pulse repetition rate frequency fpump, the pump being configured so that the fpump substantially matches an inversed round trip time in the resonant cavity flaser:fpump≈flaser=c/2L, where c is the speed of light, L is the length of the resonant cavity. The synchronous or quasi-synchronous pumping triggers and sustains a short-pulse emission of the laser with picosecond or femtosecond pulse durations.
