摘要

While interferometry is routinely used for the characterization and alignment of lithographic optics, the ultimate performance metric for these optics is printing in photoresist. The comparison of lithographic imaging with that predicted from wavefront performance is also useful for verifying and improving the predictive power of wavefront metrology. To address these issues, static, small-field printing capabilities have been added to the EUV phase-shifting point diffraction interferometer (PS/PDI) implemented at the Advanced Light Source at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The combined system remains extremely flexible in that switching between interferometry and imaging modes can be accomplished in approximately two weeks. Relevant printing studies with the ETS projection optics require illumination partial coherence with a of approximately 0.7. However, this a value is very different from the coherent illumination naturally provided by synchrotron undulator beamline and required by the high accuracy EUV PS/PDI. Adding printing capabilities to the PS/PDI experimental system has thus necessitated the development of an alternative illumination system capable of quantitatively reducing the inherent coherence of the beamline. The implemented illuminator is an angular scanning system capable of in situ coherence control. Moreover, this illuminator design readily enables the implementation of conventional resolution-enhancing pupil fills and modeling of the unique Engineering Test Stand (ETS) pupil fill. This new static microfield exposure tool has been used to lithographically characterize the static imaging performance of the ETS Set-2 projection optics. Excellent performance has been demonstrated down to the 70-nm 1:1 line/space level with a focus latitude exceeding 1 μm and a dose latitude of approximately 8%. Moreover, dense-line printing down to a resolution of 50 nm has been demonstrated.
