摘要： Adaptive optical elements for use in high precision lithography exposure are provided with an array of discrete actuators to provide highly stable and repeatable correction of the shape of an optical element to an accuracy of a small fraction of a very short wavelength of light in the EUV range of 1 to 50 nanometers, responsive to a metrology source and sensor arrangement. The actuators are matched to the deformation characteristics of the adaptive optical elements. Preferably, the actuators provide both positive and negative force for outward and/or inward deflection continuously over the surface of the mirror. The surface of the optical element may thus be accurately, controllably and repeatably deformed to within an allowable deformation limit to optimize optical performance of an optical system for high precision lithography exposure.

摘要： A liquid jet and recovery system for an immersion lithography apparatus has arrays of nozzles arranged to have their openings located proximal to an exposure region through which an image pattern is projected onto a workpiece such as a wafer. These nozzles are each adapted to serve selectively either as a source nozzle for supplying a fluid into the exposure region or as a recovery nozzle for recovering the fluid from the exposure region. A fluid controlling device functions to cause nozzles on selected one or more sides of the exposure region to serve as source nozzles and to cause nozzles on selected one or more of the remaining sides to serve as recovery nozzles such that a desired flow pattern can be established for the convenience of immersion lithography.

摘要： A liquid immersion lithography apparatus includes a stage on which a wafer is held. A projection system projects a pattern image to an exposure region through an immersion liquid to expose the wafer on the stage. A plurality of supply openings are arranged to surround the exposure region, via which the liquid is supplied from above the exposure region. A plurality of recovery openings are arranged to surround the exposure region, via which the liquid is collected from above the exposure region. A part of the supply openings are selected so as to supply the liquid ahead of the exposure region in a direction in which the stage moves.
