摘要： A portable laser beam monitor utilizes a plurality of optical trains to monitor ultraviolet laser beam profiles at a plurality of positions along a laser beam path. A preferred embodiment useful for monitoring beam profiles of lithography lasers measures the beam profile at the front aperture, the rear aperture, the shutter plane and at infinity (the divergence plane). The beam profiles are imaged on a fluorescent screen which is monitored by a visible light camera. Images of the profiles may be discharged on the screen of a lap top computer.

摘要： The present invention provides a reliable modular production quality excimer laser capable of producing 10 mJ laser pulses at 2000 Hz with a full width half, maximum bandwidth of about 0.6 pm or less. Replaceable modules include a laser chamber; a pulse power system comprised of three modules; an optical resonator comprised of a line narrowing module and an output coupler module; a wavemeter module, an electrical control module, a cooling water module and a gas control module. Improvements in the laser chamber permitting the higher pulse rates and improved bandwidth performance include a single upstream preionizer tube and a high efficiency chamber. The chamber is designed for operation at lower fluorine concentration. Important improvements have been provided in the pulse power unit to produce faster rise time and improved pulse energy control. These improvements include an increased capacity high voltage power supply with a voltage bleed-down circuit for precise voltage trimming, an improved commutation module that generates a high voltage pulse from the capacitors charged by the high voltage power supply and amplifies the pulse voltage 23 times with a very fast voltage transformer having a secondary winding consisting of a single four-segment stainless steel rod. A novel design for the compression head saturable inductor greatly reduces the quantity of transformer oil required and virtually eliminates the possibility of oil leakage which in the past has posed a hazard.

摘要： A system for providing support for the movement of a laser chamber of a laser system during the installation and removal of the laser chamber from the laser system housing. The system includes a rail assembly that is retractable and extendible from the laser system housing and provides support for moving the laser chamber between an operating position within the housing and a position outside of the housing for removal. The rail assembly is retractable to reside within the housing when not in use. The system may also include at least one actuator for controlling the movement of the laser chamber in a direction having a vertical component. Actuator types that may be used include rotary, piston cylinder, hydraulic, pneumatic, and/or electrical mechanical. One type of rail assembly includes opposing rail structures that retract and extend by moving laterally out from the housing or by pivoting out from the housing. The system may be implemented with a gas laser system such as an excimer laser system.

摘要： An enhanced vertical thermal reactor system provides three isolated chambers including a wafer handling chamber, a process chamber including an elevator, and a cool down chamber, each sealed from the other. The sealing of these individual chambers, each from the other, has the effect of minimizing processing delays associated with the cooling process and the loading and unloading process to thereby improve the productivity of the furnace. The process chamber includes non-metallic media such that it can be operated in oxidation systems so that corrosive acids will not affect the process chamber operation.

摘要： A laser-illuminated wafer-exposing system such as a stepper or scanner having a first light intensity detector located within the exposing system near a mask and second light intensity detector located near the output of the laser. A feedback control system controls the output of the laser based on signals detected by at least one of the detectors. The feedback control system includes a processor programmed with an algorithm which is used to control the laser discharge voltage in order to provide light pulses having desired intensity at the mask with the laser operating in a burst mode. The algorithm utilizes at least the following parameters; a previously measured pulse energy, a calculated energy error, a calculated dose error, a value for the rate of change of pulse energy with voltage, and at least one reference voltage. In a preferred embodiment the algorithm uses the pulse energy measured with the light intensity detector located near the mark to provide the feedback control and uses the light intensity detector at the output of the laser to assure that the output of the laser is maintained within a predetermined range.
