Abstract

The invention discloses a method for measuring time delay by synchronous signal time sweep. Pulse signals are equidistantly triggered at different speeds along a positive direction of a precise mobile platform to a spatial light modulator which exposes two frames different in sizes at the same center position to imaging on a substrate surface, the time delay from the outputting of synchronous signals to the image displaying of the spatial light modulator is calculated by measuring a positional deviation of the exposed frames, then the exposure can be compensated according to the time delay. The method for measuring time delay by synchronous signal time sweep can accurately expose the image to a designated position, absolute positioning accuracy of the exposed image is improved, and absolute positioning accuracy error of the exposed image caused by different exposure speeds is avoided simultaneously.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lithography in the semiconductor industry, is mainly applied in an optical maskless lithography system, and specifically relates to a method for measuring delay time of a scanning mode triggered by a synchronous signal. Background technique [0002] The lithography machine is one of the main integrated circuit equipment in the semiconductor manufacturing industry. As the core component of the lithography machine, the precision mobile platform is used to realize functions such as fast movement and precise positioning. The rapid exposure of the lithography machine system is realized by using the position synchronization signal to trigger scanning. Its working principle is: define the starting point position of the exposure in advance, the position interval of the trigger pulse, and output the pulse according to the set trigger mode as the platform moves at a constant speed signal to achieve synchron...
