Description

[0001] 【Technical field】 [0002] The invention belongs to the technical field of optical precision adjustment, and in particular relates to a device and method for pinhole alignment of a point diffraction interferometer. [0003] 【Background technique】 [0004] In order to improve the resolution and critical dimension of the projection lithography objective lens, the wave aberration of the optical system tends to reach the diffraction limit more and more. Extreme ultraviolet lithography works in the extreme ultraviolet band with a wavelength of 13-14nm, requiring the wave aberration of the optical system to be less than 1nmRMS, and the EUVL projection objective lens has extremely strict wave aberration requirements. For the surface deviation of a single mirror It needs to reach 0.25nmRMS, which puts forward unprecedented requirements for optical processing and inspection, that is, the processing of EUVL projection objective optical elements requires the detection accuracy of o...
