However, if the mask pattern has a certain (forbidden) symmetry, spatial period (pitch) and / or orientation of the features, then these types of illuminators cannot be used, since a mask with these forbidden parameters cannot be imaged without aberrations. mold pattern

Embodiment Construction

[0116] figure 1 The schematic diagram shows only the most important modules of one embodiment of a lithographic projector. The apparatus comprises a projection column housing a projection device, such as a lenticular projection device PL. On this apparatus is placed a mask holder MH which includes a mask pattern C to be imaged and which is used to transfer a mask MA. The mask holder forms part of the mask table MT. A pedestal WT is disposed in the projection column under the projection lens arrangement. The stage is equipped with a substrate holder WH that supports a substrate W such as a semiconductor substrate (also referred to as a wafer). A photosensitive layer PR such as a photosensitive resin layer is coated on the substrate. The mask pattern C is to be imaged multiple times in the resist layer, each time in another IC region, or stamp Wd. The submount can be moved in the X direction and the Y direction, so after the mask pattern is imaged in one IC region, the next...

Abstract

For lithographically manufacturing a device with a very high density, a design mask pattern (120) is distributed on a number of sub-patterns (120a, 120b, 120c) by means of a new method. The sub-patterns do not comprise "forbidden" structures (135) and can be transferred by conventional apparatus to a substrate layer to be patterned. For the transfer, a new stack of layers is used, which comprise a pair of a processing layer (22; 26) and an inorganic anti-reflection layer (24; 28) for each sub-pattern. After a first processing layer (26) has been patterned with a first sub-pattern, it is coated with a new resist layer (30) which is exposed with a second sub-pattern, and a second processing layer (22) under the first processing layer is processed with the second sub-pattern.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a device in at least one substrate, the method comprising the steps of: [0002] - generating a design pattern comprising pattern features corresponding to device features to be formed in the layer; [0003] - transferring the design pattern in a resist layer disposed on the base layer; [0004] - removal of material or addition of material from the areas of the layer demarcated by the patterned resist layer; [0005] - sub-patterns respectively comprising different parts of the designed pattern are successively transferred in a corresponding number of resist layers, said resist layers being successively coated on said base layer. [0006] The invention also relates to methods of distributing pattern features of a designed pattern over a number of sub-patterns. [0007] The invention also relates to an assembly of photolithographic submasks which together form a virtual mask for patterning a device wi...
