Abstract

The invention discloses an alignment method of phase grating detection by using three basic grating periods applied in a scanning projection lithography tool and a micro-device manufacturing way by using the method. The alignment method of the invention applied in the scanning projection lithography tool uses three periods phase grating in a substrate marker or a substrate station reference marker, uses a first order diffraction light of the three periods as an alignment signal, simultaneously realizes a big capture range and gets high alignment precision and strong signal intensity, improves system signal to noise ratio, simplifies optical design and debugging difficulty, simplifies hardware realization, reduces signal processing cost and improves alignment efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a lithography machine technology, in particular to an alignment technology of a scanning projection lithography machine. Background technique [0002] The application of a step-scan projection lithography machine to complete the pattern transfer task of micro-processing basically involves basic steps such as workpiece loading, workpiece to-be-processed area and reticle alignment, workpiece exposure and workpiece unloading, especially involving workpiece needs. In the case of multi-layer processing, the precise alignment of the workpiece to be processed area and the reticle is the premise to ensure that the workpiece is processed correctly under the condition that the line width is continuously reduced. When the graphics are accurately projected to the workpiece to be processed area or a new layer. When the graphic is accurately registered and projected on the to-be-processed area of ​​the previously formed workpiece, th...
