Problems solved by technology

Although this transmission system can adjust the angle and position of the beam, this adjustment is set before the beam transmission, and is not adjusted in real time. In the process of beam transmission, even if the telecentricity of the lighting system and uniformity indicators do not meet the requirements, and this system cannot be found and corrected in time

Abstract

The invention provides a beam transmission device which is used for transmitting beams ejected by a laser to a basic illuminating system. A beam steering unit is placed on a beam path of beams; a beam splitter is placed on the beam path of the beams; the beams are divided into a first beam and a second beam after passing through the beam splitter, a beam outlet is arranged on the beam path of the first beam, a beam measuring unit is arranged on the beam path of the second beam, the beam steering unit and the beam measuring unit are both connected with a controller. The beam transmission device of the invention can measure positions and angles of beams in real time and adjust the positions and angles of the beams according to the measurement results, thus ensuring stability of telecenter and uniformity of the illuminating system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a photolithography exposure system, and in particular to a light beam transmission device and method in the photolithography exposure system. Background technique [0002] A lithographic exposure system typically includes a light source providing a radiation beam, a beam delivery system, a basic illumination system, a reticle containing a circuit pattern, a projection system, and a wafer for photoresist coating and a wafer alignment stage. The beam transmission system includes a transmission device that diverts and transmits the beam from the beam into the basic lighting system, which is used to incident the beam emitted from the light source on the basic lighting system at the correct angle and position. The basic lighting system illuminates the reticle circuit diagram, and the projection system Projects an image of the illuminated area of ​​the reticle pattern onto the wafer. [0003] Such as figure 1 As shown, the beam tra...
