Abstract

The invention relates to a processing method of lithography machine alignment signals, comprising the following steps: setting a non-linear model for processing the alignment signals of the lithography machine silicon slice; carrying out alignment scanning on the lithography machine silicon slice to obtain position sampling data and light intensity sampling data; carrying out real-time accumulative processing on the position sampling data and the light intensity sampling data to obtain accumulation coefficient; confirming non-linear parameter initial value of the non-linear model according to a linear model containing dark current, sine coefficient and cosine coefficient; obtaining the linear parameters of the non-linear model according to the accumulation coefficient and the non-linear parameter; obtaining iteration increment of the non-linear parameter according to the accumulation coefficient and the linear parameters of the non-linear model; updating the non-linear parameters of the non-linear model according to the iteration increment; judging whether the iteration increment meets accuracy requirement so as to determine the final linear parameters and the final non-linear parameters of the non-linear model.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for processing silicon chip alignment signals of a photolithography machine. Background technique [0002] Overlay accuracy is one of the key indicators of the lithography machine. In order to achieve higher overlay accuracy, it is necessary to accurately establish the relationship between the coordinate systems of the lithography machine. Off-axis alignment is the alignment between the diffraction mark formed by the reflected light of the polarized laser irradiated on the silicon wafer mark and the reference mark of the silicon wafer after diffraction, because the silicon wafer mark is attached to the silicon wafer or the silicon wafer stage , the alignment scan between the alignment mark and the reference mark can be formed by moving the workpiece table at a constant speed, and the precise alignment position can be obtained by signal processing the synchronously sampled light intensity and data.
