Problems solved by technology

[0004] The technical defects existing in the prior art mainly include the following aspects: (1) the types of the horizontal measurement sensor and the vertical measurement sensor are inconsistent, which makes the signal synchronization of the two measurement systems poor; (2) the measurement of the capacitive sensor itself The range and linear area are limited, which requires the bottom of the mask table to be very close to the top of the objective lens, which is not conducive to the installation and layout of other sensors; (3) With the continuous reduction of the critical dimension of the exposure line, the requirements for image quality are increasing High, so more precise vertical control of the mask table is re

Abstract

A measuring device and a measuring method for the position of a reticle stage of a scanning lithography. Several laser interferometers are adopted in stead of capacitance sensors to allow the sensors in the horizontal and the vertical directions to be consistent, so the synchronous control of signals is convenient and the measuring range measured in the vertical direction is increased. In addition, interferometric light can be introduced from any horizontal direction by mounting a 45-degree reflector at the top of the objective, so measurements in the vertical direction can be carried out within a large moving range; and weight distribution of the interferometers measuring in every direction is introduced during the measurement of the inclination amount, so the measurement of the reticle stage position is more accurate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a position measuring device and a measuring method, in particular to a position measuring device and a measuring method for a mask table of a lithography machine, and belongs to the technical field of control adjustment systems and orientation measurement. Background technique [0002] During the lithography exposure process, the mask stage and the workpiece stage of the scanning lithography machine need to move relative to each other for scanning. In order to make the pattern on the reticle imaged on the corresponding position on the silicon wafer with good imaging quality, it is necessary to obtain the mask stage in the horizontal direction (X direction), horizontal direction (Y direction), horizontal direction (Y direction), The position information on the 6 degrees of freedom of the tilt Rz in the vertical direction (Z direction), the tilt Rz in the vertical direction (Z direction), the tilt Rx around the horizontal directi...
