Abstract

The present invention relates to a mask plate defect detection method. The method comprises the following steps that: light beams with different wavelengths are projected onto a calibration mask plate having graphic areas with different transmittance to carry out calibration tests to establish a benchmark database; the light beams are projected onto a mask plate requiring detection, at least one selected from reflectivity or transmissivity of the mask plate requiring detection to the light beams is measured; the information of the measured reflectivity or the measured transmissivity is compared to the benchmark data to determine whether the defect exists on the mask plate requiring detection. With the detection method of the present invention, haze defects and micro organic pollution on the mask plate can be quickly and efficiently detected.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a defect detection method, more specifically, to a mask plate defect detection method. Background technique [0002] During the photolithography of silicon wafers using a photomask, ions in the environment tend to form attachments on the mask plate, which affects the exposure beam. When the mask is irradiated by the laser of the lithography machine for a certain period of time, especially under the irradiation of a light source with a wavelength of 193nm or below, so-called haze defects (haze) will gradually be generated on the mask. Ammonium sulfate compound is considered to be the main component of haze defects, and the residual ions after photomask cleaning are considered to be the main cause of haze defects. The presence of haze defects on the mask will cause photolithographic defects, which will lead to a decrease in product yield. Therefore, it is very important to find out the defects of the mask plate in time,...
