Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a semiconductor manufacturing process, in particular to a method for detecting the surface topography of a wafer. Background technique
[0002] Photolithography technology has been widely used in integrated circuit manufacturing process. This technology exposes through a photolithography system to transfer the designed mask pattern to the photoresist. The concepts of "mask" and "photoresist" are well known in the photolithography process: the mask is also called a photoresist, which is a substrate of film, plastic or glass with various functional patterns ( A template for photoresist, which is used for selective exposure of photoresist; photoresist is a colloidal liquid mixed with photosensitive compound, matrix resin and organic solvent. A change in chemical structure that changes the solubility characteristics in a certain solution.
[0003] Since the lithography process determines the feature size of the final integrat...
