Abstract

The invention discloses an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light source pollutant collecting device which is applied in an X-ray device or an EUV light-emitting device. The EUV light-emitting device comprises a laser source, a vacuum chamber, a condenser and a nozzle. The EUV light source pollutant collecting device comprises a collecting cover and a storage device. The collecting cover is arranged in the vacuum chamber and used for collecting pieces of a target material after the target material is stricken by a laser beam, and pollution to an EUV light source and a lithography machine which is connected with the EUV light source is reduced. The storage device is arranged below the vacuum chamber and used for collecting the target material and / or pollutant. The EUV light source pollutant collecting device has the advantages of being capable of reducing the pollution to the EUV light source and the lithography machine which is connected with the EUV light source caused by the pollutant such as the pieces of the target material, prolonging service life, simultaneously reducing absorption of the pollutant to EUV light, and greatly improving efficiency of the EUV light source. The EUV light source pollutant collecting device can recover the target material and recycle the target material, and therefore using efficiency of the target material can be greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to an EUV light source pollutant collection device. Background technique [0002] As the semiconductor industry has higher and higher requirements for the integration of integrated circuits (IC, Integrated Circuits), traditional visible light or ultraviolet lithography machines can no longer meet the development needs of the industry, and the market needs lithography equipment with better performance to maintain the integrity of the entire industry Rapid development momentum. It is well known that the lithographic resolution is inversely proportional to the numerical aperture of the projection objective and directly proportional to the exposure wavelength. Therefore, in order to improve the resolution of lithography, the next-generation lithography machine will use shorter-wavelength EUV light (also known as soft X-ray, including light with a wavelength around 13.5nm) to rep...
