Abstract

The invention discloses a droplet target control system guided by a laser beam. The droplet target control system comprises a droplet nozzle, a high-power pump laser, a third focusing lens and a time delay pulse generator, and further comprises a laser source, a first reflector, a half valve plate, a Brewster angle polarizing film, a quarter wave plate, a second reflector, a first focusing lens, a vacuum tube, a second focusing lens, an annular plane reflector and an annular focusing lens. A dropping track of metal droplets in 20 micron dimension can be precisely controlled by the droplet target control system, and the dropping speed of the droplets can be regulated. The system is capable of stably working for a long time, the time synchronization and the space coincidence of the droplets and the high-power pump laser are guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a plasma light source of an extreme ultraviolet lithography machine, in particular to a liquid drop target control system suitable for guiding a laser beam of a plasma light source of an extreme ultraviolet lithography machine. Background technique [0002] Lithography machines are key equipment for manufacturing large-scale integrated circuits. The lithography machine uses ultraviolet light (such as 193nm wavelength laser) to selectively remove the protective film on the surface of the semiconductor wafer according to the circuit diagram. The photolithographic semiconductor wafer can be formed into an integrated circuit after liquid corrosion and other treatments. The fineness of the integrated circuit depends on the size of the UV focused spot. According to the diffraction theory, the shorter wavelength of extreme ultraviolet light can obtain a smaller focused spot. The extreme ultraviolet lithography machine uses extreme ...
