Problems solved by technology

However, in actual situations, when there is an installation error in the X-direction interferometer, and the installation error of each measurement axis is different, the X-direction position of the table measured by different X-direction interferometers will also have deviations

Embodiment approach

[0036] Single interferometer control scheme, on the travel of the workpiece table / mask table, different areas are controlled by different interferometers, and the switching of the two interferometers is completed at the intersection of the two interferometer control areas, such as Image 6 As shown, for the measurement system composed of three interferometers, the weight is 1 in the area controlled by each interferometer, and the weight is 0 in other areas.

[0037] Consider the scheme of switching between two interferometers, set a switching area in the common control area of ​​the two interferometers, in this area, assign the weight factors of the two interferometers in the form of multi-order functions, and finally get the stage position is calculated by weighting the measured values ​​of the two interferometers, such as Figure 7 As shown in the example, when located in the switching region, the weight factor of one interferometer gradually decreases from 1 to 0, and the w...

Abstract

The invention discloses a control method of an integrated interferometer. The control method comprises 1, arranging at least two interferometers along a first direction, 2, setting control weight of each one of the interferometers, wherein when a work stage or a mask stage moves to a control area of each one of the interferometers, a weight factor is equal to 1, when the work stage or the mask stage moves to a non-control area, the weight factor is equal to 0, and when the work stage or the mask stage moves to a common control area of the two interferometers, the weight factor is a multiple order function, and 3, determining if the interferometer produces light leakage and carrying out dynamic zeroization on the interferometer producing light leakage if the leakage is produced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated circuit equipment manufacturing, in particular to an integrated interferometer device and a control method. Background technique [0002] The high-precision motion positioning of the workpiece table of the lithography equipment is realized by the interferometer (IFM). The interferometer is composed of a laser transmitter, a signal receiver and a mirror. With the increase of the Y-direction travel of the table, the length of the X-direction reflector of the table is also required to increase. However, due to processing difficulties and precision issues, the length of the reflector will be limited. In the case that the Y-direction travel of the table is greater than the length of the X-direction mirror without increasing the length of the mirror, the X-direction interferometer measurement axes can be arranged at different Y-direction positions, that is, during the Y-direction movement of the table, respe...
