Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of optical systems, in particular to a method for screening aberration sensitivity of an optical system, which comprises the following steps of: designing a test pattern based on pattern layer characteristics of a photoetching exposure system, setting photoetching exposure process conditions and establishing an evaluation function containing photoetching exposure quality characteristics; evaluating the photoetching exposure quality change to obtain an evaluation result; changing wave aberration distribution of the photoetching projection system based on the evaluation result, simulating photoetching exposure quality, and completing sensitivity analysis of wave aberration parameters in combination with an evaluation function to obtain a sensitivity analysis result; setting a sensitivity threshold value corresponding to the evaluation function, and screening Zernike items above the threshold value in the sensitivity analysis result to obtain a screening result; the screening result is controlled to obtain aberration distribution meeting the photoetching imaging performance index, and the problem that the speed of obtaining the wave aberration distribution is low through a traditional wave aberration control method is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical systems, in particular to a method for screening the aberration sensitivity of an optical system. Background technique [0002] Photolithography is a key technology in the manufacture of integrated circuits, responsible for transferring mask patterns onto silicon wafers. Similar to typical optical systems such as telescopes and microscopes, the lithography system uses projection imaging to shrink the graphic information on the mask onto the silicon wafer. In order to achieve accurate imaging of nanometer-sized patterns, the wave aberration of the lithographic projection optical system needs to have an extremely small range and extremely high control precision. Therefore, realizing precise control of wave aberration is of great value and significance for the development of lithography equipment and semiconductor manufacturing. [0003] The traditional wave aberration control methods all propose c...
