Abstract

Wherein, it sets one/two x-direction guide rail on pre-treating position and exposure position respectively. This invention reduces time consumption for exchange of exposure position and exposure time of every silicon slice, simplifies system, and improves system efficiency and reliability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of precise positioning, in particular to a movement positioning device for silicon wafers in the semiconductor industry. Background technique [0002] The photolithography process refers to the exposure and transfer of the chip pattern on the mask to the silicon wafer, which is one of the important processes in the production and manufacture of integrated circuit chips. A photolithography process includes multiple sub-processes: loading and unloading, pre-alignment, alignment, exposure, etc. The throughput of the system is determined by the running speed of each sub-process. [0003] A typical lithographic apparatus is a silicon wafer stage structure, such as figure 1 As shown, the system is mainly composed of an illumination system 16, a mask stage positioning system 15, a projection objective lens system 14, a silicon wafer stage motion positioning system 2, and a focusing and leveling detection system 13, among w...
