4 Advantages of OML Fab transparency (e.g. same resist platform as mask-based) Advances in conventional mask-based lithography are readily extendable to OML w Wavelength reduction w Immersion w OPC w Strong phase-shifting Maskless lithography provides w Reduced cost of introduction and faster time-to-market for new designs w Reduced cost of manufacturing of low-volume designs Leverages TWINSCAN platform and optics expertise at customer and within ASML / Slide 4

6 Optical Maskless Lithography System Overview Concept w Illumination light is reflected from a dynamic pattern generating device (Spatial Light Modulator, or SLM) w SLM contains a section of a desired circuit pattern w Pattern is imaged onto a substrate through a high de-magnification projection lens First Technology Use: Micronic w Sigma 7300 photomask writing system (results reported in this meeting) w One SLM (16 µm mirrors, 1 MPixel) (1): Sandström, et al.

8 Systems Engineering Alternative Pixel Geometries Tilt Phase-Step Tilt Piston Operating Principle Phase interference between each half of mirror creates net intensity thru tilt. Like tilt with λ/4 phase step. Provides balanced intensity range for 0 o and 180 o phase. Pure phase manipulation. Interference with neighboring mirrors manipulates intensity. Phase & Intensity Range 0 o phase: 0% - 100% 180 o phase: 0% - 4% 0 o phase: 0% - 50% 180 o phase: 0% - 50% Any phase between 0 o and 360 o : 0% - 100% ASML is actively engaging with all SLM suppliers to evaluate actuation principles and alternatives. / Slide 8
9 Tilt SLMs Principle of Image Formation Tilt Mirror Intensity Bright (full reflection into pupil) when mirror is at zero tilt Gray Tone (partial reflection into pupil) at intermediate tilt positions Attenuated Phase Shift (reflection into pupil with 180 o phase shift) when mirror tilt is beyond λ/4 height difference edge-to-edge Capable of emulating the imaging capabilities of binary and att-psm masks. / Slide 9
10 Phase-Step Tilt SLMs emulate alt-psm and CPLTM Masks Clear Dark Attenuated Shifted Dark (no reflection into pupil) when mirror is at zero tilt Bright (70% reflection), symmetrical in positive and negative phase Gray Tone (partial reflection into pupil) at intermediate tilt positions for both positive and negative phase Im(Refl) [Phase] Re(Refl) [Amplitude] Amplitude +0.7 Tilt α / Slide 10
11 Piston SLMs emulate also alt-psm, CPLTM and multi-phase masks Gray Tone (grouped mirrors for destructive interference) by alternating pistons in checkerboard pattern. w Gray-tone based on relative heights in checkerboard w Phase based on the average height of the checkerboard Phase Edge (line interference) by alternating rows / columns of height. / Slide 11
12 Writing Strategy: Loading and Writing a Pattern 1. Break die pattern into stripes. 2. Break stripe into micro-stripes. Each micro-stripe spans one row of SLMs in the array. Micro-shot n Micro-shot n+1 Micro-shot n+2 3. Load full micro-stripes into each SLMs drive electronics. 4. Address the position of the next stamp in the micro-stripe. This address determines the pattern data from the die to be included in stamp. + = Idealized pattern SLM data calibration Data to be sent to SLM 5. For each stamp, apply pixel calibration data and send final processed image to SLM. 6. Wafer is printed by controlling the sequence of stamps and stripes across all SLMs in the array. / Slide 12
13 Writing Strategy: Field Writing Strategies Field Writing Strategy I A given stripe in all fields on the wafer is exposed before proceeding to the next stripe Field Writing Strategy II All stripes in a given row of fields are exposed proceeding to the next row of fields Field Writing Strategy III All stripes in a given field are exposed proceeding to the next field in the column The data path architecture can be configured for different field writing strategies. / Slide 13
