TL;DR: The PREVAIL projection reduction exposure with variable axis immersion lenses (PREVAIL) as discussed by the authors represents the high throughput e-beam projection approach to NGL, which IBM is pursuing in cooperation with Nikon as alliance partner.

Charged particle beam transfer method
Mamoru Nakasuji,Shintaro Kawata +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the charged particle beam transfer method was used to control adverse effect of distortion or blur that arises from the space charge effect due to the non-uniform pattern density to a minimum.
Patent
Electron-beam-projection-exposure apparatus with integrated mask inspection and cleaning portions
TL;DR: In this paper, an electron-beam scanner is used to scan a mask and then remove the contamination from the mask by a mask-cleaning system, after which the mask is used for exposing a sensitized substrate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial coherence of KrF excimer lasers
TL;DR: The spatial coherence and the beam divergence at 248 nm of a KrF excimer laser were obtained experimentally and in good agreement with the theoretical calculations based on a simple pulse-laser model and the van Cittert-Zernike theorem.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Kazuaki Suzuki,Tomoharu Fujiwara,Kazunari Hada,Noriyuki Hirayanagi,Shintaro Kawata,Kenji Morita,Kazuya Okamoto,Teruaki Okino,Sumito Shimizu,Takehisa Yahiro +9 more
TL;DR: Nikon EB stepper's dynamic writing strategy of discrete exposure on a sub-field by subfield basis with deflection control of the electron beam is explained in this article, where the basic system configuration of EB steppers is introduced.
