Abstract
Measurements of pulse-to-pulse energy fluctuation statistics were made at several wave-lengths for a commercial discharge pumped excimer laser, under a variety of operating conditions. Various approaches to achieving accurate exposure dose control in microlithographic exposure tools using noisy pulsed sources are discussed. A pulse-by-pulse active control technique for static field lithography is described in detail, together with measured performance data. Alternative techniques suitable for one dimensional scanning slit field exposure tools are presented.
