Definitions
- This invention relates to optical systems and apparatus employing index matching media. More particularly, the invention relates optical systems and apparatus employing index matching media for use with short-wavelength electromagnetic radiation.
- optical systems examples include photolithograhic systems.
- photolithographic systems light is projected onto a resist for the purpose of patterning an electronic device.
- Photolithographic systems have been a mainstay of semiconductor device patterning for the last three decades and are expected to continue in that role down to 70 nm resolution
- Angle ⁇ o is the angular semi-aperture of the system
- n is the index of the material filling the space between the system and the substrate to be patterned.
- Immersion lithography provides another possibility for increasing the ⁇ A of an optical system, such as a lithographic system.
- a substrate is immersed in a high-index fluid (also referred to as an immersion medium), such that the space between a final optical element and the substrate is filled with a high-index fluid (i.e., n > 1).
- immersion provides the possibility of increasing resolution beyond the free-space theoretical limit of one.
- immersion lithography has not been implemented in commercial semiconductor processing partly because improvements in resolution by conventional methods have been possible, but also partly because of a lack of immersion fluids that have appropriate optical transmission characteristics and chemical compatibility with lithographic systems.
- immersion media that are compatible with lithographic systems, particularly those systems having an operative wavelength below 220 nm. It should be understood that the phrase "immersion medium” is used herein to identify an "index-matching medium” used to immerse an object (e.g., a substrate).
- aspects of the invention include optical systems using perfluoropolyethers (PFPEs) as index matching media.
- PFPEs perfluoropolyethers
- an index matching medium is used to immerse an object (e.g., a substrate in a lithographic system), and in other aspects the PFPE is used as an index matching medium between two optical surfaces of an arbitrary optical system.
- Further aspects of the invention include systems for performing immersion lithography at wavelengths below 220 nm, e.g., 193 and 157 nm.
- a first aspect of the invention is an optical system for transmitting light, comprising an optical surface, and a PFPE medium contacting at least a portion of the optical surface, the PFPE medium configured to transmit at least a portion of the transmitted light.
- the optical system may further comprise a second optical surface, the PFPE medium contacting at least a portion of the second optical surface.
- the optical system may be a collection optical system or a projection optical system.

- FIG. 1A is a schematic drawing of a first embodiment of an optical system 100 illustrating aspects of the present invention.
- Optical system 100 includes an optical subsystem 110 and an index matching medium 120.
- System 100 may transmit light projected onto object 150, and/or collect light from object 150.
- optical subsystem 110 may be a projection optical system (e.g., a photolighographic system) or a collection optical system (e.g., a microscope).
- Light 152 projected from system 100 can be any known type of light capable of being transmitted by index matching medium 120 (e.g., light of any transmitted wavelength, light that is coherent or incoherent, light that is pulsed or continuous).
- Light 151 provided by object 150 can be any known type of light capable of being transmitted by index matching medium 120, and may include redirected light 131 from a source 130 (e.g., light scattered by object 150) or light generated by object 150 (e.g., object 150 is self-luminescent) .
- Optical surface 115 (also referred to as a "final optical surface”) is the optical surface of system 100 that is most proximate object 150.
- Final optical surface 115 can be convex, concave, piano, diffractive or any other known optical surface.
- Index matching medium 120 fills a space between final optical surface 115 of optical subsystem 110, and object 150, such that index matching medium 120 makes contact with at least a portion of optical surface 115 and at least a portion of object 150, and continuously fills the space between surface 115 and object 150. Accordingly, at least a portion of the light transmitted by system 100 is transmitted by index matching medium 120.
- index matching medium 120 is used as immersion medium, and is substantially transparent at one or more wavelengths or wavelength bands below 220 nm.
- Particularly useful materials are materials that are transparent at wavelengths of light commonly used for lithography, for example wavelengths at or about 193 or 157 nm.
- index matching medium 120 is substantially transparent to light at the operative wavelengths of system 100, and the transmission of the material remains constant during a single exposure to the light. More preferably medium 120 does not degrade with exposure to radiation, e.g., the material does not become increasingly opaque with increasing exposure. In practice, medium 120 will likely undergo some degradation and may be replaced from time to time, either as a whole or by a continuous stream of fresh medium 120.
- medium 120 provides low or substantially zero scattering of light projected through said medium.
- the amount of scattering that can be tolerated depends on the specific system with which medium 120 is used. Scattering can be determined by projecting a collimated beam, having a known beam profile, through a portion of a medium and comparing the beam profile to the known beam profile.
- index matching medium 120 is any liquid that transmits light at the operative wavelengths of system 100, and that is capable of maintaining optical contact with at least a portion of final optic surface 115 and object 150.
- transmission may be measured using any known method of measuring transmission. It is to be understood that the adequate transmission is determined by the specific application with which a medium is used.
- immersion materials appropriate for use with this invention include perfluoropolyethers (PFPE).
- FIGs. 2a, 2b, and 2c are schematic illustrations of three examples of classes of PFPE structures appropriate for use with the present invention. The classes of PFPEs illustrated in FIGs.

- Demnum TM, Fomblin Y ® , and Fomblin Z ® are available from the Ausimont Corporation of Thorofare, New Jersey.
- index matching medium 120 may be a liquid which coats object 150 and forms a continuous optical contact (i.e., a meniscus) between object 150 and final optical surface 115.
- object 150 and the final optical surface 115 could be coated with an index matching medium 120 that is resilient, such as a gel.
- a gel index matching medium 120 can be brought into optical contact with object 150 and final optical surface 115 with pressure to form a continuous optical contact.
- Object 150 may be chemically or physically cleaned of index matching medium 120 before subsequent processing of object 150.
- the index matching material 120 may function as a resist material; such a resist would be deposited on the substrate (e.g., substrate 550 in FIG. 5), and have sufficient resilience to make continuous optical contact directly with a final optical surface 115 that is brought into contact with the resist.
- An index matching material 120 that functions as a resist may eliminate the need for a separate index matching medium between the resist and the final optical surface 115, providing the advantage of eliminating extra processing involved with having a separate resist and index matching medium.
- FIG. IB is a schematic illustration of two surfaces 162, 165 of an optical system 160 (e.g., optical subsystem 100 in FIG. 1) illustrating aspects of the present invention.
- Optical system 160 may include any number of optical surfaces in addition to optical surfaces 162, 164.
- Surfaces 162 and 164 can be convex, concave, piano, diffractive or any other known optical shape.
- Index matching medium 120 fills a space between surfaces 162 and 164, such that index matching medium 120 makes optical contact with at least a portion of optical surface 162 and at least a portion of object 164, and continuously fills a space between surfaces 162 and 164.
- FIG. 3 is a graphical representation of absorbance of Fomblin Z ® as a function of wavelength.
- FIG. 3 illustrates that polyfluorinated polyethers (PFPE), are substantially transparent at wavelengths below 200 nm and in particular, at both 193 and 157 nm.
- Fomblin Z ® has an absorbance a on the order of 10 "3 ⁇ m "1 at 157 nm. Accordingly, Fomblin Z ® provides 90% transmission at a working distance of 50 ⁇ m.
- FIG. 4A is a graphical representation of transmission of a sample of Fomblin Z ® as a function of wavelength for cumulative dose levels of 1, 10 and 100 J/cm 2 .
- the sample included a layer of Fomblin Z having a thickness of 150 ⁇ m.
- the sample was located between (i.e., sandwiched between) two CaF 2 windows, each window having a thickness of 2 mm.
- FIG. 4A illustrates that Fomblin Z ® is substantially resistant to laser damage at wavelengths greater than 157 nm.
- the transmission of the sample at 157 nm drops only 17%.
- These data indicate that several thousand pulses could be transmitted by an optical system, using Fomblin Z ® as an index matching medium, with less than 1% change in transmission.
- the data illustrate that several thousand substrates could be exposed using projection system 500 in FIG. 5 below, where Fomblin Z ® is used as an index matching medium 634.
- FIG. 4B is a graphical representation of transmission of a sample of Fomblin Y ® as a function of wavelength for cumulative dose levels of 1, 10 and 100 J/cm 2 .
- PFPEs, such as Fomblin Y ® that are damaged more readily may be replaced more frequently to maintain sufficient transmission.
- FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of one example of an embodiment of a projection system 500 according to aspects of the present invention.
- Projection system 500 comprises an electromagnetic radiation source 502, an imaging system 510, and an index matching medium 530.
- System 500 may be any suitable lithographic system, such as a conventional stepper or a scanner lithographic system.
- system 500 has an imaging system 510 capable of accommodating the NA arising from having index matching medium 530 between optical system 530 and a photosensitive material 550.
- Source 502 generates an input beam 505.
- source 502 generates at least quasi-coherent illumination.
- source 502 can include a lamp or a laser light source.
- source 502 generates light at or below 220 nm.
- source 502 is an excimer laser.
- Imaging system 510 images a mask 520 onto photosensitive material 550.
- Imaging system 510 includes a final optic 504 having a final optical surface 505.
- Final optic is any optic having optical power and suitable for imaging mask 520.
- final optic has a piano final optical surface 505.
- Photosensitive material 550 can be any known photosensitive material, e.g., a photographic film or a photolithographic resist on a semiconductor substrate.
- Mask 520 can be any suitable known mask for use with light source module 502, and imaging module 510.
- Index matching medium 530 fills a space between the final optical surface 505 ⁇ and material 550.
- Index matching medium 530 is in optical contact with at least a portion of the final optical surface 505 and at least a portion of a surface of material 550, and continuously fills a space between final surface 505 and object 550.
- Index matching medium 530 is any suitable medium transparent at the operative wavelength of system 500.
- Index matching medium 530 may be any index matching medium 120 as described above with reference to FIG. 1 and FIGs. 2a - 2c.
- index matching medium may be a PFPE.
- system 500 could alternatively an interference optical system such as the system described in U. S. Patent Application Serial No. 09/994,147, entitled “Interferometric Projection System” by Bloomstein, et al., the substance of said application is hereby incorporated by reference.
- Final optic 504 is located close enough (e.g., 50 micrometers) to a surface of material 550 to allow index matching medium 530 to make optical contact with at least a portion of a final surface 505 of final optic 504, and a portion of the surface of material 550.
- a liquid handling system (not shown) may be added to contain index matching medium 530.
- the liquid handling system provides an apparatus to replace index matching fluid 530 intermittently after a selected number of exposures.
- a liquid handling system providing a continuous stream of index matching fluid 530 may be used. It should be understood that in non-imaging systems, such as interference lithographic systems, final optic 504 may be a prism.
- final optical 504 should have optical power; in an interference lithographic system, because of the discrete nature of the pattern forming light (i.e., the pattern forming light is comprised of two or more interfering beams), a prism provides the requisite optical power.
- the prism has one surface normal to a first of the interfering beams, a second surface normal two a second of the interfering beam, and a flat final surface 505 having an angle with both the first surface and second surface.
- the final surface 505 is parallel to a surface of material 550.
- index matching medium 530 is reasonably closely index-matched to final optic 504. More preferably, the index of the index matching fluid is substantially the same as the final optic.
- final optic 504 is made of CaF 2 having an index of 1.56 at a wavelength of 157 nm
- index matching medium 530 is made of PFPE having an index of 1.37 - 1.38 at a wavelength of 157 nm.
- index matching medium 530 is less than the index of final optic 504, the NA may be limited by total internal reflection at the interface of final optic 504 and index matching medium 530. Any index mismatch will contribute to decreased (and angularly- dependant) transmission of light, and increased scattering of light.
- index matching medium 530 preferably does not interact with material 550 in a manner that would impede image formation.
- material 550 is not soluble in index matching medium 530, and index matching medium 530 does not chemically react with material 550 (e.g., in lithographic embodiments of the present invention, even part-per-billion levels of base in the immersion medium can prevent high resolution imaging in acid-catalyzed resists typically used at 193 and 157 nm).
- it is preferable that index matching medium 530 is compatible with the cleanroom environment in which semiconductors are manufactured, as well as with other processes to which semiconductors are subjected.
- Resists appropriate for use with lithographic embodiments of the present invention have appropriate photosensitivity at a selected operational wavelength. Resists preferably have an index of refraction that is insensitive to heat (e.g., heat arising from exposure to the operational wavelength of light) so as to prevent image distortion in the resist. In embodiments of the present invention operated at highNAs, resists preferably do not polarize light as a function of pupil position. Preferably, resists for use with lithographic embodiments of the present invention do not dissolve or chemically react with index matching medium 530 in the presence photons of the operative wavelength of light. Resists appropriate for use may be positive or negative chemically-amplified resists containing a protected polymer and a photoacid generator.
- a base additive may be included.
- a resist appropriate for use with the present invention is a copolymer of p-hydroxystyrene and t-butyl acrylate. In some embodiments there is a monomer ratio of 60% p-hydroxystyrene and 40% t-butyl acrylate, and a photoacid generator of di-t-butylphenyl iodonium camphor sulfonate both in an ethyl lactate solvent.
- a base additive of tetrabutyl amonium hydroxide may be included.
- the copolymer, photoacid generator, base and solvent are mixed in a ratio of 94 parts, 6 parts, 1.2 parts, and 2757 parts respectively. Further details of resists appropriate for use with the present invention are given in U.S. Provisional Patent Application 09/851,952, filed May 9, 2001, entitled “Resists with Reduced Line Edge Roughness,” by T. Fedynyshyn.
- Projection system 500 may be contained in a housing (not shown) which provides a mechanical base for the optical components.
- the housing may also be used to contain any inert gas used to purge the system of air (e.g., using N 2 ), as is the standard practice in lithographic systems operating at wavelengths below 650 nm.
- the housing may rest on translation and rotation stages (not shown) to align the system 500 with material 550. Further, the whole assembly may be supported by a vibration isolation system (not shown), as in conventional lithographic systems.
- lithographic systems according to the present invention are achieved by re-designing or converting a conventional "dry" (i.e., non-immersion) lithographic system for use as an immersion lithographic system, thus allowing many portions of conventional systems to be used to generate higher resolution.
- projection systems and wafer handling portions of conventional lithographic systems may be modified to accommodate an index matching fluid.
- lithographic systems appropriate for use with index matching media include but are not limited to known lithographic systems, where an immersion medium is placed between the system and the substrate to be patterned, and the projection system has been modified using conventional optical design techniques to operate at an increased NA (e.g., an NA of 1.3 at 157 nm).
- System 600 determines the ability of an index matching medium 610 to adequately fill a region 615 between a test final optic 620, and a moving test substrate 630.
- the adequacy of a given index matching medium may be dependent on the ability of an index matching medium 530 to fill the space between the final optic 504 and substrate 550 at a given scanning speed.
- the ability of a given index matching medium to fill the space between the final optic 504 and substrate 550 for a given speed is at least partially dependent on the viscosity of the index matching medium.
- test final optic 620 is maintained a selected distance (e.g., 100 micrometers ) above moving test substrate 630, and a camera 640 is used to image a pattern formed on test substrate 630. By viewing the pattern through test final optical 620, it can be determined if index matching medium 610 uniformly fills space 615.
- Test final optic 620 may be selected to be a block optic which, because a block optic has relatively poor hydrodynamics, represents a worst case scenario. Accordingly, an index matching medium (e.g., a PFPE) found to perform adequately using a block optic will likely perform adequately with any other final optic (e.g., a substantially spherical optical).
