In this paper we will present ASML's holistic approach to lithography for EUV. This total approach combines the various components needed to achieve the correct on-product demands of our customers in terms of patterning fidelity across the entire image field and across the entire wafer. We will start giving a general update on ASML's NXE scanner platform of which the 6 th NXE:3100 systems is now being shipped to a leading chipmaker. The emphasis will be on wafer imaging results for various applications such as flash memory and logic's SRAM. Then we will describe the second holistic component, NXE-computational lithography, which was developed to speed-up early learning on EUV and to achieve high accuracy on the wafers. Thirdly, the YieldStar angular-resolved scatterometry tool that supports the scanner's stability was used to characterize the system and calibrate the models. The wafer-results reveal in detail predicted imaging effects of NXE lithography and allow a calibration of system parameters and characterization of hardware components. We will demonstrate mask-induced imaging effects and propose an improvement of the current EUV blank or mask-making processes. |
