Popis: | Results of optimization of an excimer laser-induced plasma x-ray source for projection lithography in the range λ = 13–15 nm are reported. A conversion efficiency of >0.7% in 2% BW has been achieved with high-Z target materials. Two methods of reducing contamination of optical elements by target debris have been tested: usage of a thin target layer (for Ta 1 μm was found to be optimal) and of a heavy buffer gas. The effect of the use of Ta-tape target and Kr buffer gas has been measured by determining the reflectivity of a Mo-Si multilayer sample after 10 5 shots. |
