<第1實施方式>
針對本發明的第1實施方式進行說明。圖1(a),為針對本實施方式的曝光裝置10的構成例進行繪示的圖。本實施方式的曝光裝置10,可包含照明光學系統IL、投影光學系統PO、保持原版12(遮罩)而移動的原版台MS、保持基板18而移動的基板台WS及控制部11。控制部11,例如由包含CPU等處理器、記憶體等的電腦(資訊處理裝置)構成,控制曝光裝置10的整體(各部分)。
<First Embodiment>
The first embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1(a) is a diagram illustrating a structural example of the
從光源(未圖示)射出的光,經由照明光學系統IL所包含的狹縫(未圖示),例如在原版12上形成在Y軸方向上較長的圓弧狀的照明區域。原版12和基板18,分別由原版台MS和基板台WS保持,經由投影光學系統PO配置在光學上大致共軛的位置(投影光學系統PO的物面和像面的位置)。投影光學系統PO,具有既定的投影倍率,將形成於原版12的圖案的像投影於基板18(即,將原版12的圖案成像於基板18)。然後,將原版台MS和基板台WS,在與投影光學系統PO的物面平行的方向(例如,圖1的(a)的Y軸方向)上,以與投影光學系統PO的投影倍率相應的速度比予以掃描。由此,可將形成於原版12的圖案轉印到基板上。The light emitted from the light source (not shown) passes through the slit (not shown) included in the illumination optical system IL, and forms an arc-shaped illumination area long in the Y-axis direction on the
投影光學系統PO,如圖1(a)所示,例如可包含低階校正機構13、平面鏡14、凹面鏡15、凸面鏡16以及高階校正機構17。從照明光學系統IL射出並通過原版12的光,通過低階校正機構13被平面鏡14的第1面14a反射,入射到凹面鏡15的第1面15a。在凹面鏡15的第1面15a反射的光,在凸面鏡16被反射,入射到凹面鏡15的第2面15b。在凹面鏡15的第2面15b反射的光,在平面鏡14的第2面14b被反射,通過高階校正機構17在基板上成像。在如此般構成的投影光學系統PO,凸面鏡16的反射面成為光學光瞳。The projection optical system PO, as shown in FIG. 1(a) , may include, for example, a low-
然而,在曝光裝置10中,透過投影光學系統PO在基板上成像的圖案的位置及/或形狀有時會產生誤差(以下,有時記載為成像誤差)。如此之成像誤差,有時亦被稱為曝光誤差、像差,可能因由原版台MS、基板台MS的驅動產生的振動、由曝光熱造成的光學構件的變形、環境振動、曝光裝置之間的精度的差異(亦稱為機差)等各種因素而引起。因此,在曝光裝置10中,設有用於對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正的複數個校正機構,透過驅動複數個校正機構的各者,從而對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正。However, in the
在本實施方式的曝光裝置10中,作為對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正的複數個校正機構,例如可使用低階校正機構13、高階校正機構17、原版台MS以及基板台WS中的2者以上。但是,不限於此,亦可將可對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正的除上述以外的機構用作為校正機構。例如,在投影光學系統PO為包含透鏡的構成的情況下,亦可將驅動該透鏡的機構用作為校正機構。In the
在此,針對作為校正機構而設於投影光學系統PO的低階校正機構13和高階校正機構17的構成例進行說明。低階校正機構13,為供於對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差之中的低階成分的一部分進行校正用的機構,可配置在原版12(原版台MS)與平面鏡14的第1面14a之間的光路上。另外,高階校正機構17,為供於對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差之中的高階成分進行校正用的機構,可配置在平面鏡14的第2面14b與基板18(基板台WS)之間的光路上。高階校正機構17,根據其構成,亦可對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差之中的低階成分的一部分進行校正。在本實施方式中,低階成分,指成像誤差中的不足3階的成分,高階成分,指成像誤差中的3階以上的成分。Here, a structural example of the low-
圖1(b),為針對低階校正機構13的構成例進行繪示的圖。低階校正機構13,包含具有凸面的光學元件13a和具有凹面的光學元件13b,被構成為光學元件13a的凸面與光學元件13b的凹面隔開間隔Gap(空氣間隔)而相對。低階校正機構13,在控制部11的控制下,透過致動器等驅動部(未圖示),如圖1(b)的箭頭所示,使光學元件13a和光學元件13b,在Z軸方向(上下方向)及/或XY面方向(橫向)上相對移動。由此,作為成像誤差的低階成分,可對投影光學系統PO的倍率進行校正。FIG. 1( b ) is a diagram illustrating a structural example of the low-
圖2,為針對高階校正機構17的構成例進行繪示的圖。圖2(a),為從光軸方向(Z軸方向)觀看高階校正機構17時的圖;圖2(b)~(c),為從垂直於光軸方向的方向(X軸方向)觀看高階校正機構17時的圖。高階校正機構17,例如可包含被構成為平行平面板的光學元件17a和配置於光學元件17a的周圍的複數個致動器17b。高階校正機構17,在控制部11的控制下,透過複數個致動器17b的各者,對光學元件17a的外周施力,使光學元件17a的有效光學區域ER(光通過的區域)變形。例如,如圖2(c)所示,向箭頭方向驅動各致動器17b,使光學元件17a的有效光學區域ER變形。由此,不限於投影光學系統PO的成像誤差的低階成分,亦可對高階成分進行校正。在高階校正機構17,致動器17b的數量越多,越可增大可校正的成像誤差的階數,惟亦考慮到實際的配置空間、製造成本等約束而被構成為佳。FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a structural example of the high-
[光學裝置的構成]
以下,針對光學裝置20的構成例進行說明。圖3,為針對本實施方式的光學裝置20的構成例進行繪示的示意圖。光學裝置20,為對使原版12的圖案成像在作為被成像面的基板18上的投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正的裝置,包含複數個校正機構21和控制部22(處理部)。在圖3之例,作為複數個校正機構21,設有校正機構M1~Mn(n為校正機構21的數量)。
[Construction of optical device]
Hereinafter, a structural example of the
複數個校正機構21的各者,包含構造物21a和驅動部21b,為透過由驅動部21b驅動構造物21a而使構造物21a的位置、姿勢及/或形狀變化,從而使投影光學系統PO的成像性能(成像特性)變化的機構。例如,在校正機構21為低階校正機構13的情況下,構造物21a為光學元件13a~13b,驅動部21b為使光學元件13a~13b相對移動的致動器。在校正機構21為高階校正機構17的情況下,構造物21a為光學元件17a,驅動部21b為驅動光學元件17a的複數個致動器17b。另外,校正機構21,亦可為透過使原版台MS及/或基板台WS並進或傾斜,從而使投影光學系統PO的成像性能變化的機構。在該情況下,校正機構21的構造物21a,為原版台MS及/或基板台WS,驅動部21b,為驅動原版台MS及/或基板台WS的致動器。Each of the plurality of
控制部22,例如由具有CPU等處理器、記憶體的電腦構成,控制複數個校正機構21的各個校正機構。在本實施方式的情況下,控制部22,可具備保存部22a(記憶體)、演算部22b(處理器)以及驅動指示部22c(驅動器)。保存部22a(記憶部),保存(記憶)後述的統合感度矩陣。演算部22b,基於保存在保存部22a中的統合感度矩陣和應校正的投影光學系統PO的成像誤差,決定(算出)各校正機構21的目標驅動量。驅動指示部22c,按照由演算部22b決定的目標驅動量,對各校正機構21給予驅動指示來控制各校正機構21的驅動。The
在此,保存在保存部22a中的統合感度矩陣,如圖4所示,可透過將針對複數個校正機構21的各個校正機構而取得的成像感度矩陣作為矩陣元素而在橫向上結合(連結、統合)從而生成。成像感度矩陣,表示投影光學系統PO的成像相對於作為求出成像感度矩陣的對象的1個校正機構21(以下,有時表述為對象校正機構21)的驅動的變化程度。成像感度矩陣,亦可理解為將基板18(被成像面)中的各評價點的位置的變化表示為矩陣者。Here, as shown in FIG. 4 , the integrated sensitivity matrix stored in the
以下,具體說明成像感度矩陣及統合感度矩陣的生成方法、為了對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正所需的各校正機構21的目標驅動量的決定方法。Hereinafter, the method of generating the imaging sensitivity matrix and the integrated sensitivity matrix, and the method of determining the target drive amount of each
首先,針對各校正機構21的成像感度矩陣進行說明。本實施方式中使用的成像感度,指以預先決定的驅動量(單位驅動量)驅動1個構成對象校正機構21的驅動部21b的致動器時的被成像面(光學區域)上的評價點的成像性能(例如位置)的變化量。驅動1個致動器而得到的成像感度,一般而言,在被成像面上使用複數個評價點,因此成為向量。並且,成像性能,指扭曲或焦點的變動量如此之校正所需的光學指標。First, the imaging sensitivity matrix of each
透過以既定的驅動量依次驅動對象校正機構21的驅動部21b中的各致動器,從而得到與致動器的數量相應的成像感度向量。並且,將此等向量排列而成為矩陣者即為成像感度矩陣。在將被成像面上的評價點的數量設為m、將第k個校正機構21的致動器的數量設為p
k、將驅動第i個致動器時的各評價點的成像性能的變化量向量設為c
i時,成像感度矩陣C
k可透過以下的式(1)來表示。各校正機構21的成像感度矩陣,可透過各校正機構21的分析模型求出,亦可透過將校正機構21搭載於曝光裝置10並實測投影光學系統PO的成像性能來求出。
By sequentially driving each actuator in the driving part 21b of the
接著,針對統合感度矩陣進行說明。本實施方式的統合感度矩陣,為使針對複數個校正機構21分別取得的複數個成像感度矩陣以橫向排列的方式結合,表觀上成為一個成像感度矩陣者。若將統合感度矩陣設為C,則可如以下的式(2)般表示,統合感度矩陣C的維度為「m×r」。其中r=(p
1+p
2+…+p
n),p
1、p

n,表示分別設於校正機構M1~Mn的致動器的數量。因而,r表示各校正機構的致動器的合計。如此般,透過使各校正機構的成像感度矩陣在橫向上結合,可生成統合感度矩陣。一般而言,統合感度矩陣,由於評價點的數量m與致動器的合計r不相等,因此不會成為方陣。另外,成像感度矩陣,可由演算部22b事前生成而保存於保存部22a。
Next, the integrated sensitivity matrix will be described. The integrated sensitivity matrix of this embodiment combines a plurality of imaging sensitivity matrices respectively obtained for a plurality of
在此,在作為對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正的校正機構而使用原版台MS及/或基板台WS的情況下,致動器的數量,不是物理上的致動器的數量,而為可在各載台進行校正的校正自由度的數量。例如,2個面內並進自由度(X軸方向、Y軸方向)、傾斜3自由度(繞X軸的旋轉方向、繞Y軸的旋轉方向、繞Z軸的旋轉方向)等。另外,在低階校正機構13、高階校正機構17等調整光學元件的位置及/或姿勢來對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正的校正機構的情況下,同樣地,致動器的數量,亦成為校正機構的校正自由度的數量。Here, when the master stage MS and/or the substrate stage WS are used as a correction mechanism for correcting the imaging error of the projection optical system PO, the number of actuators is not the number of physical actuators but is the number of correction degrees of freedom that can be performed on each stage. For example, 2 degrees of freedom for in-plane translation (X-axis direction, Y-axis direction), 3 degrees of freedom for tilt (rotation direction about the X-axis, rotation direction about the Y-axis, rotation direction about the Z-axis), etc. In addition, in the case of correction mechanisms such as the low-
接著,針對演算部22b中的各校正機構21的目標驅動量的決定方法進行說明。要針對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正,需要事前準備表示應校正的投影光學系統PO的成像誤差的資訊/資料(以下,有時表述為成像誤差資訊)。成像誤差資訊,為表示基板18(被成像面)上的各評價點的成像誤差(例如重疊誤差)的資訊,可表示為具有與評價點的數量相同數量的矩陣元素的矩陣(例如向量)。另外,成像誤差資訊,可為具有與上述成像感度矩陣的矩陣元素相同數量的矩陣元素的矩陣。成像誤差資訊,可基於由外部的檢查裝置測定了由曝光裝置10形成了圖案的基板的重疊誤差的結果、在曝光裝置10內實測了投影光學系統PO的成像性能的結果,或可基於進行了曝光模擬的結果來生成。所生成的成像誤差資訊,可供給到控制部22的演算部22b。在圖3,示出了成像誤差資訊從外部裝置供給到演算部22b之例,惟亦可事前保存在保存部22a中。Next, a method for determining the target drive amount of each
演算部22b,基於投影光學系統PO的成像誤差資訊和保存在保存部22a中的統合感度矩陣,決定(算出)各校正機構21的目標驅動量。具體而言,透過求解界定統合感度矩陣(第1矩陣)、使各校正機構21的目標驅動量為矩陣元素的驅動量矩陣(第2矩陣)、由成像誤差資訊所成的成像誤差矩陣(第3矩陣)的關係的方程式,來決定各校正機構21的目標驅動量。一般而言,驅動量矩陣,為各驅動機構的致動器的數量合計r×1的向量,成像誤差矩陣為評價點的數量m×1的向量。該方程式,若將統合感度矩陣設為C,將驅動量矩陣設為D,將成像誤差矩陣設為S時,則可透過以下的式(3)來表示。The
如前述般,由於統合感度矩陣C非方陣,因此不存在反矩陣,無法根據式(3)唯一地求出驅動量矩陣D。因此,驅動量矩陣D,可使用統合感度矩陣C的虛擬反矩陣(或者廣義反矩陣)來求出。在此情況下,驅動量矩陣D,成為如式(4)。As mentioned above, since the integrated sensitivity matrix C is not a square matrix, there is no inverse matrix, and the driving amount matrix D cannot be uniquely obtained based on equation (3). Therefore, the drive amount matrix D can be obtained using the virtual inverse matrix (or generalized inverse matrix) of the integrated sensitivity matrix C. In this case, the drive amount matrix D becomes as shown in equation (4).
此處, ,為統合感度矩陣的虛擬反矩陣,基於該虛擬反矩陣的聯立方程式的求解方法,在數學上與最小平方法等效。另外,如此般求出的驅動量矩陣 ,被作為將各校正機構M1~Mn的目標驅動量作為矩陣元素排列而成的矩陣而獲得,具有如下述之含義。亦即,根據虛擬反矩陣的特性,在統合感度矩陣的列數m比行數r多的縱長矩陣的情況下,求出的驅動量矩陣 ,成為使式(5)最小的最小平方解。 Here, , is the virtual inverse matrix of the unified sensitivity matrix, and the method of solving simultaneous equations based on this virtual inverse matrix is mathematically equivalent to the least squares method. In addition, the driving amount matrix obtained in this way , is obtained as a matrix in which the target drive amounts of each correction mechanism M1 to Mn are arranged as matrix elements, and has the following meaning. That is, based on the characteristics of the virtual inverse matrix, when a longitudinal matrix in which the number of columns m of the integrated sensitivity matrix is greater than the number of rows r is combined, the driving amount matrix is obtained , becomes the least square solution that minimizes equation (5).
另一方面,在統合感度矩陣的列數m比行數r少的橫寬矩陣的情況下,求出的驅動量矩陣
,其範數
成為最小。此表示,在驅動校正機構21的致動器來對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正時,向該致動器投入的能量成為最小。
On the other hand, when integrating a width matrix in which the number of columns m of the integrated sensitivity matrix is less than the number of rows r, the drive amount matrix is obtained , its norm Be the smallest. This means that when the actuator of the
亦即,為了使投影光學系統PO的成像誤差的校正精度提高,與作成橫寬的統合感度矩陣相比,作成縱長的統合感度矩陣較佳。另一方面,在欲盡可能地減少向校正機構21投入的能量的情況下,與作成縱長的統合感度矩陣相比,作成橫寬的統合感度矩陣較佳。橫寬的統合感度矩陣的作成方法,基本上與縱長的統合感度矩陣的作成方法相同,橫向地結合各個校正機構的成像感度矩陣即可。其中,評價點的數量m比將各校正機構21的致動器的數量(或校正自由度的數量)合計得到的數量r少為特徵。That is, in order to improve the correction accuracy of the imaging error of the projection optical system PO, it is better to form a vertically long integrated sensitivity matrix than to form a horizontally wide integrated sensitivity matrix. On the other hand, when it is desired to reduce the energy input to the
在此,在本實施方式,在作成統合感度矩陣時雖使各成像感度矩陣在橫向上結合,惟亦可將各成像感度矩陣轉置(即,列成為評價點的排列,行成為致動器的排列)後在縱向上結合。此情況下,在進行矩陣計算時需要將統合感度矩陣轉置而使用。Here, in this embodiment, when creating the integrated sensitivity matrix, each imaging sensitivity matrix is combined laterally, but each imaging sensitivity matrix may be transposed (that is, the columns become the arrangement of evaluation points, and the rows become the actuators). arrangement) and then combined in the longitudinal direction. In this case, the integrated sensitivity matrix needs to be transposed when performing matrix calculations.

在步驟S11,控制部22,取得針對複數個校正機構21的各個校正機構的成像感度矩陣。亦即,控制部22取得針對複數個校正機構21分別得到的複數個成像感度矩陣。成像感度矩陣,如前述般,可透過分析模型或實測來求出。接著,在步驟S12中,控制部22基於在步驟S11中取得的複數個成像感度矩陣,生成統合感度矩陣。如前述般,統合感度矩陣,可透過將複數個成像感度矩陣分別作為矩陣元素排列予以結合從而生成。In step S11 , the
在步驟S13,控制部22,取得表示應校正的投影光學系統PO的成像誤差的資訊(成像誤差資訊)。如前述般,成像誤差資訊,可根據外部的檢查裝置對重疊誤差的計測結果、曝光裝置10內的實測結果、曝光模擬的結果等而生成。In step S13, the
在步驟S14,控制部22,生成界定在步驟S12中生成的統合感度矩陣(第1矩陣)、在步驟S13中取得的成像誤差矩陣(第3矩陣)以及表示各校正機構21的目標驅動量的驅動量矩陣(第2矩陣)的關係的方程式。例如,控制部22,在將統合感度矩陣設為C、將驅動量矩陣設為D、將成像誤差矩陣設為S時,如上述的式(3)所示,可生成由S=CD所成的方程式。In step S14 , the
在步驟S15,控制部22,透過求解在步驟S14中生成的方程式,決定各校正機構21的目標驅動量。接著,在步驟S16,控制部22按照在步驟S15決定的各校正機構21的目標驅動量,經由驅動指示部22c驅動各校正機構21。In step S15, the
如上述般,在本實施方式,使用將針對複數個校正機構21的各者所取得的結合感度矩陣(複數個結合感度矩陣)作為矩陣元素的統合感度矩陣,決定用於減低投影光學系統PO的成像誤差的各校正機構21的目標驅動量。由此,能以減低投影光學系統PO的成像誤差的方式,在複數個校正機構21的整體上精度良好地進行校正。As described above, in this embodiment, an integrated sensitivity matrix using a combined sensitivity matrix (a plurality of combined sensitivity matrices) obtained for each of the plurality of
<第2實施方式> 針對本發明的第2實施方式進行說明。本實施方式,為基本上繼承第1實施方式者,除以下提及的事項以外,與在第1實施方式說明的內容相同。 <Second Embodiment> A second embodiment of the present invention will be described. This embodiment basically succeeds the first embodiment, and is the same as that described in the first embodiment except for the matters mentioned below.
圖7,為用於說明本實施方式的演算部22b中的演算處理的圖。本實施方式的演算部22b,如圖7所示,在求出各校正機構21的目標驅動量時,以滿足既定的約束條件的方式求解帶約束的方程式,即進行帶約束的最佳化。在此,約束條件,包含校正機構21的物理上的約束及來自投影光學系統PO或曝光裝置10的系統要求的約束。另外,約束條件,可為等式約束條件,亦可為不等式約束條件。FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining the calculation processing in the
首先,針對校正機構21的物理上的約束進行說明。校正機構的物理上的約束,例如如如前述的高階校正機構17(參照圖2)般,需要在透過使用複數個致動器17b使光學元件17a變形從而對投影光學系統PO的成像誤差進行校正的校正機構(變形機構)中考慮。在高階校正機構17,取決於用於使光學元件17a變形的各致動器17b的驅動量(例如,相鄰的致動器17b彼此的驅動量之差),有可能對光學元件17a施加過度的應力,光學元件17a發生破裂。因此,需要限制複數個致動器17b(特別是相鄰的致動器17b彼此)的驅動量的差分Δh,以使得在光學元件17a產生的應力不足破壞應力。因此,可使在光學元件17a產生的應力不足破壞應力的複數個致動器17b的驅動量的差分Δh,被用作為約束條件為佳。例如,若將相鄰的致動器17b的間隔設為L,則Δh/L越大,施加於光學元件17a的應力越大,若超過破壞應力則發生破裂。因此,基於致動器17b的間隔L,在光學元件17a產生的應力不足破壞應力的範圍內的最大驅動量的差分Δh,可被用作為約束條件。另外,被賦予物理上的約束條件的校正機構,不限定於高階校正機構17等進行光學元件的變形驅動的校正機構(變形機構)。First, the physical constraints of the
接著,針對來自投影光學系統PO或曝光裝置10的系統要求的約束進行說明。作為來自該系統要求的約束條件,考慮驅動複數個校正機構21所產生的副作用。例如,在調整(變更)光學元件等構造物的位置及/或姿勢的校正機構21,可校正所期望的成像誤差(第1成像誤差,例如扭曲(distortion))。然而,當驅動該校正機構21以校正所期望的成像誤差時,有時與所期望的成像誤差不同種類的成像誤差(第2成像誤差,例如像散成分),會作為副作用而產生(增加)。因而,需要以作為副作用而產生的第2成像誤差(像散成分)落入於容許範圍內(成為容許值以下)的方式驅動複數個校正機構21的各個校正機構,此可被用作為約束條件。另外,來自系統要求的約束條件,不限定於上述之例。Next, constraints imposed by the system requirements of the projection optical system PO or the
如此般,在存在物理上的約束和來自系統要求的約束的情況下,在求出驅動量矩陣 時應用帶約束的最佳化手法為佳。帶約束的最佳化手法方面,包括障礙函數法、懲罰函數法、拉格朗日乘法、序列二次規劃法、連續線性規劃法等各種的種類,雖分別存在擅長/不擅長問題,惟只要選擇適於解決的問題的方法即可。例如,在使用MathWorks公司的數值分析軟體matlab的情況下,可使用針對帶約束的線性最小平方問題的lsqlin如此之函數。作為物理上的約束條件,若將用於算出相鄰的致動器彼此的驅動量的差分的矩陣設為A,將該相鄰的致動器彼此的驅動量的差分的容許值設為b,則約束條件式,由以下的式(6)表示。 In this way, when there are physical constraints and constraints from system requirements, the driving quantity matrix is obtained It is better to use constrained optimization techniques. In terms of constrained optimization techniques, they include various types such as obstacle function method, penalty function method, Lagrangian multiplication, sequential quadratic programming method, continuous linear programming method, etc. Although there are problems of being good at/not good at each, as long as Just choose the method appropriate to the problem you're solving. For example, when using the numerical analysis software matlab of The MathWorks Company, you can use the lsqlin function for constrained linear least squares problems. As a physical constraint, let the matrix used to calculate the difference in drive amounts between adjacent actuators be A, and the allowable value of the difference in drive amounts between adjacent actuators be b , then the constraint condition expression is expressed by the following equation (6).
在此,若對矩陣A乘以驅動量矩陣D,則得到驅動量的差分。因而,透過帶約束而得到的驅動量矩陣 ,能以matlab表示為以下的式(7)。另外,上述之例,為使用了matlab的函數的一例,亦可為其他最佳化計算工具或自製的最佳化計算工具。 Here, when matrix A is multiplied by drive amount matrix D, the difference in drive amount is obtained. Therefore, the driving quantity matrix obtained by band constraints , can be expressed as the following equation (7) in matlab. In addition, the above example is an example using a function of MATLAB, and it can also be other optimization calculation tools or self-made optimization calculation tools.
<第3實施方式> 針對本發明的第3實施方式進行說明。在本實施方式,為基本上繼承第1實施方式者,除以下提及的事項以外,與在第2實施方式說明的內容相同。此外,在本實施方式,亦可應用第2實施方式(亦即,帶約束的最佳化)。 <3rd Embodiment> A third embodiment of the present invention will be described. This embodiment is basically inherited from the first embodiment, and is the same as that described in the second embodiment except for the matters mentioned below. In addition, in this embodiment, the second embodiment (that is, optimization with constraints) can also be applied.
在本實施方式,針對具備前述的低階校正機構13和高階校正機構17的光學裝置20的校正方法進行說明。圖8,為針對本實施方式的光學裝置20的構成例進行繪示的示意圖。在該情況下,統合感度矩陣,由低階校正機構13的成像感度矩陣和高階校正機構17的感度矩陣生成。一般而言,低階的成像誤差,與高階的成像誤差相比,誤差量(純量)大,低階校正機構13的校正量,比高階校正機構17大。高階校正機構17,雖亦可校正低階的成像誤差,惟如在第2實施方式說明般,存在防止光學元件17a的破裂如此之物理上的約束,無法無限制地增大相鄰的致動器17b彼此的驅動量的差分。因此,透過對高階校正機構17設定驅動量的差分的約束條件,可與低階校正機構13協作而安全且準確地校正從低階到高階的成像誤差。在此,應用本實施方式的校正方法的低階校正機構和高階校正機構,不限於在第1實施方式說明的低階校正機構13和高階校正機構17。另外,不限定低階校正機構和高階校正機構的數量。In this embodiment, a correction method of the
