Description
Technical field
The invention belongs to accurate vibration isolation technical field, relate generally to the eddy-current damping vibration isolator of a kind of coplanar air supporting crossing decoupling and the decoupling zero of air-floating ball bearing angle.
Background technique
Along with improving constantly of Ultra-precision Turning and measuring accuracy, ambient vibration becomes the key factor that restriction Ultra-precision Turning equipment improves with surveying instrument precision and performance.Especially step-by-step scanning photo-etching device is the vlsi circuit process unit of representative, technology-intensive degree and complexity high, key technical index all reaches the limit of prior art, represent the highest level of Ultra-precision Turning equipment, precision isolation system becomes the core key technology in this type of equipment; The live width of step-by-step scanning photo-etching device has reached 22nm and following, silicon chip positioning precision and alignment precision all reach a few nanometer, and work stage movement velocity reaches more than 1m/s, work stage acceleration reaches tens times of gravity accleration, and this proposes new challenge to existing vibration isolation technique.First, lithography machine needs for metering system and photoetched object lens provide the working environment of " super quiet ", need again to drive simultaneously work stage at full speed with High acceleration motion, this proposes extremely harsh requirement to the anti-vibration performance of vibrating isolation system, and the natural frequency in its three directions all needs to reach below 1Hz; Secondly, relative position between each parts of lithography machine, the distance of such as photoetched object lens and silicon chip surface, all there is very strict requirement, and under the control being in position closed loop feedback control system, require that the relative positional accuracy between the upper and lower mounting plate of vibration isolator reaches 10 μm of magnitudes, the positioning precision of traditional vibration isolator can not meet the demands far away.
According to theory of vibration isolation, the natural frequency of passive type vibration isolator is directly proportional to rigidity, be inversely proportional to load quality, therefore, under the prerequisite that load quality is certain, the rigidity reducing vibration isolator is the effective way reducing natural frequency, improve low frequency and superlow frequency vibration isolating performance.There are the intrinsic contradictions of static bearing capacity and rigidity in the vibration isolator of the forms such as conventional air bellows, restrict by the factor such as material behavior, structural rigidity simultaneously, will reduce its rigidity, especially level further very difficult to rigidity.For this problem, " pendulum " formula structure is incorporated in air cushion shock absorber by researcher, reaches object (the 1.Nikon Corporation.Vibration Isolator With Low Lateral Stiffness.

U.S. Patent number: US005844664A).The method can reduce the horizontal rigidity of air cushion shock absorber to a certain extent, promotes its low frequency vibration isolation performance.The method Problems existing is: 1) restrict by material behavior and structural rigidity, the vertical limited extent reduced to rigidity with level of vibration isolator; 2) the vertical and level of air cushion shock absorber is all very poor to positioning precision, cannot meet the requirement of photoetching process; 3) lower horizontal rigidity to be reached and need larger pendulum length, cause vibration isolator height excessive, easily string membrane resonance occurs, poor stability.

U.S. Patent Publication No.: US20080193061A1).Program employing is vertical carries out decoupling zero and vibration isolation to air bearing surface to the vibration of all directions with level, can reach extremely low rigidity and natural frequency.Program Problems existing is: 1) in public technology scheme, vibration isolator cannot realize accurate location; 2), in patent EP1803965A2, there is not the angular motion degrees of freedom around horizontal rotational shaft between upper and lower mounting plate, the angular rigidity in this direction and natural frequency are all very high; Patent EP1803970A2 and US20080193061A1 adopts block rubber to provide angular motion degrees of freedom around horizontal rotational shaft for upper and lower mounting plate, but because block rubber angular rigidity is very large, effectively cannot carry out angular motion freedom decoupling, there is frictional force between decoupling mechanism component and introduce larger additional stiffness, restriction natural frequency and low frequency vibration isolation performance.
