Method of the present invention comprises following concrete steps:
Step 1, the test mask arranged in high-NA imaging system: described test mask comprises three groups of test badges: first group is the binary mask of optical grating construction, second group is the alternating phase-shift mask of phase shift 90 °, and the 3rd group is the alternating phase-shift mask of phase shift 180 °; Three groups of test masks are intensive linear, and the dutycycle of opaque lines and transparent lines is 1: 1.
The sensitivity coefficient of the strange item of zernike coefficient of wave aberration and the strange item correspondence of the orientation zernike coefficient of two-way delay in step 2, calculating Polarization aberration:
Setting polarization illumination mode is 45 ° of linearly polarized lights, and adopt quadrupole illuminating mode, as shown in Fig. 2 201, the interior coherence factor variation range of quadrupole illuminating is 0.47-0.67, and the variation range of the external coherence system factor is 0.62 ~ 0.82, and ring width is 0.15.Adopt the first group echo in test mask, i.e. the binary mask of optical grating construction, as shown in Fig. 2 203, the mechanical periodicity scope of test mask is 100nm-200nm.With this understanding, the strange item of wave aberration and the strange item of two-way delay can cause the map migration of test mask aerial image intensity distributions on desirable focal plane.By carrying out fourier series decomposition to the intensity distributions of aerial image, the map migration effect of aerial image is also converted into the phase shift of its single order intensity.In order to set up aberration with the relation between map migration, need first to utilize vector imaging theory to calculate the intensity distributions of aerial image.Under Three-beam Interfere condition, carry out fourier progression expanding method to the intensity distributions of test mask aerial image, its single order intensity distributions is:
Wherein, x irepresent the lateral coordinates of image planes, I 1(f 1) for the first-order spectrum of aerial image distributes, its form is

T = T xx T xy T yx T yy T zx T zy
And for the transposition mutually of single order intensity, its definition is:
Like this, the map migration that aberration causes just is converted into the transposition mutually of single order intensity change.Under 45 ° of linearly polarized light illuminations, E = 2 2 , 2 2 T , By the TCC function TCC of matrix form vbe expressed as the form of numerical value, the value obtaining TCC function is:
TCC = TCC x + TCC y + TCC z = J xx · J xx * · B 1 + J yy · J yy * · B 2 + J xy · J yx * · B 3 + J yx · J xy * · B 4
