A kind of multiplayer films in EUV and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to multiplayer films in EUV field, more particularly, to there is the extreme ultraviolet of infrared spectroscopy function
The design of multilayer film and preparation.
Background technology
In recent years, extreme ultraviolet photolithographic (euv lithograph, euvl) technology is widely developed.
Euvl is used 13.5nm wavelength light source as service band, is capable of more than ten nanometers, or even several receives
The lithographic line width of rice, and then the great integrated level increasing integrated circuit, to the miniaturization of electronic equipment,
Low-power consumption development is extremely important.
Extreme ultraviolet photolithographic equipment is typically made up of EUV light source, illuminator and projection objective.Wherein,
EUV light source provides the extreme ultraviolet radiation needed for photolithographic exposure.There is high-power and high-purity spectrum
EUV light source be the precondition realizing extreme ultraviolet photolithographic volume production, be also current extreme ultraviolet photolithographic skill
One of difficult point of art.
At present, extreme ultraviolet radiation can be produced by synchrotron radiation and high-temperature high-density plasma radiation.
In Practical Project, more had practical value based on the EUV light source of high-temperature high-density plasma radiation.
According to the different excitation principles of plasma, EUV light source can be divided into discharge plasma again
(discharge produced plasma, dpp) light source and laser plasma (laser produced
Plasma, lpp) light source two types.The former excites plasma using interelectrode electrion,
But because plasma distance electrode is nearer, inevitably hot injury is produced to electrode and fragment hits
Hit, limit the application of dpp light source.The latter excites plasma using driving laser bombardment target,
It is capable of high-power, stable extreme ultraviolet output, in recent years by extensive research and application.
The lpp light source being applied to extreme ultraviolet lithography is typically by driving light source, target system and collection system
Constitute.Wherein, drive light source general from the gas laser being capable of high-power output, such as co2
Laser instrument etc.;Target system is made up of target and target transmission mechanism, and common target has sn droplet target,
Xe gas target etc.;Collection system is to collect the extreme ultraviolet light beam that plasma resonance goes out, and is converged
To the device of intermediate focus (intermediate focus, if), generally use and be coated with extreme ultraviolet reflection
The ellipsoid of film is collected mirror to realize this function.Meanwhile, in order to reduce fragment, extreme ultraviolet photolithographic is set
The damage of standby middle illuminator, improves the spectral purity penetrating light, also can arrange in lpp light source and remove
Fragment system and spectrum purification system etc..In lpp light source, collect, through ellipsoid, the light bag that mirror is collected
Include extreme ultraviolet, DUV (deep ultraviolet, duv) and carry out the infrared of self-driven light source
Light (infrared, ir).Wherein, the heat effect that infrared light produces can cause reflecting mirror in optical system
Face deformation, strong influence image quality, meanwhile, the hot injury that infrared light causes also can significantly contract
The service life of short system.In this regard, research worker proposes multiple solutions.
2009, a kind of multiplayer films in EUV covering balzed grating, of Dutch fom laboratory design
Structure, is capable of the light splitting of infrared light and extreme ultraviolet, and then realizes the purification of light source light spectrum.

On the one hand, the invention provides a kind of multiplayer films in EUV, wherein, described multilayer film wraps successively
Include: substrate, the si/mo layer in multiple cycle, zigzag array structure layer and infrared reflecting layer.This
Bright proposing introduces zigzag array structure layer in mosi multilayer film upper surface, can be effectively realized red
Outer light and the light splitting of extreme ultraviolet, and then realize the spectrum purification of EUV light source.Euv and ir is many
Reflectance mechanism on tunic is different, and euv reflection is the superposition effect based on the reflection of periodic multilayer membrane interface
Really, ir reflection is the high reflectance to ir wave band based on metal (as mo).When multi-layer film surface is deposited
In one layer and the uneven infrared reflecting layer of multilamellar membrane interface, euv will reflect according to multilamellar membrane interface,
Ir will reflect according to infrared reflecting layer.For example, when infrared reflecting layer and multilamellar membrane interface have a degree
During angle (0 < a < 90), for equidirectional incident euv and ir, its reflected light will separate 2a degree.
In addition, constituting structure sheaf using si material, the absorption to euv for the surface structure can also be reduced.Thus,
The present invention proposes and introduces zigzag array structure layer in mosi multilayer film upper surface, realizes extreme ultraviolet
The spectrum purification in source.
Yet another aspect, present invention also offers a kind of preparation method of multiplayer films in EUV, including step
Rapid: s1, preparation substrate;S2, prepare the si/mo layer in multiple cycles on the substrate;S3,
Zigzag array structure layer is prepared on described si/mo layer;S4, on described zigzag array structure layer
Deposition infrared reflecting layer.
The beneficial effects of the present invention is: multiplayer films in EUV provided by the present invention can be effectively real
Existing infrared light and the light splitting of extreme ultraviolet, and then realize the spectrum purification of EUV light source.And, this
The impact inventing the reflectance to operation wavelength for the provided multiplayer films in EUV structure is less.
