Description

Method for designing linear density of fringe by eliminating aberration and changing grating pitch in raster scanning photoetching
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of holographic grating manufacture, in particular to a design method of interference fringe line density of aberration-eliminating variable-pitch grating scanning photoetching.
Background
The aberration-eliminating variable-pitch grating is a plane grating with grating groove density changing according to a certain rule, and optical aberrations such as defocusing, spherical aberration and the like are corrected through the change of the grating groove density. Compared with the curved surface grating, the grating substrate is a plane, and the processing difficulty of the substrate is reduced. The meridian light incident to the grating with the variable grating pitch can form a spectrum line, extra collimating and focusing optical elements are not needed in a spectrum instrument, the volume and the weight of the instrument are reduced, the light energy utilization rate is improved, a high laser damage threshold value is achieved, and the method has important application in the fields of synchronous radiation light source devices, high-energy laser devices and the like.
The variable pitch grating is usually fabricated by mechanical scribing, electron beam direct writing, laser direct writing, holographic exposure and the like. The manufacturing modes of mechanical scribing, electron beams, laser direct writing and the like belong to ultra-precision machining, the machining of grating grooves is completed line by line, the manufacturing efficiency is low, and the change of adjacent grating pitches of the variable-pitch grating is generally not more than the nanometer level, so that the requirements on corresponding ultra-precision machining equipment and machining conditions are high, and the manufacturing difficulty and the manufacturing cost are high. The conventional holographic exposure method for manufacturing the grating pitch-variable grating can adopt a spherical wave or aspheric wave exposure system, but the adjustable freedom of the spherical wave exposure system is less, and the problem of groove bending exists, which can cause the reduction of the resolution capability of the grating. Aspheric wave exposure system design, processing and debugging difficulty are large, the process is not easy to realize, and large error exists between the actual grating groove density and the expected value.
The variable period scanning photoetching is another important method for manufacturing the variable grating pitch grating, an interference optical system forms an interference pattern with a small caliber (micrometer-millimeter magnitude), a two-dimensional worktable bears a grating substrate to carry out step scanning movement, relative movement is generated between the interference pattern and the grating substrate, and interference fringes are recorded in photoresist coated on the grating substrate until the exposure of the whole effective area of the grating substrate is completed. In order to realize the manufacture of the variable-pitch grating, in the exposure process, the interference included angle of a coherent light beam is changed through precise photoelectric control according to the change function of the line density of the interference fringe for photoetching, and the line density of the interference fringe is continuously and precisely adjusted, so that the groove density of the manufactured grating meets the requirement of a design index. The variable-pitch grating manufactured by the manufacturing method has no problem of groove bending, hundreds of interference fringes exist in the interference pattern, the manufacturing efficiency is greatly improved, and a large-caliber optical system is not needed when large-area grating manufacturing is carried out.
However, if the density variation function of the interference fringe lines is equal to the target groove density function of the variable-pitch grating, the density of the interference fringe lines is adjusted, and the groove density of the manufactured variable-pitch grating has larger deviation from a design value. This is mainly due to the following two reasons that when the line density of the interference fringes is changed by the variable-period scanning lithography system, the line densities of all the interference fringes in the interference pattern change equally, and the precise adjustment of the interference fringes from one line pitch to another cannot be realized. And the intensity distribution of the interference patterns is Gaussian distribution, in order to ensure the uniformity of the exposure, a certain overlap exists between the interference patterns of adjacent scanning sections, and the manufactured grating groove distribution has a homogenization effect.
The establishment of a design method of interference fringe line density is a key problem in the application of the variable period scanning lithography technology. The invention provides a method for designing the linear density of interference fringes for aberration-eliminating variable-pitch grating scanning lithography, according to the linear density change function of the interference fringes designed by the method, the linear density of the interference fringes in the lithography process is changed, and the groove density of the variable-pitch grating finally obtained can meet the design index requirement.

The grating substrate 9 is coated with photoresist, and the two-dimensional motion worktable 10 is used for bearing the grating substrate 9 to carry out step-and-scan motion.
The method proposed by the present embodiment comprises the following steps:
step one, determining a groove density function of the variable-pitch grating and manufacturing parameters of a general photoetching process.

In view of the basic composition and operation of a variable period scanning lithography system, as shown in FIG. 1, to ensure uniformity of exposure, there is overlap between the interference patterns of adjacent scan segments. According to the design, the installation and adjustment parameters of the system and the groove density function of the variable-pitch grating, the following manufacturing parameters are determined when the variable-period grating is manufactured:
the radius of the Gaussian beam waist of the interference pattern is Rho
The overlapping width of the interference patterns of adjacent scanning segments accounts for the ratio StepRatio of the beam waist radius, so that the overlapping width of the interference patterns is StepRatio × RhoIn order to ensure the uniformity of the exposure, StepRatio is required to be less than 0.9, and the smaller StepRatio is, the higher the uniformity of the exposure is, but the larger the total number of scanning steps is, the lower the manufacturing efficiency is. As shown in fig. 3.
The total step number N of step scanning is more than or equal to Wg/(RhoStepRatio) +1, making the width of the exposed area larger than the effective width of the grating.
