Description

Nanoscale two-dimensional displacement measuring device and method based on super-surface grating
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of optical precision displacement measurement, in particular to a nano-scale two-dimensional displacement measurement device and method for a super-surface grating.
Background
Optical displacement measurement plays an important role as a rapid, non-contact method in the field of semiconductor manufacturing and the like. Along with the extension of the photoetching technology to process nodes of 10 nanometers and below in the advanced integrated circuit manufacturing, the photoetching technology meets the requirement of sub-nanometer level on the alignment precision, and simultaneously, the requirement on multi-degree-of-freedom displacement measurement is also provided.
Diffraction-based overlay error measurement (DBO) is one of the most commonly used methods, which has proven to be an effective overlay error measurement technique with sub-nanometer measurement accuracy and good repeatability, and is widely used in lithography in industry. However, to achieve two-dimensional in-plane displacement measurements, DBO markers typically need to contain multiple sets of gratings, taking up a large amount of wafer area, resulting in a low number of final devices. On the other hand, in the field of nanophotonics, various optical precision displacement measurement schemes with high integration level have appeared in recent years, for example, a scheme of combining optical antenna pair with structural light illumination can reach sub-nanometer resolution, but only one-dimensional displacement can be measured, and the method is not suitable for a scene of multi-dimensional displacement measurement. The directional scattering by utilizing the spherical optical antenna can be used for in-plane two-dimensional displacement measurement, but the measurement range is only hundred nanometers, and a complex imaging post-processing process is required, so that the problems of low signal reading speed, low signal-to-noise ratio and the like exist.
Therefore, there is a need to develop a two-dimensional displacement measurement scheme with high measurement accuracy, wide range, simple signal reading and integration.
