Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of lithography laser, in particular to an infrared seed light source and a laser system.
Background
With the continuous development of integrated circuit manufacturing technology, photolithography, one of the most important core technologies, is also put forth higher performance requirements. The feature size of the IC chip is an important parameter and is closely related to the wavelength of the light source used by the photoetching machine. From the Rayleigh criterion, the shorter the light source wavelength is, the smaller the feature size of chip processing is. The photoetching machine light source has undergone five generations of development of g-line (438 nm), i-line (365 nm), krF (248 nm), arF (193 nm) and EUV (13.5 nm), wherein the ArF excimer laser is the most widely applied light source in the photoetching machine due to the advantages of high power, narrow linewidth, short wavelength, high efficiency and the like. Compared with the traditional projection type photoetching technology adopting an illumination system and combining with complex projection objective imaging, the holographic photoetching technology for realizing photoetching by utilizing the diffraction and interference principles of coherent light has the advantages that the illumination system is relatively simple and does not need complex projection objective. Holographic lithography requires higher coherence of the laser, i.e. a laser with narrow linewidth and high beam quality M 2 Is excellent in performance, narrow linewidth corresponds to laser time coherence, and high in beam quality M 2 Spatial coherence of the corresponding laser; in addition, the power of the laser source affects the yield of the lithography machine, so the holographic lithography technology provides high power, narrow linewidth and high beam quality M for the laser source 2 Is required by the parameters of the system.
Compared with an ArF excimer laser, the solid 193nm wave band laser source can also provide deep ultraviolet laser with narrow linewidth smaller than 1pm, and the laser beam quality is better and is more suitable for holographic lithography. However, the output power of the solid 193nm laser source is low, mainly because the generation process of the 193nm solid source depends on nonlinear optical frequency conversion of crystals, so that the 193nm laser with high beam quality output by the solid laser can be used as seed light and then power amplification can be performed in the ArF excimer laser to obtain laser with high power, high beam quality and narrow linewidth. In the technical route for obtaining the 193nm solid laser, the output laser of the fundamental frequency light source is mainly obtained by utilizing various nonlinear crystals to carry out frequency multiplication or sum frequency, but the conversion efficiency of nonlinear optical frequency conversion is lower, and the frequency multiplication and sum frequency are needed to be carried out for a plurality of times in order to obtain the 193nm band laser, so that the output power of the fundamental frequency light source is required to be improved, and the finally output solid 193nm laser is required to be improved as much as possible.
Currently, erbium-doped fiber lasers in 1550nm bands are commonly used as infrared seed light sources for sum frequency output 193nm lasers. In the process that the erbium-doped fiber is used as a gain medium to absorb the pump light energy to realize light amplification, the erbium-doped fiber has an optimal length, the residual gain fiber exceeding the optimal length does not absorb the pump energy to cause insufficient pump energy absorption, and the residual pump light is converted into heat in the laser to increase the heat dissipation difficulty of the laser, so that the laser energy conversion efficiency is lower.

At present, 193nm deep ultraviolet laser is the most widely used light source in a photoetching machine, the 193nm deep ultraviolet laser can be obtained by nonlinear transformation of infrared laser with 1550nm wave band and infrared laser with 1030nm wave band, the existing mature technology can generate high-power infrared laser with 1030nm wave band, but the output power of the infrared laser with 1550nm wave band is still lower.
Based on the above, the embodiment of the invention provides an infrared seed light source for generating high-power 1550 nm-band infrared laser.
As shown in fig. 1, an infrared seed light source provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes: the device comprises a first pump source 1, a second pump source 2 and a ring resonant cavity, wherein the ring resonant cavity comprises a first wavelength division multiplexer 3, a gain optical fiber, a second wavelength division multiplexer 4 and an optical fiber coupler 7 which are sequentially connected and form a ring loop; the laser output by the first pump source 1 enters the gain fiber from one end of the gain fiber through the first wavelength division multiplexer 3 to provide pump energy for the gain fiber; the laser output by the second pump source 2 enters the gain fiber from the other end of the gain fiber through the second wavelength division multiplexer 4 to provide pump energy for the gain fiber; the gain fiber generates a first infrared laser under the excitation of the pump energy provided by the first pump source and the pump energy provided by the second pump source 2, and the first infrared laser is amplified in oscillation in the ring resonator and output through the fiber coupler 7.
Specifically, the wavelengths of the laser output by the first pump source 1 and the second pump source 2 are 980nm or 1480nm, and pumping modes such as electric pumping, chemical pumping, optical pumping, pneumatic pumping, semiconductor pumping and the like can be adopted, and the first pump source 1 and the second pump source 2 are laser diodes with the laser wavelength of 980 nm. The pump energy output by the first pump source 1 and the second pump source 2 respectively enter the gain fiber from two ends of the gain fiber and pump the gain fiber, and even if the gain fiber can not absorb the pump energy after exceeding the optimal length in one direction, the pump energy provided in the other direction can be absorbed, so that the gain fiber exceeding the optimal length can absorb the pump light to participate in the laser oscillation amplification in the ring resonator.
The working window of the first wavelength division multiplexer 3 and the second wavelength division multiplexer 4 is 1550/980nm, pump energy is provided for the gain optical fiber through the first wavelength division multiplexer 3 and the second wavelength division multiplexer 4, and then the first wavelength is used for pumpingThe ring resonant cavity formed by the division multiplexer 3, the gain optical fiber, the second wavelength division multiplexer 4 and the optical fiber coupler 7 is formed with laser oscillation amplification and output through the optical fiber coupler 7, the output laser center wavelength is 1550nm, and the output laser is marked as first infrared laser lambda 1 。
Wherein the split ratio of the fiber coupler 7 is 80:20, i.e. 20% of the light output, the remaining light continues to oscillate amplified in the ring resonator. Of course, the spectral ratio of the fiber coupler 7 may be adjusted according to the actual situation, and may be, for example, 70:30, 90:10, or the like.
It should be understood that, in the infrared seed light source according to the embodiment of the present invention, the optical elements such as the first wavelength division multiplexer 3, the gain fiber, the second wavelength division multiplexer 4 and the optical fiber coupler 7 are connected by a common commercial single mode optical fiber and a conventional optical fiber laser connection manner, including but not limited to fusion bonding, integral manufacturing, and the like, the fiber cores of the optical elements are the same in size, and the damage threshold of each optical element is greater than the total power input into the ring resonator by the first pump source 1 and the second pump source 2.
The infrared seed light source provided by the embodiment of the invention adopts a bidirectional pumping mode, and by adjusting the power of the first pumping source 1 and the second pumping source 2, the gain fiber exceeding the optimal length can also absorb the pumping light to participate in the laser oscillation amplification in the ring resonant cavity, so that the laser output with high power is realized, and meanwhile, the heat dissipation difficulty of the laser is increased by avoiding the conversion of residual pumping light into heat in the laser.
In some embodiments, the gain fiber comprises one, two or more sections of erbium doped fiber.
Specifically, the first pump source 1 and the second pump source 2 are semiconductor lasers output by tail fibers, and the total length of the gain fiber is determined by the total power of the pump sources, the intensity of a nonlinear spectrum in an output spectrum and the absorption coefficient of the used fiber.
The gain fiber length should satisfy the following equation:
wherein, the liquid crystal display device comprises a liquid crystal display device,for the length of the nth gain fiber, +.>For the absorption coefficient of the nth gain fiber, Q is determined by the total power of the pump source and the intensity of the nonlinear spectrum in the output spectrum.
Therefore, the gain fiber can select one section, two sections or multiple sections according to the absorption coefficient, and in order to realize the output of 1550nm infrared laser, the gain fiber is selected from erbium-doped fiber, in particular to erbium-doped fiber with high doping concentration, high gain erbium-doped fiber drawn by adopting fiber drawing technology, double-cladding erbium-doped fiber, polarization-preserving erbium-doped fiber and the like.
