Description

A kind of dual wavelength anti-reflection film for excimer laser and optical film thickness monitoring system
Technical field
This utility model is related to deep knowledge base instrument field and in particular to a kind of double for excimer laser Wavelength anti-reflection film and optical film thickness monitoring system.
Background technology
Excimer laser is a kind of gas laser, and its working gas is mainly by highly stable lazy of chemical property under normality Property gas atom argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and the more active halogen atom fluorine (F) of chemical property, chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), Iodine (I) forms.Intert-gas atoms will not form molecule with other atoms in general, if but mix with halogen atom, And with discharge type excitation, excited state molecule just can be produced.Then it is reduced to atom when excited state molecule transition returns to ground state again, And release photon, photon launches laser after resonator cavity amplification.Because the molecule of this excited state is fleeting, its life-span It is only few tens of nano-seconds, therefore claims its " quasi-molecule ", the laser of its transmitting claims its excimer laser.
Excimer laser has more than ten kinds so far, and most important wavelength is 157nm (F2), 193nm (ArF), 248nm (KrF), 308nm (XeCl) and 351nm (XeF) etc., that wherein most widely used is 193nm and 248nm in deep ultraviolet band, institute Meaning deep ultraviolet (DUV), often refers to wave band 190nm~280nm, and wavelength then claims VUV (VUV) less than 190nm, wavelength is more than 280nm then claims near ultraviolet (NUV).
Deep knowledge base has obvious feature:First, deep ultraviolet laser belongs to cold laser, makees with biological tissue What the used time occurred is not heat effect, but photochemical reaction, so-called photochemical reaction, when referring to that tissue is subject to deep ultraviolet laser to act on, Molecule associative key will be interrupted and Direct Resolution volatilization, and do not affect surrounding tissue, thus in laser medicine, particularly in ophthalmology With there is in cardiovascular treatment important application.Secondly, deep ultraviolet laser output wave length, particularly wavelength 193nm is in Deep ultraviolet and VUV edge, it is still can be in atmosphere with the minimal wave length compared with low-loss propagation, it is known that wavelength is got over Short, resolution is higher, so being highly suitable in semiconductor lithography process etching accurate pattern, this is IC chip system Make one of technology of middle most critical.Finally, the photon energy of deep ultraviolet laser is very high, in the photon energy of wavelength 193nm is 6.42eV, is 5eV in the photon energy of 248nm, and the power of Sing plus can reach hectowatt grade to MW class, the energy of Sing plus Amount up to several joules to tens joules, so being highly suitable for Laser focus, material process and as laser weapon etc..
This utility model is directed to a kind of dual wavelength anti-reflection film for deep knowledge base, with adapt to 193nm, The compatible deep knowledge base instrument of 248nm uses.But, on this wave band, not only the base material of high transparency is very Limited, and the thin-film material being suitable for is also very limited, particularly high-index material.More notably, even if only few Number several can material selection, due to the Electronic bandgap band gap of photon energy closely material, thus all can produce high absorption, Very short plus wavelength, surface scattering is also very high, so optical loss is very big, this does not only result in absorbance and substantially reduces, And lead to the destruction to thin film for the superlaser, Just because of this, the optical loss reducing thin film has become deep ultraviolet quasi-molecule to swash The difficult point of optical thin film device design, here it is this utility model waits the key problem explored and solve.
Utility model content
The purpose of this utility model is to provide a kind of dual wavelength anti-reflection film for excimer laser and be used for preparing this The optical film thickness monitoring system of anti-reflection film, to be applied to the excimer laser instrument of deep ultraviolet 193nm, 248nm compatibility.
Dual wavelength anti-reflection film for deep knowledge base of the present utility model, do not require nothing more than wavelength 193nm and 248nm has the residual reflectivity of low-down substrate surface, and requires anti-reflection film to have minimum absorption scattering loss, from And, not only make anti-reflection film obtain highest absorbance, and improve the threshold value to film destruction for the excimer laser.For this this practicality New design is as follows:
First, find extinction coefficient thin-film material as little as possible.It is necessary to be rolled over multiple for wavelength 193nm and 248nm Penetrate rate to describe the optical characteristics of thin-film material, complex refractivity index N is the function of wavelength X, is represented by:N (λ)=n (λ)-ik (λ), in formula, n (λ) is refractive index, and k (λ) claims extinction coefficient, and it can characterize the size absorbing scattering loss.To wavelength 193nm and 248nm is it is necessary first to be determined by experiment the various thin-film materials that may be applied to this wave band and its complex refractivity index.Secondly, By the complex refractivity index obtaining, high refractive index film and low-refraction membrane material are selected according to principle chosen below:1). high and low refraction The refractivity of rate bi-material is larger;2). the refractive index of low-index material is little as much as possible;3). more importantly high and low The extinction coefficient of refractive index bi-material will be sufficiently small;4). the machinery of material, chemical property disclosure satisfy that actually used wanting Ask.
Because thin-film material applies simultaneously to wavelength 193nm and 248nm, and the loss of wavelength 193nm is always than 248nm Greatly, so the photon energy of wavelength available 193nm and Electronic bandgap band gap the foundation of preliminary screening spillage of material might as well be used as. Make simple process:Because when photon energy h ν is equal to Electronic bandgap band gap EgWhen, just for the short-wave absorption belt edge of material, Then the wavelength X at material short-wave absorption edge can be obtained wherebyc, i.e. due to Eg=h ν=hc/ λc, in formula, h, ν, c are respectively Planck's constant, light frequency and the light velocity, the then wavelength X at short-wave absorption edgec=hc/Eg, to long wave further away from λc, light loss Less.If calculate lacking data, also can more simply utilize the relation of Refractive Index of Material n:n4c≈ constant, to this practicality New material, the constant of high-index material is about 42, and the constant of low-index material is about 35.Accordingly, this reality There is LaF with the new high-index material obtaining being likely to be suited for wavelength 193nm3And Al2O3, obtain being likely to be suited for wavelength The low-index material of 193nm mainly has MgF2And SiO2.Then these four materials are tested and tested inverting, obtained The complex refractivity index of wavelength 193nm and 248nm is as shown in table 1.
Table 1
As known from Table 1, although Al in two kinds of high-index materials2O3The refractive index of film is higher, thus can reach high and low The refractivity of refractive index bi-material is larger, but regrettably Al2O3Extinction coefficient k too big, it is advantageous to LaF3;Two kinds In low-index material, MgF2Refractive index less, Bees Wax k is also less, preferably MgF2.Thus determine LaF3With MgF2Respectively as the preferred high-index material of this utility model and low-index material.
Second, according to the material determining and complex refractivity index, the anti-reflection film of design high-transmission rate.According to preservation of energy:T+R+L =1, in formula, T represents the absorbance of anti-reflection film, and R represents the residual reflectivity of anti-reflection film, and L is the absorption scattering loss of anti-reflection film. In longer wavelengths of visible region, usually it is ignored because L is sufficiently small, as long as so final design can make reflectance enough Little, absorbance just can be close to 1;But to wavelength 193nm and 248nm, absorb scattering loss larger, so substrate table should be realized The low residual reflectivity in face, realizes the low-loss of thin film again simultaneously, and absorbance just can be made to reach greatly.In other words, in long wave The design in low-loss area is only substrate surface " antireflective ", therefore often claims antireflective coating;And in deep ultraviolet 193nm and 248nm, if Meter emphasis includes " antireflective " of substrate surface and " low-loss " of film layer, to obtain high-transmission rate, therefore claims anti-reflection film, and not Preferably claim antireflective coating again.According to this conception, during design anti-reflection film, residual reflectivity and absorption scattering loss are both included as The composition part of evaluation function, and be sufficient to unlike long wave low-loss area only evaluates residual reflectivity.
According to above-mentioned conception, from high-index material LaF3With low-index material MgF2, increasing in four kinds of quartz substrate The design result of permeable membrane is listed in table 2.By design result it can be found that:1). the high refractive index film of anti-reflection film and low refractive index film Total film layer number is even number, and wherein, odd-level is the LaF of high index of refraction3, even level is the MgF of low-refraction2;2). with anti-reflection Film total film layer number increases, and total thicknesses of layers accordingly thickens, residual reflectivity tend to reduce (can with two wavelength and evaluating), So only in terms of antireflecting effect, increasing total film layer number and be highly profitable, but, because total film layer number increases, total film layer Thickness tends to thicken, and the loss of thin film can steeply rise, and then final absorbance declines on the contrary, here it is of the present utility model Anti-reflection film and the essential distinction of conventional antireflective coating, in other words, in wavelength 193nm and 248nm it is impossible to only consider residual reflectivity Rate is it is often more important that the thin film loss of minimum and the absorbance of maximum will be considered, this not only can increase transmission potential, prior It is the threshold for resisting laser damage improving anti-reflection film;3). in wavelength 193nm and 248nm, because thin film loss is far longer than remnants instead Penetrate rate, so, on the premise of ensureing sufficiently small residual reflectivity, it is to close with the loss of minimum thin film or maximum transmission rate for criterion Reason, by this criterion, preferred version undoubtedly should select 4 minimum Rotating fields of film layer gross thickness, rather than residual reflectivity is less 6,8,10 Rotating fields.So, result can more preferably for the anti-reflection film of 2 Rotating fields?Answer is negative, because 2 Rotating fields Although thin film loss is really less than 4 layers, due to design parameter very little, it has been not enough to obtain the anti-reflection film of dual wavelength, namely right Wavelength 193nm and 248nm, 2 Rotating fields no solve.
Table 2
3rd, how to manufacture the dual wavelength anti-reflection film meeting design requirement.In deep ultraviolet, the problem of most critical is thickness prison Control.Prior art conventional two kinds of methods when solving deep ultraviolet film thickness monitoring:One is to control film quality using quartz crystal Obtain thickness, but the control error of this method is larger, very unsuitable;Two is independently to set up a set of photoelectricity film-thickness monitoring, but Because deep ultraviolet light source-optical system-receptor is completely different with visible region, so not only expensess are very big, and Time-consuming very long.The utility model proposes solve this problem with plate washer method, if taking the centre wavelength of 193nm and 248nm to be 220nm, then select visible ray to control wavelength 440nm, and plate washer used is precisely that gear removes the vapor molecule stream of half, plate washer design and Make not only simple but also accurate.So there is no need to change coater original blooming control system, as long as by plated film base Beneath face increases by one piece of plate washer it is possible to realize the thickness control of DUV area anti-reflection film with the photo-electric control of existing visible region System.

Compared with prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
1). the excimer laser anti-reflection film of prior art is only applicable to the situation of Single wavelength, such as the quasi-molecule of wavelength 193nm Laser anti-reflection film, excimer laser anti-reflection film of wavelength 248nm etc. are it is clear that these anti-reflection films are not applied for up-to-date proposition In the excimer laser instrument of 193nm and 248nm dual wavelength dual-purpose.But the excimer laser manufacturing and designing dual wavelength dual-purpose increases Permeable membrane, not only difficulty greatly increase, and, more notably, can be seen that the excimer laser of dual wavelength dual-purpose from Fig. 2 and Fig. 4 The thin film loss of anti-reflection film can be bigger many than Single wavelength anti-reflection film, and this is a very big challenge to the damage from laser of thin film.Study carefully Its reason, be primarily due to Single wavelength anti-reflection film gross thickness can ratio relatively thin, such as to wavelength 193nm, the gross thickness of anti-reflection film It is only 110nm, gross thickness 169.2nm the thinnest decreases about 1/3 than in dual wavelength anti-reflection film of the present utility model.Obviously, if Count and prepare low-loss dual wavelength anti-reflection film of crucial importance to deep knowledge base application.

Specific embodiment
This utility model to be implemented it may first have to find be expected for deep ultraviolet band high refractive index, thin film materials and The thin-film material of low-refraction.Because the loss of wavelength 193nm is always big than 248nm, it is possible to being applied to wavelength 193nm's Material, must also can be suitably used for wavelength 248nm.As such, it is possible to the photon energy by means of wavelength 193nm and Electronic bandgap band gap As the foundation of preliminary screening spillage of material, through screening, show that high-index material has LaF3And Al2O3, and low-refraction material Material is relatively more, such as MgF2、AlF3、CaF2And SiO2Deng, but comprehensive according to properties such as machinery, chemistry and optics, select MgF2With SiO2Relatively rationally.Then monolayer and multilayer film evaporation reality are carried out to this two kinds of high-index materials and two kinds of low-index materials Test and optical constant test inverting, Fig. 1 represents that these four thin-film materials of deep ultraviolet band are tested the refractive index (a) obtaining and disappeared Backscatter extinction logarithmic ratio (b) curve, wherein, two kinds of high refractive index films are as follows in the optical constant of wavelength 193nm:To LaF3, refractive index is 1.72, extinction coefficient are 7 × 10- 4;To Al2O3, refractive index is 1.83, and extinction coefficient are 6 × 10- 3.And two kinds of low refractive index films In the optical constant of wavelength 193nm it is:To MgF2, refractive index is 1.44, and extinction coefficient are 4.7 × 10- 4;To SiO2, refractive index For 1.57, extinction coefficient are 5.6 × 10- 4.Similarly, two kinds of high refractive index films are as follows in the optical constant of wavelength 248nm:Right LaF3, refractive index is 1.68, and extinction coefficient are 3 × 10- 4;To Al2O3, refractive index is 1.78, and extinction coefficient are 1 × 10- 3.And two Planting low refractive index film in the optical constant of wavelength 248nm is:To MgF2, refractive index is 1.41, and extinction coefficient are 1 × 10- 4;Right SiO2, refractive index is 1.53, and extinction coefficient are 1.1 × 10- 4.To high refractive index film, high refractive index means to obtain little Residual reflectivity.From the optical constant of test it is recognized that while Al2O3Refractive index be more than LaF3, but due to obtaining low extinction coefficient (low-loss) ratio obtains high index of refraction much more significant, therefore undoubtedly should the much smaller LaF of preferred extinction coefficient3.To low-refraction Film, lower refractive index means less residual reflectivity it is clear that in MgF2And SiO2Extinction coefficient much the same in the case of, Answer the MgF that preferred index is lower2.In the following embodiments, this utility model all takes high-index material LaF3With low refraction Rate material MgF2Implemented.
Fig. 2 is reflectance (solid line) and the loss (dotted line) of the deep knowledge base Single wavelength anti-reflection film of prior art Curve, wherein, (a) is wavelength 193nm, and (b) is wavelength 248nm.Although Single wavelength anti-reflection film 2 Rotating fields of prior art also have Solution, but can not be accepted because its residual reflectivity is still very high, and 3-tier architecture can obtain the result of satisfaction, this and total film The number of plies is that the dual wavelength anti-reflection film of even number has essential difference.To wavelength 193nm, total thicknesses of layers of 3-tier architecture is 110nm, residual reflectivity is zero, is lost as 0.379%;And to wavelength 248nm, total thicknesses of layers of 3-tier architecture is 145nm, residual Coreflection is zero, is lost as 0.129%.Regrettably, the Single wavelength anti-reflection film of prior art can not meet of the present utility model The use condition of dual wavelength anti-reflection film.
Similar to Fig. 2, Fig. 4 is the reflectance (solid line) of deep knowledge base dual wavelength anti-reflection film of the present utility model With loss (dotted line) curve ratio relatively, wherein, (a) film layer number is 10 layers, and (b) is 8 layers, and (c) is 6 layers, and (d) is 4 layers.It should be mentioned that , illustrate only 4 solutions in Fig. 4 it is clear that also having more solutions, but because the inevitable film layer number of these solutions is more, gross thickness Thicker, so its result will not better than this 4 solutions illustrating, thus also just there is no need to give again.

Embodiment 4 of the present utility model:Film layer number is 4 layers, and wherein odd-level is high-index material LaF3, even level is Low-index material MgF2.Film layer gross thickness is 169.2nm, from the beginning of substrate fused silica, each layer high and low refractive index alternate membrane Thickness be followed successively by:16.47,83.38,30.31,38.99, unit is nm, and Fig. 3 (d) represents its thicknesses of layers and refractive index Corresponding relation.The residual reflectivity of the present embodiment 4 and loss are shown in Fig. 4 (d), and its absorbance is shown in Fig. 5 (d), its medium wavelength The residual reflectivity of 193nm is 0.002%, is lost as 0.601%, and then one side absorbance can reach 99.397%, and wavelength The residual reflectivity of 248nm is 0.028%, is lost as 0.156%, and then one side absorbance can reach 99.816%.Obviously, originally Embodiment 4 has the thin film loss of minimum and maximum absorbance.
Can be seen that from above four embodiments:1). gradually decrease with dual wavelength anti-reflection film total film layer number, total film layer is thick Degree is accordingly thinning, residual reflectivity tend to be gradually increased (with two wavelength of 193nm and 248nm and evaluating);2). total film layer Number reduces, and total thicknesses of layers is thinning, and the loss of thin film strongly reduces, and absorbance increases.In other words, in deep ultraviolet wavelength, no Can only consider to obtain minimum residual reflectivity it is often more important that the thin film loss of minimum will be considered to obtain the transmission of maximum Rate, this not only can increase the transmission potential of thin film it is often more important that the anti-excimer laser damage threshold of thin film can be improved;3). In deep ultraviolet band, particularly wavelength 193nm, because thin film loss is far longer than residual reflectivity, it is advantageous to scheme is undoubtedly 4 minimum Rotating fields of film layer gross thickness should be selected, rather than less 6,8,10 Rotating fields of residual reflectivity;4). film layer number is more than 10 During layer, atomic to the contribution reducing residual reflectivity, but considerably increase film layer loss, therefore film layer number can not be more than 10 layers; 5). when film layer number is less than 4 layers, the dual wavelength anti-reflection film of 193nm and 248nm is no solved.
Manufacture above-mentioned deep ultraviolet dual wavelength anti-reflection film, the problem of most critical is how to implement film thickness monitoring, that is afraid of to the simplest 4 single film structure are also still such.As it was previously stated, the quartz crystal that prior art solves deep ultraviolet film thickness monitoring controls, film Thick control error is larger;And independently set up a set of DUV electrolemma apparatus for controlling thickness, not only cost but also time-consuming.For this reason, this practicality is new Type proposition solves this problem with plate washer method, so there is no need to change coater original blooming control system, as long as Increase the film thickness monitoring that one piece of plate washer can implement deep ultraviolet band below by plated film substrate.Fig. 6 is used by this utility model Baffle plate with by the configuration schematic diagram of the relative position of plated film substrate and original blooming control system.As shown in Fig. 6, Optical film thickness monitoring system is mainly made up of light source 6, condenser lenses 7, film thickness monitoring piece 8, optical filter 9 and receptor 10 etc..Often The thickness of layer film is all measured with monitoring piece 8.In Fig. 6,1 is electron beam evaporation source, and 2 is thermal resistance evaporation source, evaporates successively respectively High-index material LaF3With low-index material MgF2.Plated substrate 3 is placed on work piece holder disk 4 (actual in work piece holder disk 4 peripheries pile plated substrate 3, not only the plated substrate 3 only shown in figure), because during plated film, work piece holder disk 4 quickly turns Dynamic, so all plated suprabasil characteristics are the same.Thickness baffle plate 5 just nestles up the lower section being placed in plated substrate 3, to hide A part of thin-film material molecule when gear electron beam evaporation source 1 and thermal resistance evaporation source 2 evaporate respectively, obtains requirement in substrate Deep ultraviolet thickness.
Fig. 7 shows shape and the manufacture method of baffle plate used by this utility model, and wherein, (a) is bisection method, and (b) is eight Point-score.If taking the centre wavelength of 193nm and 248nm to be 220nm, visible ray is selected to control wavelength 440nm, plate washer needs to keep off just Remove half thin-film material vapor molecule stream, such plate washer design and making very simply again can be very accurate.As shown in Fig. 7 (a), The diameter of plate washer 5 is equal with work piece holder disk 4, to be installed to below work piece holder disk 4;The diameter of plate washer central circular hole 11 with Film thickness monitoring piece 8 is equal, so that the control light of wavelength 440nm all passes through;Keep off half vapor molecule stream, only need to be plate washer To dividing, clip half, retain another twilight-zone.If the thickness 440nm so on film thickness monitoring piece 8, then in quilt Thickness in plating substrate 3 is just 220nm.The shortcoming of this bisection method is that thin film growth affects thin film because interval time is longer Growth structure, for avoiding or mitigating this impact, proposes to adopt eight stepper plate, based on eight stepper plate utilize 45 ° of fan shape baffles, As shown in the shadow region of Fig. 7 (b), this makes to manufacture and design and remains to keep simple and accurate feature, but alleviates to stepper plate Shortcoming.
