Description
本願は、2003年10月8日に出願された特願2003−349550号に対し優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。
R=k1・λ/NA … (1)
δ=±k2・λ/NA2 … (2)
ここで、λは露光波長、NAは投影光学系の開口数、k1、k2はプロセス係数である。(1)式、(2)式より、解像度Rを高めるために、露光波長λを短くして、開口数NAを大きくすると、焦点深度δが狭くなることが分かる。
マスクM上の所定の照明領域は照明光学系ILにより均一な照度分布の露光光ELで照明される。照明光学系ILから射出される露光光ELとしては、例えば水銀ランプから射出される紫外域の輝線(g線、h線、i線)及びKrFエキシマレーザ光(波長248nm)等の遠紫外光(DUV光)や、ArFエキシマレーザ光(波長193nm)及びF2レーザ光(波長157nm)等の真空紫外光(VUV光)などが用いられる。本実施形態では、ArFエキシマレーザ光を用いた場合を例に挙げて説明する。
なお、光学素子2は水との親和性が高い石英であってもよい。また光学素子2の液体接触面2aに親水化(親液化)処理を施して、液体LQとの親和性をより高めるようにしてもよい。
塗布装置Cから露光前の基板Pが第3アーム部材H3によってプリアライメント部PALに渡される。プリアライメント部PALは露光前の基板Pの大まかな位置合わせを行う。次いで、撮像装置80が位置合わせをされた露光前の基板Pの表面を撮像する。こうして、露光前の基板Pの表面に関する第1情報(撮像情報)が取得される(ステップS1)。取得された基板Pの表面に関する第1情報は制御装置CONTに記憶される。
露光処理後の基板Pの表面に関する第2情報を取得した後、露光処理後の基板Pを保持した第2アーム部材H2は、カバー部材70の内部に開口部71より進入し、露光処理後の基板Pを保持テーブルHTに搬送する。
基板Pの表面に液体LQが付着しているときの撮像状態と付着していないときの撮像状態とは互いに異なるので、制御装置CONTは露光前の基板P表面の撮像情報と露光後の基板P表面の撮像情報とを比較することにより、液体LQが付着してるか否かを検出することができる。また、ステップS1の撮像時の基板Pの位置とステップS3の撮像時の基板Pの位置とが合致していれば、制御装置CONTは、基板Pに付着している液体(液滴)の位置に関する情報や、その液滴の大きさに関する情報も求めることができる。
ステップS5においてしきい値以下であると判断した場合、制御装置CONTは液体除去動作は不要であると判断し、第4アーム部材H4などを使って保持テーブルHTから基板Pをインターフェース部IFを介して現像装置Dに搬送する。つまり、基板P上に付着している液体LQの量が僅か(しきい値以下)であってデバイス性能やプロセス処理(現像処理)に影響を与えない程度であれば、制御装置CONTは液体除去動作は不要であると判断する。これにより、基板Pに液体LQが付着していないにもかかわらず液体除去システム100を使って再び液体除去動作を行うことを防止し、作業効率を向上することができる。なお上記しきい値は予め実験などによって求められ、制御装置CONTに記憶されている。
ステップS4において、基板P上に付着している液体LQの量(液滴の大きさ)や位置情報が検出されているため、制御装置CONTは、例えば付着している液体LQの量(液滴の大きさ)に基づいて、吹付ノズル103より吹き付ける気体の流速(単位時間あたり吹き付ける気体量)や吹き付け時間を設定する。あるいは、基板Pに付着している液体LQの位置情報に基づいて、吹付ノズル103で気体を吹き付ける基板P上の位置を設定する。こうすることにより、例えば付着している液体量が少ない場合には、液体除去動作時間(気体吹き付け時間)を短時間に設定して作業時間を短縮でき、一方、付着している液体量が多い場合には、液体除去動作時間(気体吹き付け時間)を長時間に設定して液体LQを確実に除去することができる。
液体検出器90は、基板Pの表面に付着している液体LQを光学的に検出するものであって、露光後の基板Pの表面に対して検出光を照射する照射系91と、基板Pの表面で反射した検出光を受光する受光系92とを備えている。なおここでは、基板Pをプリアライメント部PALで保持した状態でその基板Pに検出光を照射するが、基板Pの搬送経路のうちプリアライメント部PALとは別の位置に設けられた所定の保持部材に保持した状態で検出光を照射してもよい。
