光装置が提案されている。2. Description of the Related Art The distance between the final lens surface and the image plane of an optical system is called a working distance. The working distance of a projection optical system of a conventional exposure apparatus has been filled with air. This working distance is 10 m due to the intervening auto-focus optical system.
It was usual to take more than m. On the other hand, for a pattern to be transferred to a wafer, miniaturization of the pattern is increasingly desired, and for that purpose, it is necessary to shorten the exposure wavelength or increase the numerical aperture. However, there is a limit to the types of glass materials that can transmit short-wavelength light, so a liquid immersion type exposure device that reduces the exposure pattern by filling the working distance with liquid and increasing the numerical aperture is proposed. Have been.

屈折率を計測することが提案されている。In an immersion type exposure apparatus, there is a possibility that a refractive index distribution may occur due to a temperature distribution of a liquid interposed in a working distance. Therefore, the following technology has been proposed as a countermeasure against the deterioration of the imaging performance due to the temperature change of the liquid. That is, (a) a technique disclosed in FIG. 3 of U.S. Pat. No. 4,346,164 has been proposed as stabilizing the temperature by a liquid temperature stabilizing mechanism. In order to achieve this, a technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-124873 has been proposed.

However, it is necessary to control the temperature with an unprecedented precision. Regarding item (i), it is difficult to say that it is an effective countermeasure in consideration of the fact that the temperature of the liquid has the greatest influence on the imaging performance. As described above, in the conventionally known technology relating to the immersion type exposure apparatus, there is no example that mentions the constraint on the optical parameter itself of the projection optical system such as the working distance, and the special circumstances of the immersion type are considered. I could not say it. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a liquid immersion type exposure apparatus which facilitates temperature control of a liquid satisfying a working distance and does not cause deterioration of imaging performance.

That is, the present invention has a projection optical system for printing and transferring a pattern drawn on a reticle onto a wafer.

The distance from the glass surface at the tip of the projection optical system to the imaging surface, that is, the working distance is L, the width of the temperature distribution of the medium satisfying the working distance L is ΔT, and the aberration of the imaging wavefront caused by this temperature distribution ΔT Is ΔF and the temperature coefficient of the refractive index of the liquid is N, the following formula (1) is approximately established. ΔF = L × | N | × ΔT (1)

It is assumed that a temperature distribution of about 0.01 ° C. exists. Therefore, the imaging wavefront aberration ΔF has at least ΔF = L × | N | × 0.01 (1a). Here, N is 1 / the temperature coefficient of the refractive index.
It is a value expressed in ° C.

面収差ΔFは以下のようになる。 空気:ΔF=10mm×|−9×10-7/℃|×0.01℃ =0.09nm 水 :ΔF=10mm×|−8×10-5/℃|×0.01℃ =8.0nmThe value of the temperature coefficient N of the refractive index greatly differs between liquid and gas. For example, N = -9 × 10 −7 / ° C. for air, whereas N = −8 × 10 − for water. 5 / ° C, with a difference of nearly 100 times. On the other hand, the working distance L of the projection optical system of the reduction projection exposure apparatus is usually L> 1.
Although it is 0 mm, even if L = 10 mm, the imaging wavefront aberration ΔF is as follows. Air: ΔF = 10 mm × | -9 × 10 −7 / ° C. | × 0.01 ° C. = 0.09 nm Water: ΔF = 10 mm × | −8 × 10 −5 / ° C. ×× 0.01 ° C. = 8.0 nm

題を生ずることが分かる。However, in general, it is desirable that the imaging wavefront aberration ΔF is not more than 1/30 of the exposure wavelength λ, that is, it is preferable that ΔF ≦ λ / 30 (2) is satisfied. For example, A having a wavelength of 193 nm
When using an rF excimer laser as exposure light,
ΔF <6.4 nm is desirable. When the medium that satisfies the working distance is water, if the working distance L is L> 10 mm as in the prior art, the amount of imaging wavefront aberration due to the temperature distribution of the medium is too large, which may cause a practical problem.

Therefore, by satisfying the expression (3), the amount of wavefront aberration generated by the temperature distribution in the immersion liquid can be reduced to 1 / of the exposure wavelength under the achievable temperature stability (temperature distribution).
An immersion type exposure apparatus equipped with a projection optical system suppressed to 0 or less can be obtained. As described above, in the present invention, focusing on the fact that the amount of wavefront aberration generated by exposure light passing through a medium having a temperature distribution depends on the product of the amount of temperature distribution and the optical path length in the medium, By providing an upper limit for the optical path length, the requirements for the temperature distribution are eased. Thus, the immersion type exposure apparatus can be put to practical use under the control of the immersion liquid temperature at a achievable level.

ることが可能となる。As shown in FIG. 1, in this embodiment, the tip of the projection lens system PL is immersed in the liquid LQ.
At least the tip is waterproofed so that liquid does not permeate into the lens barrel. Further, the lower surface (the surface facing the wafer W) of the lens element at the tip of the projection lens system PL is processed into a flat surface or a convex surface having an extremely large radius of curvature, whereby the lower surface of the lens element and the surface of the wafer W are exposed during scanning exposure. And the flow of the liquid LQ generated between them can be made smooth. Further, in the present embodiment, as will be described later in detail, the best imaging plane (reticle conjugate plane) of the projection lens system PL in the liquid immersion state is formed at a position of about 2 to 1 mm from the lower surface of the tip lens element. It is designed to be.
Accordingly, the thickness of the liquid layer formed between the lower surface of the front lens element and the surface of the wafer W is also about 2-1 mm,
Thereby, the control accuracy of the temperature adjustment of the liquid LQ is relaxed, and the occurrence of temperature distribution unevenness in the liquid layer can be suppressed.

The image is formed as an image SI. When the relative scanning between the pattern area Pa on the reticle R and the shot area SAa on the wafer W is completed, the wafer W is moved to, for example, the scanning start position for the shot area SAb next to the shot area SAa.

てもよい。In the projection exposure apparatus shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the diagonal length of the circuit pattern area on the reticle R is smaller than the diameter of the circular image field of the projection lens system PL, the reticle blind in the illumination system 10 is used. By changing the shape and size of the opening to match the shape of the illumination area AI with the circuit pattern area, the apparatus shown in FIG. 1 can be used as a step-and-repeat type stepper. In this case, while the shot area on wafer W is being exposed, reticle stage 16 and XY stage 34 are kept relatively stationary. However, when the wafer W slightly moves during the exposure, the fine movement is measured by the laser interferometer system 33, and the reticle R is corrected so that the minute displacement of the wafer W with respect to the projection lens system PL is tracked on the reticle R side. The stage 16 may be finely controlled.
When changing the shape and size of the reticle blind opening, a zoom lens that concentrates the pulsed light from the light source that reaches the reticle blind in a range that matches the adjusted opening according to the change in the opening shape and size A system may be provided.

This will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 shows a partial cross section from the tip of the projection lens system PL to the holder table WH. A positive lens element LE1 having a flat lower surface Pe and a convex upper surface is fixed to the distal end of the projection lens system PL in the lens barrel. The lower surface Pe of the lens element LE1 is processed (flash surface processing) so as to be flush with the end surface of the distal end portion of the lens barrel, thereby suppressing disturbance of the flow of the liquid LQ. Further, the liquid L at the tip of the lens barrel of the projection lens system PL
The outer peripheral corner 114 immersed in the Q is chamfered with a large curvature as shown in FIG. 3, for example, to reduce the resistance to the flow of the liquid LQ and suppress the generation of unnecessary vortices and turbulence.
At the center of the inner bottom of the holder table WH, a plurality of protruding suction surfaces 113 for vacuum suction of the back surface of the wafer W are formed. The suction surface 113 is specifically 1 mm
It is formed as a plurality of orbicular land portions formed concentrically at a predetermined pitch in the radial direction of the wafer W at approximately the same height.
Each of the grooves engraved at the center of each orbicular land portion is connected to a pipe 112 connected to a vacuum source for vacuum suction inside the table WH.

Lower surface Pe of lens element LE1 at the tip of projection lens system PL
The distance L between the wafer and the surface of the wafer W (or the auxiliary plate portion HRS) in the best focus state is set to about 2-1 mm. Therefore, the depth Hq of the liquid LQ filled in the holder table WH may be about 2 to 3 times or more the distance L, and therefore, the height of the wall portion LB erected around the holder table WH. May be about several mm to 10 mm. As described above, in the present embodiment, since the interval L as the working distance of the projection lens system PL is extremely small, the total amount of the liquid LQ filled in the holder table WH can be small, and the temperature control can be easily performed.

られる。Here, as the liquid LQ used in this embodiment, pure water that is easily available and easy to handle is used. However, in this embodiment, in order to reduce the surface tension of the liquid LQ and increase the surface active force, the fat which does not dissolve the resist layer of the wafer W and has negligible effect on the optical coat of the lower surface Pe of the lens element is used. Add a group-based additive (liquid) in a small proportion. As the additive, methyl alcohol having a refractive index substantially equal to that of pure water is preferable. In this way, even if the methyl alcohol component in pure water evaporates and its content changes, an advantage is obtained that the change in the refractive index of the liquid LQ as a whole can be extremely small.

Therefore, let us consider a realistic immersion projection method under such temperature control accuracy. Temperature coefficient of the refractive index of the general air N a is about -9 × 1

It is configured not to be immersed in Q. In this embodiment, the distance between the lower surface of the parallel flat plate CG and the surface of the wafer W is an apparent working distance, and is set to 2 mm or less as in the previous embodiment.

子であることに変わりはない。When the parallel flat plate CG is provided at the tip of the projection lens system PL, the substantial back focus distance (the distance from the tip optical element having refractive power to the image plane) of the projection lens system PL is reduced. Even when the distance is about 10 to 15 mm, it is possible to easily realize the immersion projection method in which the working distance L is set to about 1 to 2 mm to reduce the influence of the temperature change of the liquid. In addition, since the parallel plate CG can be provided later, a part of the surface of the parallel plate CG is polished to the order of a fraction of the wavelength, so that a local micro-distortion generated in the projected image is obtained. (Or random distortion) can be easily corrected. That is, the parallel flat plate CG has both a function as a window for protecting the most advanced lens element of the projection lens system PL from liquid and a function as a distortion correction plate. From another point of view, since the imaging performance of the projection lens system PL including the parallel plate CG is guaranteed, the parallel plate CG is still the most advanced optical element of the projection lens system PL. .

And the beam B for length measurement from the laser interferometer 33
The Sm is projected onto a movable mirror MRw fixed to the end of the ZL stage 82 as shown in FIG. 5, and the reflected beam returns to the laser interferometer 33 and interferes with the reflected beam of the reference beam BSr. The coordinate position of the reflecting surface of the moving mirror MRw,
That is, the coordinate position of the wafer W in the X and Y directions is measured with reference to the reference mirror ML. Now, also in this embodiment, the ZL stage 82 has three Z actuators 32.
XY stage 34 via A and 32B (32C is omitted)
It is mounted on the top and is movable in the Z direction and the tilt direction. However, the ZL stage 82 is coupled to the XY stage 34 via leaf springs 84A and 84B (84C is omitted) at three places around the ZL stage 82, and the rigidity in the horizontal direction (within the XY plane) of the XY stage 34 becomes extremely large.

ZL stage 82 with a relatively large stroke (approximately 10 to 15 mm) by driving mechanisms 88A and 88B in the directions.
In the Z direction. Unlike the Z actuators 32A, 32B, and 32C for focus and leveling, the drive mechanisms 88A and 88B need only move the wafer chuck 90 between both ends of the stroke, and use an air cylinder, a link mechanism, or the like. A simple elevation function is sufficient. Further, in the embodiment of FIG. 6, the center up pin 83 shown in FIG. 5 is fixed on the XY stage 34 without moving up and down. When the wafer chuck 90 is at the highest position as shown in FIG. 6, the surface of the wafer W is set to be about 1 to 2 mm from the surface of the optical element at the tip of the projection lens system PL, and the tip of the center-up pin 83 is It is slightly lower (about 2 to 3 mm) than the wafer mounting surface of the chuck 90.

搬入は、以上のシーケンスとは全く逆に行われる。FIG. 6 shows the state of the exposure operation on the wafer W with the above-described configuration. When the exposure operation is completed, the liquid LQ on the wafer chuck 90 is discharged by the operation of discharging the liquid LQ shown in FIG. Is temporarily discharged. Thereafter, when the vacuum chuck of the wafer chuck 90 is released, the drive mechanisms 88A and 88B are operated to operate the wafer chuck 90.
From the position in FIG. As a result, the wafer W is replaced on the front end surfaces of the three center up pins 83, and the upper end surface of the wall portion LB around the wafer chuck 90 is moved to the front end surface of the projection lens system PL (the lower surface of the lens element LE1 in FIG. 3). Pe, parallel plate C in FIG.
(Lower surface of G). When the XY stage 34 is moved to the wafer exchange position in this state, the wafer W is pulled out from just below the projection lens system PL, and moves to the transfer arm 95. At this time, the arm 95 is set at a height that is higher than the upper end surface of the wall portion LB of the wafer chuck 90 and lower than the wafer W on the center-up pin 83.
Go underneath. Then, the arm 90 performs vacuum suction while slightly lifting the wafer W upward, and transports the wafer W to a predetermined unload position. The loading of the wafer W is performed in exactly the reverse of the above sequence.

Since the pool of the liquid LQ spreads directly below the optical path of r, it is conceivable that the rise of the saturated vapor of the liquid LQ will cause fluctuations in the optical path of the reference beam BSr. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the cover plate 87 is disposed between the optical path of the reference beam BSr and the liquid LQ, and the vapor flow rising from the liquid LQ is blocked to prevent fluctuation occurring in the optical path of the reference beam BSr.

In this case, the cover plate 87 also has a function of preventing air for air-conditioning air from being directly blown onto the liquid LQ, so that unnecessary evaporation of the liquid LQ can be reduced. Further, in place of the simple cover plate 87, a configuration may be adopted in which the entire optical path of the reference beam BSr is covered with a windshield cylinder.
