収差を大幅に減少する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] The cross-sectional shape of the electrodes of the sub-deflector is formed into a triangular shape, a rice ball shape, etc. so that the interval between each electrode becomes wider from the outside of the circumference toward the inside, and the vacuum The influence of the ground potential from the container wall is reduced, and a uniform electric field area within the sub-deflector can be widened, thereby significantly reducing astigmatism caused by the sub-deflector.
本発明は電子ビーム露光装置の非点収差を改善したサブ
デフレクタの構造に関する。The present invention relates to a structure of a sub-deflector that improves astigmatism in an electron beam exposure apparatus.
現在、電子ビーム露光装置は集積回路等のサブミクロン
程度の線幅を持つ微細パターンの形成に多用されるよう
になった。Currently, electron beam exposure apparatuses are frequently used to form fine patterns having submicron line widths for integrated circuits and the like.
電子ビーム露光装置においては、メインデフレクタで電
磁的に大きく偏向してカバーできる領域をメインフィー
ルドと呼び、メインデフレクタにより軌道を曲げられた
電子ビームの小偏向を行うサブデフレクタは高速な静電
偏向が用いられ、これがカバーできる領域はサブフィー
ルドと呼ばれる。In an electron beam exposure system, the area that can be covered by a large electromagnetic deflection by the main deflector is called the main field, and the sub-deflector, which deflects the electron beam by a small amount after its trajectory is bent by the main deflector, is a high-speed electrostatic deflector. The area that is used and that it can cover is called a subfield.
メインフィールドの大きざは半導体チ・ンプの大きざ、
例えば10IIII11角程度で、サブフィールドの大
きさは0.11角程度である。The size of the main field is the size of the semiconductor chip,
For example, the size of the subfield is about 10III11 squares, and the size of the subfield is about 0.11 squares.
メインフィールド内で1チツプの露光が終わると、多数
のチップをその中に形成しようとするウェハを載せたス
テージを1ステツプずつ送ってつぎつぎとチップを露光
してゆく。When the exposure of one chip in the main field is completed, the stage carrying the wafer on which many chips are to be formed is moved step by step to expose the chips one after another.
この場合、メインデフレクタで偏向された電子ビームの
軌道がサブデフレクタの中心から外れたところを通ると
きは非点収差が大きくなり、そのため、サブデフレクタ
内の均一電界領域は大きいことが望まれる。In this case, when the trajectory of the electron beam deflected by the main deflector passes through a location away from the center of the sub-deflector, astigmatism becomes large, so it is desirable that the uniform electric field area within the sub-deflector be large.
第2図(1)〜(4)は従来例によるサブデフレクタの
電極構造を説明する斜視図と断面図である。FIGS. 2(1) to 2(4) are a perspective view and a sectional view illustrating the electrode structure of a conventional sub-deflector.
第2図(1)は静電偏向の原理的な構造を示す斜視図で
、X方向、およびY方向それぞれに1組の電極11.1
2、および13.14を配列する。FIG. 2 (1) is a perspective view showing the basic structure of electrostatic deflection, with one set of electrodes 11.1 in each of the X and Y directions.
2, and 13.14.
これらの電極対は2方向にずらせて配置することにより
X方向、およびY方向お互いの電界の干渉を低減してい
る。By arranging these electrode pairs so as to be shifted in two directions, interference between electric fields in the X direction and the Y direction is reduced.
電子ビームは電極対11.12、および13.14間を
通り、それぞれの電極対に加えられた電位によりX方向
、およびY方向に偏向される。The electron beam passes between electrode pairs 11.12 and 13.14, and is deflected in the X and Y directions by the potentials applied to the respective electrode pairs.
この場合は、X方向の電極対11.12とY方向の電極
対13.14のZ方向の位置が異なるため、これらをを
対等に取り扱うことはできないという欠点がある。In this case, since the positions of the electrode pair 11.12 in the X direction and the electrode pair 13.14 in the Y direction are different in the Z direction, there is a drawback that they cannot be treated equally.
そのため、これらの4極を同一高ざに配列すると、電極
対どうし互いに干渉しあって、うまく偏向することがで
きない。Therefore, if these four poles are arranged at the same height, the electrode pairs will interfere with each other, making it impossible to deflect the light properly.
そこで、通常8極を同一高さに配列してつぎのように電
位を加えて均一電界を得るようにしている。Therefore, eight poles are usually arranged at the same height and a potential is applied as follows to obtain a uniform electric field.
第2図(2)は8極の円柱電極を同一高ざに配列したサ
ブデフレクタの平面図である。FIG. 2(2) is a plan view of a sub-deflector in which eight cylindrical electrodes are arranged at the same height.

By providing Y)/2"", a uniform electric field can be obtained in a desired deflection direction on the XY coordinates.
ところが、これらの電極は接地された真空容器の内壁に
近接して配列されるため、接地電位の影響を受はサブデ
フレクタ内の均一電界領域を狭くする。However, since these electrodes are arranged close to the grounded inner wall of the vacuum vessel, they are affected by the ground potential and narrow the uniform electric field area within the sub-deflector.
接地電位の影響を少なくするために、つぎのように電極
間隔を狭くする構造がとられている。In order to reduce the influence of the ground potential, the following structure is adopted in which the electrode spacing is narrowed.
第2図(3)は接地電位の影響を少な(するように、8

FIG. 3 is a plan view of a sub-deflector in which thick cylindrical electrodes are arranged at the same height.
図において、太い円柱電極を用いることにより、電極間
隔は狭くなるが、均一電界領域も同時に狭められるとい
う欠点をもつ。In the figure, by using thick cylindrical electrodes, the electrode spacing becomes narrower, but this has the disadvantage that the uniform electric field region is also narrowed at the same time.
以降の図において、9はX=±XXY=Oの場合の等電
位線を模式的に示す。In the subsequent figures, 9 schematically shows equipotential lines in the case of X=±XXY=O.

クタの平面図である。FIG. 2(4) is a plan view of a sub-deflector formed by dividing a cylinder into eight parts by thin cuts so as to reduce the influence of the ground potential.
この場合は、接地電位の影響を少なくできるが、サブデ
フレクタ内に均一電界の形成が非常に難しくなる。In this case, the influence of the ground potential can be reduced, but it becomes very difficult to form a uniform electric field within the subdeflector.
従来のサブデフレクタは、真空容器壁の近接による接地
電位の影響を少なくして、かつ均一電界領域を広くとる
ことば困難であった。With conventional sub-deflectors, it has been difficult to reduce the influence of ground potential due to the proximity of the vacuum vessel wall and to provide a wide uniform electric field area.
上記問題点の解決は、メインデフレクタで軌道を曲げら
れた電子ビームの小偏向を行うサブデフレクタを有し、
該サブデフレクタを構成する複数の電極が円周上に配列
され、各電極間の間隔が該円周の外側より内側に向かっ

って達成される。The solution to the above problem is to have a sub-deflector that performs a small deflection of the electron beam whose trajectory has been bent by the main deflector.
This is achieved by the electron beam exposure apparatus according to the present invention, in which a plurality of electrodes constituting the sub-deflector are arranged on a circumference, and the interval between each electrode becomes wider toward the inside of the circumference from the outside.
例えば、前記電極の各が略三角形の断面を有する柱状を
なしている場合は、各電極間の間隔が該円周の外側より
内側に向かって広く形成することができる。For example, when each of the electrodes has a columnar shape with a substantially triangular cross section, the interval between the electrodes can be made wider toward the inner side of the circumference than the outer side.
本発明は円周上に配列された電極の外側の間隔を小ざく
して接地電位の影響を除去し、内側の間隔を広くして等
電位面の配列を調整して略電極の内接円一杯に均一電界
領域を形成できるようにしたものである。The present invention reduces the outer spacing of the electrodes arranged on the circumference to eliminate the influence of the ground potential, and widens the inner spacing to adjust the arrangement of equipotential surfaces to approximate the inscribed circle of the electrodes. This allows a completely uniform electric field region to be formed.

域を形成することができる。In such a structure, the outer spacing between each electrode is narrow, so the influence of the ground potential is reduced (and
Since the electrode spacing becomes wider toward the inside, it is possible to adjust the arrangement of the equipotential surfaces 9 to form a uniform electric field region that covers approximately the entire inscribed circle of the electrodes.

台形であったが、これらの代わりにおむすび型、T型等
であってもよい。In the embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the electrode was approximately triangular or trapezoidal close to a triangle, but the cross-sectional shape may be a ball shape, a T shape, or the like instead.
