Description

Technical Field [0001] The present invention relates to a pellicle inspection apparatus,

The present invention relates to a pellicle inspection apparatus and a method of inspecting the pellicle, and more particularly, to a pellicle inspection apparatus and a method of inspecting the pellicle, comprising a light source unit for irradiating the pellicle with EUV light, a reflection system for retransmitting the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle, And a detector for collecting and measuring the EUV light re-transmitted through the pellicle, and a method of inspecting the pellicle.

As the circuit line width of a semiconductor device is rapidly miniaturized, there is a limitation in forming a fine pattern with a liquid immersion ArF exposure apparatus using a light source of a 193 nm wavelength band currently used. In order to form a fine pattern without improving the light source and the exposure equipment, techniques such as double exposure or quadruple exposure have been applied. However, in the production of semiconductor devices where mass production is important, an increase in the number of processes, an increase in the process price, And a decrease in the number of sheets.

To solve these problems, a next-generation exposure apparatus using extreme ultraviolet lithography using an extreme ultraviolet ray having a wavelength of 13.5 nm is being developed. Reflective reticles, such as mirrors, are used instead of conventional transmissive reticles because light from a 13.5 nm wavelength used in extreme ultraviolet lithography techniques is absorbed by almost all materials. If impurities such as dust or foreign matter are adhered to the reticle, light is absorbed or reflected by the impurities, so that the transferred pattern is damaged, resulting in a problem that the performance and the yield of the semiconductor device or the liquid crystal display plate are lowered. Therefore, a method using a pellicle has been carried out in order to prevent impurities from adhering to the surface of the reticle. For this reason, researches on the development of pellicles having high transmittance and thin thickness characteristics against extreme ultraviolet rays are actively conducted.

However, since the pellicle for the extreme ultraviolet exposure process is an initial stage of research, it is necessary to provide a device for inspecting the basic characteristics of the pellicle and a method for detecting the defects of the pellicle. Inspection technology has not yet been established.

For example, in Korean Patent Registration No. KR1336946B1 (Application No. KR20120135492A, Applicant: Korean Basic Science Institute), local heat generated by a defect in a semiconductor element such as a substrate and a thin film is referred to as a sub-micron space A method of manufacturing a defect analysis apparatus for tracking and analyzing a defect position with high precision by superimposing the semiconductor fine pattern image on the semiconductor wafer by measuring the defect with a resolution and a non-contact method.

In order to improve the process efficiency of the semiconductor manufacturing process, there is a continuing research to apply a high-power light source to extreme ultraviolet lithography exposure equipment. For this reason, there is a growing demand for high performance extreme ultraviolet exposure process pellicles with high transmittance to improve the productivity of the exposure process. Therefore, it is necessary to study the pellicle inspecting apparatus and inspection method for measuring the permeability of the pellicle at a low cost by using the simplified apparatus and the easy operation method, and for evaluating the defectiveness of the pellicle.

Since the path of the light is adjusted through the optical lens included in the light source unit 10 as described above, the incident angle of the EUV light irradiated on the pellicle 100 is measured by a conventional pellicle permeability measuring apparatus for EUV exposure process May be the same as the incident angle of the light source irradiated to the pellicle by the exposure device used in the exposure apparatus. According to one embodiment, the incident angle of the EUV light to the pellicle 100 may be about 6 degrees.

The step of retransmitting the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle 100 to the pellicle 100 by the multilayer thin-film mirror 20 includes the step of allowing at least a part of the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle 100 to pass through the multi- Reflected by the pellicle 20 and retransmitting the pellicle 100.

The detecting and collecting of the second EUV light by the detector 40 may be performed by the detecting unit 40 such that the second EUV light is reflected from the multilayer thin film mirror 20 and reflected by the second EUV And measuring the light emission intensity of the light. The light emission intensity value of the second EUV light measured by the detector 40 is a value of the light emission intensity value of the first EUV light measured with respect to the multilayer thin film mirror 20 before the pellicle 100 is disposed And can be used for calculating the transmittance of the pellicle 100 of the pellicle inspection apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention.

According to one embodiment of the present invention there is provided a reflective type structure in which the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle 100 is retransmitted to the pellicle 100 using the multilayer thin film mirror 20 The pellicle inspecting apparatus can easily evaluate image transfer characteristics of the mask when the mask is attached to the pellicle 100. 6, since the EUV light is transmitted only once to the pellicle 100, the mask is attached to the pellicle 100. As a result, , It may be impossible to evaluate the image transfer characteristics of the mask.

In step S400, whether or not the pellicle 100 is defective can be evaluated by calculating the transmittance of the pellicle 100 through the first and second EUV light. The light emission intensity value of the first EUV light measured by the detection unit 40 and the pellicle 100 in step S300 are arranged before the pellicle 100 is disposed in step S100, The transmittance of the pellicle 100 can be calculated through a ratio of the light emission intensity value of the second EUV light measured by the first EUV light. The formula for calculating the permeability of the pellicle 100 is shown in Equation 1 below.

Hereinafter, a pellicle inspection apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

1 to 5, a pellicle inspecting apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5, .

1 to 5, a pellicle inspection apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the light source unit 10, the multilayer thin film mirror 20, the pellicle stage 30, and the detection unit 40 can do.

The light source unit 10 can irradiate the pellicle 100 with the EUV light. As described above, the wavelength of the EUV light irradiating the pellicle 20 in the light source unit 10 may be the same as the wavelength of the light source generated in the exposure apparatus used in the conventional apparatus for measuring pellicle permeability for EUV exposure . According to one embodiment, the wavelength of the EUV light generated in the light source unit 10 may be about 13.5 nm.

The light source unit 10 may further include an optical lens for adjusting the path of the EUV light in the path of the EUV light emitted from the light source unit 10 to the pellicle 100. According to one embodiment, the optical lens may be a spherical mirror, a planar mirror, a concave lens, and / or a convex lens. The path of the light is controlled through the optical lens so that the incident angle of the EUV light irradiated to the pellicle 100 is the same as the incident angle of the light source irradiated to the pellicle by the exposure device used in the conventional EUV exposure process pellicle transmittance measurement apparatus can do. According to one embodiment, the incident angle of the EUV light to the pellicle 100 may be about 6 degrees.

According to one embodiment, when the incident angle of the EUV light is about 6 degrees, when the mask is attached to the pellicle inspection apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, the image electron characteristics of the mask can be evaluated.

The multilayer thin film mirror 20 may retransmit at least a part of the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle 100 to the pellicle 100. The multilayer thin film mirror 20 may have the reflective structure. Accordingly, when the mask is attached to the pellicle inspecting apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, the image transfer characteristic of the mask can be evaluated. According to one embodiment, the multilayer thin film mirror 20 may be a structure in which a molybdenum (Mo) layer and a silicon (Si) layer are alternately laminated.

The pellicle stage (30) can separate the pellicle (100) from the multilayer thin film mirror (20). Accordingly, the contamination and / or damage of the multilayer thin-film mirror 20 due to the direct contact between the pellicle 100 and the multilayer thin-film mirror 20 can be minimized. In addition, the pellicle stage 30 can physically support the pellicle 100.

As described above, the pellicle stage 30 includes the first and second stages 31 and 32, the first and second support portions 33 and the third and fourth support portions 34, . ≪ / RTI >

As described with reference to Figs. 1-5, the first and second stages 31 and 32 are arranged on the first and second sides of the multilayer thin-film mirror 20, , And may extend in the first direction (x direction). According to one embodiment, the first and second stages 31 and 32 can move in the third direction (z direction) perpendicular to the first and second directions (x direction, y direction). As the first and second stages 31 and 32 are moved in the third direction (z direction), the distance between the multilayer thin film mirror 20 and the pellicle 100 can be easily adjusted. According to one embodiment, the distance between the multilayer thin film mirror 20 and the pellicle 100 may be 0.5 to 5 mm.

Further, as described above, the pellicle 100 can be placed in direct contact with the upper surface of the first to fourth supporting portions 33, 34 of the pellicle stage 30. [ 4 and 5, depending on the size of the pellicle 100 to be measured, the first to fourth supporting portions 33 and 34 are formed on the first and second stages 31 and 32 The spacing between the first and second support portions 33 and the spacing between the third and fourth support portions 34 can be easily adjusted in the first direction (x direction). According to an embodiment, the gap between the first and second support portions 33 and the gap between the third and fourth support portions 34 may be 0 to 100 mm.

The first to fourth supporting portions 33 and 34 are moved in the second direction (y direction) on the first and second stages 31 and 32 according to the size of the pellicle 100 The gap between the first and third support portions 33 and 34 and the gap between the second and fourth support portions 33 and 34 can be easily adjusted. According to an embodiment, the distance between the first and third support portions 33 and 34 and the distance between the second and fourth support portions 33 and 34 may be 0 to 100 mm.

The spacing between the first to fourth support portions 33 and 34 is easily adjusted according to the size of the pellicle 100 to be measured so that the first to fourth support portions 33 and 34 Can be determined.

The detection unit 40 may collect and measure the second EUV light that has been reflected from the multilayer thin film mirror 20 and then retransmitted through the pellicle 100. The light emission intensity value of the second EUV light measured by the detection unit 40 may be the sum of the light emission intensity value of the first EUV light measured by the detection unit 40 before the pellicle 100 is disposed, Can be used for calculating the transmittance for the light emitting device 100.

According to one embodiment, the detection unit 40 may include the reflectivity meter for collecting the first EUV light reflected from the multilayer thin film mirror 20 and then converting the first EUV light into an electric signal and outputting the electric signal information, And the detector for detecting a defective area. For example, the reflectivity meter may be the photodiode.

According to an embodiment, the detecting unit 40 may detect the direction of the first EUV light reflected by the multilayer thin-film mirror 20 and the path of the second EUV light re-transmitted to the pellicle 100, And the optical lens for adjusting the paths of the first and second EUV lights. By the optical lens, the first and second EUV light can reach the detection unit 40 efficiently. According to one embodiment, the optical lens may be a spherical mirror, a planar mirror, a concave lens, and / or a convex lens, as described above.

Unlike the embodiment of the present invention described above, conventionally, the transmittance of a pellicle for an extreme ultraviolet exposure process is measured using an exposure machine. In the case of using the exposure machine, serious damage is caused to the exposer, which is expensive equipment, due to contaminants on the surface of the pellicle and / or destruction of the pellicle.

In addition, since the EUV mask is of the reflection type, the apparatus for measuring the pellicle transmittance for the EUV exposure process of the transmission type structure can not confirm the image transfer characteristics of the mask in the conventional pellicle permeability measurement apparatus for EUV exposure process. Accordingly, the pellicle penetration apparatus for the EUV exposure process of the transmission type structure can be used only for the measurement of the transparency of the pellicle. Therefore, the use of the pellicle penetration apparatus in the extreme ultraviolet exposure process is limited.

 However, as described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the light source portion 10 for irradiating the pellicle 100 with EUV light, the multilayer thin film mirror 20 for reflecting the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle 100, A pellicle stage 30 for separating the pellicle from the multilayer thin film mirror, and a detector for collecting and measuring the EUV light, which is reflected from the multilayer thin film mirror 20 and retransmitted to the pellicle 100 A pellicle inspecting apparatus, and a method of manufacturing the same, can be provided.

First, the pellicle 100 is spaced apart from the pellicle stage 30 located on the multilayer thin film mirror 20 so that the pellicle 100 is in direct contact with the multilayer thin film mirror 20, It is possible to prevent the mirror 20 from being contaminated and / or damaged.

By moving the first and second stages 31 and 32 and the first to fourth supporting portions 33 and 34 of the pellicle stage 30 by a simple operation, the pellicle 100 and the multi- The distance between the mirrors 20 can be easily controlled and the permeability of the pellicle 100 can be easily measured regardless of the size of the pellicle 100 to be measured.

In addition, since the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle 100 is re-transmitted to the pellicle 100 by using the multilayer thin-film mirror 20 having a reflective structure, the mask is mounted on the pellicle 100 , The image transfer characteristic of the mask can be evaluated. Therefore, there is a high advantage in utilization of the pellicle for the extreme ultraviolet exposure process.

The wavelength of the EUV light generated in the light source unit 10 and the incident angle of the EUV light irradiated to the pellicle 100 are determined by the wavelength of the light source generated in the exposure apparatus used in the conventional EUV exposure process measuring device for pellicle penetration, And may be the same as the incident angle of the light source irradiated on the pellicle. In other words, the exposure conditions of the pellicle inspection apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention may be the same as the exposure conditions of the conventional apparatus for measuring pellicle penetration for the EUV exposure process. Accordingly, the permeability of the pellicle 100 can be measured efficiently in a simplified process and at a reduced cost in the same permeability measurement environment as in the case of using an exposing machine which is expensive equipment.

Hereinafter, a characteristic evaluation of the pellicle inspection apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described.

FIG. 7 is an image showing a measuring point of permeability of a pellicle in an experiment of measuring the permeability of the pellicle inspecting apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention.

7, pellicles having different thicknesses (43 nm, 93 nm and 175 nm) are applied to a pellicle inspection apparatus including a light source section, a multilayer thin film mirror, a pellicle stage, and a detection section, The permeability of the pellicle was evaluated with respect to the measurement point of 5.

8 is a graph showing measured values of permeability of pellicles having different thicknesses of the pellicle inspecting apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention.

7, the light intensity of the first EUV light reaching the detection section before the pellicle is applied to the pellicle inspection apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, And the emission intensity of the second EUV light reaching the detection unit after the pellicle was applied to the inspection apparatus was measured. The transmittance of the pellicle having different thicknesses was calculated through the ratio of the emission intensities of the first and second EUV light.

In addition, the permeability values of the pellicles having different thicknesses measured through the above-described experiments were compared with those of the pellicles having different thicknesses derived through simulation. The transmittance values measured through the above-described experiments and the transmittance values derived through simulation are shown in Table 1 below.

T% (measurement)
(CSM) T% (simulation)
(EM-Stack) Pellicle A (43 nm) 78.1% 78.5% Pellicle B (93 nm) 59.8% 59.8% Pellicle C (175 nm) 30.3% 30.3%

8, when the thickness of the pellicle is 43 nm, the permeability of the pellicle is 78.1%, and the thickness of the pellicle is 93 nm, with respect to the measurement points 1 to 5 of the pellicle, Was 59.8%, and when the thickness of the pellicle was 175 nm, it was confirmed that the permeability of the pellicle was 30.3%. As a result, it was found that the permeability of the pellicle increases as the thickness of the pellicle becomes thinner.

Also, as shown in Table 1, when the permeability of the pellicle having a different thickness is derived through the simulation, when the thickness of the pellicle is 43 nm with respect to the measurement points 1 to 5 of the pellicle, The permeability of the pellicle was 78.5%. When the thickness of the pellicle was 93 nm, the permeability of the pellicle was 59.8%. When the thickness of the pellicle was 175 nm, the permeability of the pellicle was found to be 30.3%. Accordingly, it was found that the transmittance value of the pellicle measured through the above-described experiment was similar to the transmittance value of the pellicle obtained through the simulation.

9 is an image showing an image transfer characteristic of an EUV mask for a pellicle inspection apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

After applying the EUV mask with the pellicle to the pellicle inspection apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, the image transfer characteristics of the EUV mask were evaluated using the HIO algorithm.

9, when an EUV mask having a pellicle attached thereto is applied to the pellicle inspection apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, the influence of the pellicle on image transfer characteristics of the mask can be improved by software for restoring an image from the diffraction pattern. We can see that the analysis is possible. This is because the incident angle of the EUV light to the pellicle generated in the light source unit used in the pellicle inspecting apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention is different from the incident angle of the light source generated in the exposure apparatus used in the conventional pellicle penetration testing apparatus for ultra- The pellicle inspection apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention uses the multilayer thin film mirror of the reflection type structure to judge whether or not the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle is retransmitted to the pellicle do.

As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the pellicle is provided with the light source portion for irradiating the pellicle with EUV light, the multilayer thin film mirror for reflecting the EUV light transmitted through the pellicle, When the pellicle inspection device including the pellicle stage for collecting and measuring the EUV light re-transmitted through the pellicle after being reflected from the multilayer thin-film mirror is used, the pellicle is simulated with respect to the pellicle It is possible to obtain a permeability value similar to the derived permeability value, that is, a highly reliable permeability value. In addition, when the mask having the pellicle is applied to the pellicle inspecting apparatus, the image transfer characteristic to the mask can be evaluated as well as the permeability to the pellicle.
