This trend, driven by the rapid development of semiconductor process technology, has enabled microwave components to quickly reach mass production and low-cost commercialization needs. However, as microwave components are increasingly moving to higher frequency bands, the cost of product integration and product equipment has made the microwave components work in the lithography process of the manufacturing process. One of the most difficult problems to overcome is some of the diffraction effects that occur during the exposure process.

Therefore, when the micrograph is exposed to the η system, the photoresist on the wafer will be incompletely exposed, and at the same time, due to the diffusion of the light source energy, the photoreceptor is not required to be exposed. The photoresist layer also produces chemical changes, which result in 'easy to produce organic residues (orgaruc residue) or unable to form a complete overhanging overhang shape after the development process is completed. Or the T-shaped top (T~T〇p), thus affecting the subsequent evaporation of the metal film (the process, causing the metal film layer to fall due to organic residues: focus on the metal Film peeling or peeling is incomplete and the metal film remains. These phenomena can cause short-circuit or poor contact of the components, resulting in defective products. The most simple surface acoustic wave component in a process (Surf The ace Acoustic Wave Device; SAW) is an example. The surface acoustic wave element (SAW) is an elastic wave propagating along a solid surface, which is composed of longitudinal waves and longitudinal waves. The shear wave is combined to form an expanded circular trajectory whose amplitude is the largest on the solid surface and decays exponent ia 1 , so that 90% of the mechanical energy transmitted is concentrated at about one wavelength.

電壓效應,將輸入的電訊號轉換成聲訊號,此聲訊號沿著 壓電基板(piezoelectricity substrate)表面傳遞,最 後再由輸出指狀電極(IDT)經由正壓電效應,將此聲波 訊5虎轉換成電訊號輸出,因此表面聲波元件(SAW)為在 壓電基板上,利用聲電能量轉換原理的特性作訊號之處 理。 表面聲波元件(SAW)的特性響應,基本上是與指狀 電極(IDT)的幾何圖形相對應,其中心頻率(center frequency)取決於週期性指狀電極(IDT)間距的寬度,而 其相位(phase)則對應於指狀電極(ΐ])τ)的位置,至於振 幅(amρ 1 i t u d e)則對應於指狀電極(IJ)τ )中指狀重疊的長 度。 接著將焦點放在相鄰指狀電極(丨DT)間距的討論上。 由上所述’表面聲波元件(SAW)的中心頻率(center frequency)取決於指狀電極(IDT)的間距,一般來說,可 由以下的式子來決定The voltage effect converts the input electrical signal into an acoustic signal. The acoustic signal is transmitted along the surface of the piezoelectric substrate. Finally, the output finger electrode (IDT) passes the positive piezoelectric effect, and the sound wave is 5 Converted into an electrical signal output, the surface acoustic wave element (SAW) is processed on the piezoelectric substrate using the characteristics of the acoustic-electric energy conversion principle. The characteristic response of the surface acoustic wave element (SAW) basically corresponds to the geometry of the finger electrode (IDT), and its center frequency depends on the width of the periodic finger electrode (IDT) pitch, and its phase (phase) corresponds to the position of the finger electrode (ΐ)) τ), and the amplitude (am ρ itude) corresponds to the length of the finger-shaped overlap in the finger electrode (IJ) τ ). The focus is then placed on the discussion of the spacing of adjacent finger electrodes (丨 DT). The center frequency of the surface acoustic wave element (SAW) described above depends on the pitch of the finger electrodes (IDT), and can generally be determined by the following equation

Description of the invention (4) λ is the wavelength of the surface acoustic wave. ^ When a surface acoustic wave device is used as the filter, if the center frequency is sag 2. 5 GHz, and if the piezoelectric substrate of the surface acoustic wave filter is Lithium Tantalate, the wave velocity is about 40 0 0 m / s (m / s), so according to the above formula, the wavelength (λ) of the surface acoustic wave filter can be found to be 1.6 μm (um); and the adjacent finger electrode U on the surface acoustic wave filter The distance (d) between DT) is generally designed to be a quarter wavelength (λ / 4 ), so that the spacing between adjacent finger electrodes can be further determined to be 〇·4 μm.

若欲再設計更高的中心頻率時,例如中心頻率為5GHz時, 則在上述條件不變的前提下,則表面聲波濾波器的相鄰指 狀電極間的間距會縮小為〇 · 2微米(u m)。 在實際製程中,若使用I L i ne曝光機進行曝光時,因 I - Line曝光機在曝光線寬解析度典型的最佳值為〇4至〇.7 微米(u m) ’因此若使用I - L i n e曝光機去製造一中心頻率為 2· 5GHz的表面聲波濾波器時,會在曝光時產生繞射效應, 使得產品的良率(y i e 1 d)降低。 為了解決此一實際問題,在美國專利【US 5, 9 7 2, 5 6 8 】中曾揭露一種「表面波元件的製造方法(Method of Making Surface Wave DeVices)」,其主要特徵是將表 面聲波的指狀電極(I D T )分割成兩個部份並且製作在同一 塊光罩(Mask or Reticle)上,而其製造方法則分為三If a higher center frequency is to be designed, for example, when the center frequency is 5 GHz, the spacing between adjacent finger electrodes of the surface acoustic wave filter will be reduced to 〇 2 μm under the condition that the above conditions are unchanged. Um). In the actual process, if the I-Line exposure machine is used for exposure, the I-Line exposure machine typically has an optimum value of 〇4 to 7.7 μm (um) in the exposure line width resolution. Therefore, if I- When the L ine exposure machine is used to fabricate a surface acoustic wave filter with a center frequency of 2.5 GHz, it will produce a diffraction effect during exposure, which reduces the yield of the product (yie 1 d). In order to solve this practical problem, a method of "Method of Making Surface Wave DeVices" has been disclosed in the U.S. Patent No. 5,9,7,5,6,6, which is characterized in that surface acoustic waves are used. The finger electrode (IDT) is divided into two parts and fabricated on the same mask or reticle, and the manufacturing method is divided into three.

五、發明說明(5) 種,請參考第1 a圖至第1 0圖 一般來說’在黃光區(phot obay)之作業方式,係 將一晶片劃分成複數個孔位(shot),而曝光機在執行曝 光時,可沿著X軸或Y軸進行曝光,而且是在每移動一個孔 位(shot)的距離後,以投影方式進行一次曝光。因此在第 la圖的製造方法中,其在進行曝光時,會先遮住光罩上的 第二部份(reticle part 2),然後以光罩上的第一部份V. Inventive Note (5) For the species, please refer to the 1st to the 1st 0th diagram. Generally speaking, in the operation mode of the phot obay, a wafer is divided into a plurality of holes. The exposure machine can perform exposure along the X-axis or the Y-axis while performing exposure, and performs exposure once in projection after each movement of one hole. Therefore, in the manufacturing method of the first drawing, when the exposure is performed, the second portion (reticle part 2) on the mask is first covered, and then the first portion on the mask is used.

之私狀電極圖案一個孔位(sh〇t)接著一個孔位(sh〇t) 地進行曝光。當完成所有孔位(shot)的曝光後,曝光機 會f到起始位置,然後將光罩上的遮蔽物換成第一部份, 接著曝光機以第二部份的指狀電極圖案,同樣地一個孔位 (shoi^接著一個孔位(sh〇t)地進行曝光,最後完成髮 们表面聲波兀件指狀電極的圖案,然後進行後的製程。由 ^ 〇罩上的圖案疋將指狀電極對稱地分成兩個部份,故在 t 第一部份及第二部份上的指狀電極圖案間的距雜 = 0.8微米(um)。由於圖案間的的距離加大,因此可The private electrode pattern is exposed by one hole position (sh〇t) followed by one hole position (sh〇t). After the exposure of all the shots is completed, the exposure opportunity f is to the starting position, and then the mask on the mask is replaced with the first portion, and then the exposure machine is in the second portion of the finger electrode pattern, again One hole position (shoi^ followed by one hole position (sh〇t) is exposed, and finally the pattern of the surface acoustic wave finger electrode is completed, and then the process is performed. The pattern on the cover is indicated by The electrode is symmetrically divided into two parts, so the distance between the finger electrode patterns on the first part and the second part of t is 0.8 μm (um). Since the distance between the patterns is increased,

1290733 五、發明說明(6) 程序(development process),故在晶片上沒有對準記 號(alignment key)可供曝光機作位置對準之校正 (calibration),因此在第la圖的製造過程中,在第一 部份與第二部份的圖案曝光時,其相對之重疊(〇verlay )位置在曝光過程中是完全無法控制的。也許就是這個原 因’該專利中提出另一個可以控制該兩部份圖案相對重疊 對準的製方法,請參考第丨b圖。 第lb圖相較於第ia圖最大的差異是在完成光罩上第一 口P伤的曝光後進行顯影程序(development process )’因此日日片上產生對準記號(aHgnment key), 當曝光機完第一部份圖案的曝光動作並回到起始位置後, 會依此對準記號先進行對準校正,然後再進行第二部份圖 案的曝光。因此第1 b圖相較於第丨&圖,會有較精準的曝光 結果,但是其付出的製程時間卻較第la圖更增加了 一次顯 影及一次進/出曝光機的實際時間,也等於增加了 一個製 程項目。 另外’在5玄專利中還提出 法,請參考第1 c圖。第1 c圖相 在其完成第一部份圖案的曝光 成金屬薄膜的蒸鍍後,再將曰 1 ^ 曰曰 圖案的曝光。由於在第一部份 顯影的程序,因此會在晶片上 另一種可以選擇的製造方 較於第1 a圖及第1 b圖之差異 後,繼續執行後續製程至完 片送回曝光機進行第二部份 圖案曝光的製程中,已經過 留下對準記號(al ignment1290733 V. Description of the invention (6) The development process, so there is no alignment key on the wafer for the alignment of the exposure machine, so in the manufacturing process of the first figure, When the patterns of the first part and the second part are exposed, the relative overlap (〇verlay) position is completely uncontrollable during the exposure process. Perhaps this is the reason. The patent proposes another method for controlling the relative overlap of the two portions of the pattern. Please refer to Figure 丨b. The biggest difference between the lb diagram and the ia diagram is that the development process is performed after the exposure of the first P-spray on the reticle is completed. Therefore, an alignment mark (aHgnment key) is generated on the day-to-day film. After the exposure operation of the first part of the pattern is returned to the starting position, the alignment correction is performed according to the alignment mark, and then the exposure of the second partial pattern is performed. Therefore, Figure 1b has a more accurate exposure result than the 丨&, but the process time is more than the first picture, and the actual time of one development and one exposure/exit is also increased. It is equivalent to adding a process item. In addition, the law is also proposed in the 5 Xuan patent, please refer to Figure 1 c. After the exposure of the first partial pattern to the vapor deposition of the metal film, the 曰 1 ^ 图案 pattern is exposed. Due to the process of developing in the first part, the subsequent process can be continued on the wafer after the difference between the first manufacturing method and the first drawing and the first drawing, and the subsequent process is continued until the film is returned to the exposure machine. In the process of exposure of the two-part pattern, the alignment mark has been left (al ignment)

Inventive Note (7) key), so before the wafer re-exposure machine performs the exposure operation of the second partial pattern, the alignment correction is performed first, and then the subsequent process is performed. Although the results of Figure 1c can also result in more accurate alignment and overlap results, they are paid for a mask process, that is, at least eight process items are added. Obviously, in the manufacturing method disclosed in the above patent for reducing the diffraction effect, although the result of reducing the diffraction effect can be achieved, the method of pattern & alignment and the time of the process are greatly improved. space. 5 - 3 OBJECT AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION _ In view of the above-mentioned background of the invention, regarding the shortcomings of the diffraction effect caused by the fine pattern in the exposure process, the present invention proposes a reticle using a single reticle to reduce the diffraction effect in the semiconductor process The main purpose of the layout and its exposure method is to increase the resolution in the exposure process without increasing the number of masks and the processing time, thereby improving the yield of the product. The invention is in the semiconductor manufacturing process, by appropriate design of the reticle layout and appropriate operation arrangement of the exposure apparatus, so that the diffraction effect caused by the fine pattern can be reduced during the exposure process, and the feature is that a mask is The fine pattern on 0 is divided into two patterns by a symmetrical design and the two patterns are respectively located in two sections of the same mask aliquot, and then walked through each exposure by controlling the exposure machine.

INSTRUCTIONS (11) Procedure, and to illustrate the exposure method of the present invention. In general, when manufacturing thin metal film layers, most of them choose to use two-layer photoresist process to achieve the process of lifting (1 i f t 〇 f f). First, the lower photoresist layer 100' is plated on the wafer to achieve the lift-off effect. Most of the lower photoresist 10 is selected from PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) or PMGI (polymethylglutarimide), after soft-baked (pre-bake). A photoresist layer 200 is disposed on the ore, and the photoresist layer is generally positive photoresist. Then, the wafer is placed in the exposure machine and loaded to the exposure position. After determining the layout direction of the photomask, the exposure process is performed. The exposure light method is in each exposure-hole position, and the exposure is performed on the first one. The upper left half of the upper side has also been 3 2 0 steps 'distance, the side is again exposed (sho t) on the second hole program can be moved by the third exposure machine to carry the light when the 2 0 (sho t) light machine The exposure hole position (sh ο ΐ ) is exposed to the exposed surface of the photomask. The exposure machine is shown in the X# b diagram and the fourth diagram. In the platform of the exposed wafer 10 of the present invention (not shown), the displacement distance is set to "two distances per displacement". If the exposure of the finger electrodes is used as an instruction, 'the first step is to perform the 3 1 〇 step, that is, the exposure is performed first, so the first hole position (sh〇t) the pattern of the first block 31 on the cover 30, and the second right The pattern of block 3 2 . Then, 'execution, the direction shifts one-half of the shot of the mask, and the right half of the upper half of the mask has been shot again. This is the first hole position (at this time) The pattern of the right half block 3 1 of sh〇t), so that the first hole is in the complete pattern of the finger electrode (IDT), and the half side is exposed to the second block on the mask 30.

(IDT), and the pattern of the second block 32 on the mask 3 is exposed on the right half of the second hole position (sh〇t). Then, in this manner, a continuous exposure process is performed using the control precision of the displacement of the exposure machine itself. The exposure process of the finger electrode pattern on the entire wafer is completed in a manner similar to stacked exposure. Since the present invention performs the continuous exposure process using the control precision of the displacement of the exposure machine itself, the problem that the first block 图案 pattern overlaps with the pattern of the second block 32 during the exposure process can be completely solved, and at the same time, due to the exposure machine The total displacement distance at which the wafer exposure is completed does not increase, and the inter-force force is also within a controllable range. Therefore, the present invention can effectively reduce the diffraction effect in the case of solving the pattern weight alignment and without requiring a large increase in the processing time. If you look at it from another angle, you can reduce the line width of the process capability by half. This allows some process equipment to be manufactured after the mask layout and exposure = _ operation mode described in the present invention.
