- the device assembly process (S105) usually includes a dicing process, a bonding process, a package process, and the like.
- the present invention has been described with reference to the embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments.
- an exposure apparatus using extreme ultraviolet rays as exposure light has been described.
- the above-described gas supply device 86, mass spectrometer 87, illuminance sensor 88, and the like are incorporated. be able to.
- the control device 90 controls the operations of the gas supply device 86, the mass spectrometer 87, the illuminance sensor 88, etc. by the control device 90, the reflective or transmissive optical elements constituting the exposure apparatus can be oxidized or adhered to carbon. It is possible to effectively prevent deterioration of optical characteristics including a decrease in reflectance and transmittance due to.
- the above-described embodiment it is possible to individually determine the monitoring result of the oxygen-degrading gas, the monitoring result of the film forming gas, and the monitoring result of the illuminance of the exposure light, thereby corresponding deterioration suppression.
- the gas into the vacuum chamber 84 the reducing result is obtained by combining the monitoring result of the acid-deteriorating gas, the monitoring result of the film forming gas, and the monitoring result of the illuminance of the exposure light. It is also possible to determine whether gas or acid gas is introduced into the vacuum vessel 84, and to introduce these gases into the vacuum vessel 84 until the effect appears.
- the optical elements 54, 55, 61, 62, 63, 64, 71, 72, 73, 74 and the mask MA have many Instead of the layer film, a reflective film such as a single layer metal film can be formed.
- the exposure apparatus that uses extreme ultraviolet light as exposure light has been described.
- a projection exposure apparatus that uses ultraviolet light other than extreme ultraviolet light as exposure light.
- Optical elements 54, 55, 61, 62, 63, 64, 71, 72, 73, 74 and mask MA as shown in Fig. 1 and the like can be incorporated. Thus, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the reflection characteristics of the optical element.
