- the polarization switching mechanism 38 is set so that the pattern pitch direction and the vibration direction of the electric field vector of the illumination light are parallel. Further, the wavelength switching mechanism 37 uses a narrow-band wavelength at which interference caused by reflected light from the substrate W and reflected light from the pattern layer surface by the imprint material R becomes strong. Thereby, the image detected by the image sensor 35 can be clarified, and whether the pattern layer is formed without unevenness (imprint defect is detected) can be detected.

Abstract
Description
(インプリント装置について)
図1に第1実施形態のインプリント装置IMPを示す。本実施形態のインプリント装置IMPは、基板Wを保持する基板保持部1と、基板保持部1を支持して移動させる基板ステージ2(基板駆動部)を備える。また、インプリント装置IMPには、パターンPが形成された型Mを保持する型保持部3と、型保持部3を支持して移動させる型ステージ4(型駆動部)と、基板W上にインプリント材Rを供給する供給部11(ディスペンサ)を備える。ただし、インプリント装置IMPにインプリント材Rが供給された基板Wを搬入して、インプリント処理を行う場合には、供給部11はインプリント装置IMPに備えていなくても良い。また、インプリント装置IMPは、インプリント処理を制御する制御部CNTと、インプリント装置IMPの操作画面を生成するコンソール部CONSと、操作画面を表示する表示装置12(出力部)と、キーボードやマウスなどの入力デバイス13を備える。制御部CNTには演算部CALを含む。
次に、インプリント装置IMPで行われるインプリント処理について説明する。図2はインプリント装置IMPで行われるインプリント処理のフローチャートである。
第1実施形態のインプリント装置IMPは、インプリント処理を行う際に、検出部Sによって基板Wからの光を検出することで、インプリント材Rの状態を観察することができる。ここではインプリント材の状態を検出することで、型Mとインプリント材Rの接触状態を観察する。以下、検出部Sが基板Wからの反射光を検出する方法について説明する。
第1実施形態の照明用の光源32は例えばハロゲンランプやキセノンランプ、メタルハライドランプなどの放射ランプであり、波長帯域の広い光を放射する。検出部Sは、型Mとインプリント材Rとの接触状態を観察するために、型Mと基板Wの反射光により形成される干渉縞を検出している。型Mと基板Wとの間隔をd、照明光の波長をλとしたとき、2d=mλ(mは自然数)のときに型Mと基板Wの反射光が強め合って明リングが観察され、2d=(m+1/2)λのときには型Mと基板Wの反射光が打ち消し合って暗リングが観察される。型Mと基板Wを波長帯域の広い白色光で照明すると、観察される干渉縞のピッチが波長毎に少しずつずれて重なるため、干渉縞のコントラストが低下する。そのため、照明光の波長帯域は狭いことが望ましい。
基板Wに形成された下地層Bにパターンが形成されている場合がある。例えば下地層Bに、一方向に伸びるラインアンドスペース(L/S)パターンが形成されており、L/Sパターンのピッチが検出部Sから照射される照明光の波長よりも短いことがある。このように照明光の波長よりも小さい構造物をもつパターンの有効屈折率は、構造物の屈折率と構造物のピッチや線幅、深さ、さらには入射光の偏光方向によって変化する。
基板Wには、検出部Sの照明光を吸収する下地層Bが形成されている場合がある。このような場合、基板Wの反射率は低い。そのため、型Mと基板Wの反射光により形成される干渉縞を検出することができないことがある。このような場合、基板Wを明視野照明から暗視野照明に切替えて照明することで型Mとインプリント材Rとの接触状態を観察できる場合がある。
第1実施形態の検出部Sは、明視野照明と暗視野照明を切り替えるための照明方式切替機構39が構成されている。照明方式切替機構39は不図示のターレットもしくはスライド機構に配置された照明絞りを有している。照明絞りはレンズ36の瞳面と光学的に共役な面に配置されており、照明瞳の形状を決める。図4に示すように、明視野照明を行う場合には、照明絞りは、レンズ36の瞳面に配置された開口絞り40よりも空間的に小さい光のみを透過させ、開口絞り40よりも大きな光を遮光する。暗視野照明を行う場合には、その逆に、照明絞りは、開口絞り40よりも空間的に大きい光のみを透過させ、開口絞りよりも小さな光を遮光する。
図10はインプリント処理(インプリント工程)に対応した、基板W表面の状態の変化を表している。基板ステージ2や型ステージ4の駆動部が駆動することによりインプリント処理が行われる。したがって、駆動部の駆動シーケンスに応じて、基板上のインプリント材の状態が変化する。図10(A)は、インプリント処理を開始した時の基板W表面の状態を示しており、基板W上は未処理の状態である。
図10(E)は図2で説明したS05の離型工程時の基板W表面の状態を示している。S05の離型工程では、型Mを硬化したインプリント材Rから剥がすための力である離型力を低減するために、型Mの中心を凸形状に変形させながら、型Mを基板Wから離している。この離型工程時に、基板Wを型M側に凸形状に変形させても良い。このためS05の離型工程時でも、S02の押印工程と同様に図3のような型Mとインプリント材Rとが接触した領域と、その周囲に光の干渉による干渉縞が見られる。
図15、図16に基づいて第3実施形態のインプリント方法について説明する。図15と図16は、図12に示した検出モードの編集手段を提供する。
図15に示す検出モード編集画面161では、検出モード毎に検出部サブユニットDSの検出条件を編集する編集手段を提供する。図15の検出モードテーブル162では、登録されている検出モードと、検出モード毎の検出部サブユニットDSの設定を表示している。検出モードテーブル162の行163には検出モードの種類、また、検出モードテーブル162の列164には検出モードを構成する検出部サブユニットDS毎の設定を表示している。検出モード編集画面161は、図1のコンソールCONSで生成されて表示装置12に表示される。検出モード編集画面161を編集する際には、図1のキーボードやマウスなどの入力デバイス13により、項目166のように編集対象を選択した後、操作ボタン群165を操作することで行う。
また、上記何れの実施形態も、インプリント装置IMPとして、光(紫外線)を照射することでインプリント材(光硬化樹脂)を硬化させるインプリント方法である、光硬化法を適用した装置について説明してきた。しかし、本発明はインプリント装置IMPとして、熱によってインプリント材Rを硬化させる熱硬化法を適用した装置でもよい。この場合、インプリント材Rは熱可塑性もしくは熱硬化性を有する樹脂を用いる。インプリント装置IMPには、インプリント材Rに熱を供給する熱源を備える。本発明はインプリント工程の時に検出部Sで、基板に供給されたインプリント材と型が接触した接触領域やその周囲の干渉縞を検出できれば、熱サイクル法を用いたインプリント方法であっても良い。
物品としてのデバイス(半導体集積回路素子、液晶表示素子等)の製造方法は、上述したインプリント装置を用いて基板(ウエハ、ガラスプレート、フィルム状基板)にパターンを形成する工程を含む。さらに、該製造方法は、パターンを形成された基板をエッチングする工程を含みうる。なお、パターンドメディア(記録媒体)や光学素子などの他の物品を製造する場合には、該製造方法は、エッチングの代わりに、パターンを形成された基板を加工する他の処理を含みうる。本実施形態の物品製造方法は、従来の方法に比べて、物品の性能・品質・生産性・生産コストの少なくとも一つにおいて有利である。
