Laser produced plasma sources for nanolithography—Recent integrated simulation and benchmarking
Photon sources for extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) are still facing challenging problems to achieve high volume manufacturing in the semiconductor industry. The requirements for high EUV power, longer optical system and components lifetime, and efficient mechanisms for target delivery have narrowed investigators towards the development and optimization of dual-pulse laser sources with hi...
متن کاملLifetime measurements on collector optics from Xe and Sn extreme ultraviolet sources
Next generation lithography to fabricate smaller and faster chips will use extreme ultraviolet EUV light sources with emission at 13.5 nm. A challenging problem in the development of this technology is the lifetime of collector optics. Mirror surfaces are subjected to harsh debris fluxes of plasma in the form of ions, neutrals, and other radiation, which can damage the surface and degrade refle...
متن کاملOptimum Pre-pulsing and Target Geometry of LPP for Efficient EUV and BEUV Sources
Light sources for extreme ultraviolet Lithography (EUVL) are continued to face challenges in the demanding performance for high volume manufacture. Currently EUV and beyond EUV (BEUV) community are focused on the dual-pulse laser produced plasma (LPP) using droplets of mass-limited targets. These systems require extensive optimization to enhance the conversion efficiency (CE) and increase compo...
متن کاملAdvances in computer simulations of LPP sources for EUV Lithography
Photon sources for extreme ultraviolet Lithography (EUVL) are still challenging problem to achieve high volume manufacture in the semiconductor industry. Currently EUVL community narrowed the research and developments to two directions: discharge produced plasma (DPP) assisted with trigger lasers and dual-pulse laser produced plasma (LPP) with mass-limited targets. Such complicated systems requ...
متن کاملAnalysis of atomic and ion debris features of laser-produced Sn and Li plasmas
Tin and lithium plasmas emit efficiently in the in-band region 13.5 nm with 2% bandwidth necessary for extreme ultraviolet EUV lithography. We have made a detailed comparison of the atomic and ionic debris, as well as the emission features of Sn and Li plasmas under identical experimental conditions. Planar slabs of pure Sn and Li were irradiated with 1064 nm, 9 ns neodymium-doped yttrium alumi...
