What it is
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedA stepper projects a reduced image from a patterned reticle onto photoresist-coated wafers. A stepper repeats exposure across the wafer in a step-and-repeat sequence so that many die fields can be printed from the same reticle.
Photolithography exposure follows resist coating, soft bake, and alignment preparation. Photolithography exposure is followed by post-exposure processing, development, and pattern transfer into underlying films by etch or related patterning steps.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedA lithography stepper sits in the patterning portion of the wafer process flow. A lithography stepper is used after wafer surface preparation and resist coating, and before resist development and the subsequent etch, implant, or lift-off sequence that uses the patterned resist.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedA lithography stepper is used to define repeated device patterns and process layers on semiconductor wafers. A lithography stepper supports layer patterning wherever precise optical transfer of reticle features into photoresist is required.
