NSR TFH i 14 DL i-Line
What it is
General reference — not yet source-verifiedHow it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedA stepper projects a reticle pattern through projection optics onto a limited exposure field on the wafer. The stage then moves the wafer to the next field so the exposure sequence can be repeated across the wafer surface. Alignment functions register each patterned layer to features formed in earlier process steps.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedOptical lithography tools are used after wafer preparation and photoresist coating, and before development and pattern transfer. A stepper therefore sits between coat and develop operations in the lithography module of the process flow.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedi-line steppers are used to print patterned layers for semiconductor device fabrication. Such tools are commonly applied to layers that require optical projection exposure for subsequent etch, implant, or deposition pattern definition.
