摘要
随着大规模集成电路芯片制造步入十几纳米技术节点时代,光刻机的对焦控制变得越来越困难,其精度需要达到几十纳米。基于实际的光刻机对焦控制系统架构和光刻对焦原理,开展了浸没光刻对焦控制统计分析方法研究。根据系统结构分析出一系列误差源,研究了这些误差对总离焦误差的贡献方式及其与总离焦误差的关系。研究结果表明:由于光刻对焦误差中存在非正态分布的误差贡献项,常规正态统计分布使用的3σ原则就无法满足99.7%的对焦成功率要求;在28,14,7 nm技术节点集成电路芯片制造过程中,采用3σ和4σ原则得到的浸没光刻工艺总对焦成功率之差分别为28.4%、55.1%、62.9%。为了达到99.7%的对焦成功率,浸没式光刻机对焦控制应采用4σ原则。
Abstract
As large-scale integrated circuit chips manufacturing steps into the era of tens of nanometers technology node, the focus control of the lithography machine becomes more and more difficult with the precision of several tens of nanometers. In this paper, a statistical analysis method of immersion lithography focusing control is studied based on the architecture and lithography focusing principle of actual lithography machine focusing control system. A series of error sources are obtained based on the system structure, and their contribution way and relationship to the total defocus error are investigated. The results show that due to the non-normal distribution error contribution term in lithography focusing error, the 3σ principle used in the normal statistical distribution can not meet the 99.7% focusing success rate requirement. In the manufacturing process of 28,14,7 nm technology node integrated circuit chips, the difference of the total focusing success rates of immersion lithography can be as high as 28.4%, 55.1% and 62.9%, when 3σ and 4σ principles are used respectively. In order to reach 99.7% focusing success rate, the 4σ principle should be used in the focus control of immersion lithography.
