Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a radiation detector 1, a method of manufacturing a radiation detector, and a lithographic apparatus including a radiation detector. SOLUTION: The radiation detector has a radiation-sensitive surface. The radiation-sensitive surface is sensitive to radiation with a wavelength between 10-200 nm and/or for charged particles. The radiation detector 1 has a silicon substrate, a dopant layer, a first electrode and a second electrode. The silicon substrate is provided in a surface area at a first surface side with doping profile of a certain conductivity type. The dopant layer is provided on the first surface side of the silicon substrate. The dopant layer has a first layer of dopant material and a second layer. The second layer is a diffusion layer which is in contact with the surface area at the first surface side of the silicon substrate. The first electrode is connected to the dopant layer. The second electrode is connected to the silicon substrate. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
The present invention comprises a lithographic apparatus and device manufacturing method that uses a patterning device that increase a number of individually controllable elements that are programmed simultaneously to increase an update rate of an array of individually controllable elements. A number of required high speed analog inputs to the array is reduced. The complexity of the array is reduced and the maximum update speed of the array is increased. Furthermore, the number of elements within an array can be readily expanded. The patterning device can be divided into a plurality of groups of cells and the lithographic apparatus can comprise a plurality of supply channels. Each supply channel can be arranged to provide a voltage signal to each cell in a respective group of cells. This can reduce the number of required inputs to the patterning device for individually addressing each cell.
Abstract:
A lithographic apparatus includes a substrate table to hold a substrate; a substrate table position measurement system to measure a position quantity of the substrate table, a projection system to project a patterned radiation beam onto a target portion of the substrate, a fluid supply system (LS) to supply an immersion fluid (IML) in a space between a downstream lens of the projection system and the substrate (W) and a leakage detection system (LDC) to detect leakage of the immersion fluid from the fluid supply system, the leakage detection system being constructed to detect leakage by measuring an electrical capacitance between two mutually isolated electrial conductors (COND1,COND2).
