Abstract: Disclosed is an exposure apparatus, an exposure method and an exposure mask, for improved optical lithography. Specifically, in accordance with one preferred form of the invention, the exposure apparatus is arranged to be used with an exposure mask having an elastically deformable holding member and a light blocking film provided on the holding member and being formed with an opening pattern, wherein for exposure the exposure mask is flexed to be brought into contact with an object to be exposed. The exposure apparatus includes a distance detecting system for detecting a distance between the exposure mask before being flexed and the object to be exposed, and a distance controlling system for controlling the distance between the exposure mask before being flexed and the object to be exposed, on the basis of a signal from the distance detecting system.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical element which includes a photonic crystalline structure and can be reduced in size and weight and integrated to a higher scale and an optical control method using the same. SOLUTION: The optical element has a substrate having the photonic crystalline structure which is formed of two optical media, an optical medium 101 variable in refractive index and an optical medium 102 substantially invariable in the refractive index and of which the refractive index changes periodically and a refractive index control means 103 which controls the refractive index of at least a portion of the optical medium 101 variable in the refractive index. The defect of the refractive index periodic structure or another refractive index periodic structure is introduced into the photonic crystalline structure by the refractive index control means 103, by which a photonic band gap is changed and the state of incident light can be controlled.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve problems of a conventional localized plasmon resonance sensor using metal particles such that the peak strength of an absorbance spectrum decreases and the width of the spectrum becomes broad due to variations in size of the metal particles and random configuration thereof, and limitation of the sensor's sensitivity due to small changes in a signal for detecting changes in a medium near the metal particles. SOLUTION: The sensor device comprises a metal film having a plurality of openings, a sensor material located in the opening, a light source, and a photodetector detecting light which is transmitted through or reflected by the opening after irradiated from the light source, wherein the openings is periodically located in a first direction of the metal film, and the size and interval of the openings in the direction are not greater than the wavelength of the light. A sensor medium comprises the metal film and the sensor material, wherein the size and interval of the openings which are periodically located in the first direction are not greater than 200 nm. An inspection method uses the sensor device or the sensor medium. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
