    Abstract: Apparatus and method for projection ion beam lithography are described which allow formation of low distortion, large field, reduced images of a mask pattern at a wafer plane using an optical column of practical size. The column shown is comprised of an accelerating Einzel lens followed by a gap lens, with numerous cooperating features. By coordinated selection of the parameters of the optical column, lens distortion and chromatic blurring are simultaneously minimized. Real time measurement of the position of the image field with respect to the existing pattern on the wafer is employed before and during the time of exposure of the new field and means are provided to match the new field to the existing pattern even when the latter has been distorted by processing. A metrology system enables convenient calibration and adjustment of the apparatus.

    Abstract: A particle beam, in particular an ionic optic reproduction system, preferably for lithographic purposes, has a particle source, in particular an ion source for reproducing on a wafer a structure designed in a masking foil as one or several transparent spots, in particular openings, through at least two electrostatic lenses arranged upstream of the wafer. One of the lenses is a so-called grating lens constituted by one or two tubular electrodes (R1, R2) and by a perforated plate arranged in the path of the beam perpendicularly to the optical axis D. The plate is formed by a masking foil M which forms the central or first electrode of the grating lens, in the direction of propagation of the beam.

    Abstract: According to a known projection lithography method an object is imaged on an imaging surface by means of a telescopic system of rotationally symmetrical electron lenses. The throughput during the production of integrated circuits by means of projection lithography is determined by the amount of current in the imaging electron beam; this current is limited by the resolution-limiting interaction of the electrons (Coulomb interaction). The invention allows for a larger beam current in that areas with a high current concentration are avoided. To this end, the imaging system includes five mutually perpendicular quadrupoles, so that the electrons are concentrated in line-shaped focal spots instead of a (small) circular cross-over. The system is telescopic and the imaging is stigmatic with equal magnifications in the x-z plane and the y-z plane.
