    Abstract: A semiconductor wafer has at least one pre-layer on-wafer alignment mark (pre-layer on-wafer AM) on a top surface of the semiconductor wafer. A baseline check (BCHK) is performed to align a current-layer reticle AM on a current-layer reticle with the pre-layer on-wafer AM. By capturing and comparing signals of the current-layer reticle AM and the pre-layer on-wafer AM, a corresponding coordinate of the current-layer reticle to the semiconductor wafer is calibrated. Finally, a lithography process is performed to transfer the layout of the current-layer reticle AM to the top surface of the semiconductor wafer to form a corresponding current-layer on-wafer AM.

    Abstract: A photoresist dispense pump receives photoresist from two pipelines, a first pipeline and a second pipeline, and pumps out the photoresist through a third pipeline. The photoresist dispense pump contains a first bellows and a second bellows receiving photoresist from the second pipeline, wherein the first bellows and the second bellows are separated by a partition. Photoresist is fed into the third pipeline from the second bellows. On the center region of the partition, there is a central diaphragm that allows photoresist to flow in a direction from the first bellows toward the second bellows, but not in the reverse direction.
