Abstract

While thin-film deposition enables one dimension of a device to be made with remarkable precision, down to, say, 10 Å, the other two dimensions are more difficult to form with the same degree of accuracy. Two-dimensional patterns are usually made on the surface by the process of lithography,(136) which derives from printing plate technology. The trend in microfabrication is toward increased circuit complexity and reduced pattern dimensions. Line widths of 0.5 μm and tolerances of 0.1 μm are now common for microcircuits. In order to meet these requirements, the need has arisen for pattern generation and lithography systems with superior performance specifications.
