Abstract:The commercial applicability of electron beam projection lithography systems may be limited at high resolution because of low throughput. The main limitations to the throughput are:• Beam current. The Coulomb interaction between electrons result in an image blur. Therefore less beam current can be allowed at higher resolution, impacting the illumination time of the wafer. • Exposure field size. Early attempts to improve throughput with "full chip" electron beam projection systems failed, because the systems su… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
