The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is embarking on a project to support the Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography (EUVL) community by developing characterization of EUV scintillator materials. Many techniques for measuring spatial distribution (or image) of EUV rely on scintillators or devices that convert EUV radiation into visible light. Scintillators tend to be robust and afford the user the ability to use less costly and easier to characterize, visible light detection or imaging systems. However, their characterization requires specialized techniques and hardware which NIST must develop in order to provide accurate characterization of the performance of EUV scintillators.
This requirement supports the “Optical Metrology for EUV Generation” Project under Grand Challenge 2, “Advanced Metrology for Future Microelectronics Manufacturing, ” for CHIPS R&D Metrology. This requirement enables NIST to construct an ultra-high vacuum microscope to operate in NIST Synchrotron Ultraviolet Research Facility (SURF III) EUV reflectometer beamline. The microscope will allow for the measurement of EUV scintillator efficiency, output spectrum and point spread function.
