Reticle design for the reduction of lens heating phenomenon

摘要

A reticle for lens heating mitigation includes a substrate, a target pattern and a redistributive pattern. The substrate includes a live pattern region and the target pattern is disposed within the live pattern region for constructing the target pattern onto a wafer. The redistributive pattern is also disposed within the live pattern region for redistributing energy onto a lens without being printed onto the wafer and without correcting said target pattern to be printed onto the wafer.
