IMAGE PRODUCING METHODS AND IMAGE PRODUCING DEVICES

摘要

The invention relates to microlithography and can be used, for instance for producing integrated circuits or structures having a sub-micron resolution. An image is produced with the aid of the stepped displacement, including continuous displacement of the radiator matrix(es) and/or a material sensitive to a used radiation at a step which is less than d. The diameter of the radiation flux at the output of each radiator is less than 100 nm. The sizes of the radiator matrixes can be equal to or greater than an image size. The displacements are carried out at distances which are equal or less than a maximum center-to-center distance of two adjacent radiators. A matrix of waveguides which are connected to at least one radiation source and made of fibre-optic waveguides having thinned ends or embodied in the form of microcones made of a material which is transparent for the used radiation is used as the radiator matrix. An emissive emitter matrix can also be used in the form of said radiator matrix. Said invention makes it possible to radically simplify a technological process for producing high-resolution images and used equipment.
