DEVICE MANUFACTURE INVOLVING LITHOGRAPHIC PROCESS

摘要

Fabrication of devices of Micron and submicron minimum feature size is accomplished by lithographic processing involving a back focal plane filter. A particularly important fabrication approach depends upon mask patterns which produce images based on discrimination as between scattered and unscattered radiation by accelerated electrons. Use of such masks is of value as applied to scanning systems providing for dynamic correction of aberrations by physical movement of or field shaping of the objective lens to maintain the optical axis coincident with the scanning information-containing beam.
