    摘要: In a multilayer bandpass filter, capacitances are produced between a ground electrode provided in a ground electrode formation layer and capacitor electrodes provided in a capacitor electrode formation layer. A plurality of inductor electrodes are defined by via-electrodes and line electrodes such that loop planes of inductor electrodes at least partially overlap each other when seen in a direction in which the inductor electrodes are arranged. The direction of the loop of the inductor electrode of the LC parallel resonator located (at a first stage) at an input end is set to be opposite to the direction of the loop of the inductor electrodes of the LC parallel resonator (at a second stage) adjacent to the inductor electrode of the LC parallel resonator located at the input end. Similarly, the direction of the loop of the inductor electrode of the LC parallel resonator located (at a fifth stage) at an output end is set to be opposite to the direction of the loop of the inductor electrodes of the LC parallel resonator (at a fourth stage) adjacent to the inductor electrode of the LC parallel resonator located at the output end.

    摘要: A stage device suitable for exposure apparatus used to produce semiconductor devices, is movable in an area wider than the measurement area of interferometer for position measurement, and is capable of measuring the position with high precision. When a movable stage moves from the position where the laser beams from laser interferometers are not applied into the measurement area of the laser interferometer, the position of reference mark is measured by a wafer alignment sensor, and the measurement value measured by the laser interferometer is corrected based on the results of the measurement by the wafer alignment sensor. When another movable stage enters the measurement area of the laser interferometer, the position of the reference mark is similarly measured by a wafer alignment sensor, and the measurement value measured by the laser interferometer is corrected based on the results of the measurement by the wafer alignment sensor.

    摘要: An imagery characteristic is corrected by changing the position and/or orientation of a reticle or lens elements of a projection lens system. Correction of the imagery characteristic, however, causes displacement of the projected pattern image of the reticle. The relation between the driving amount of the lens elements and reticle and the lateral displacement of the center of the pattern image of the reticle is stored as a table in advance. When the lens elements and/or the reticle are driven, lateral displacement of the pattern image can be obtained by accessing the table. Alternatively, the lateral displacement can be determined using a base-line amount corresponding to a distance between a detection center of a substrate position detector and a center of the projected image. Once the pattern image displacement is determined, the substrate can be accurately positioned. In another arrangement, a mask alignment method prevents positional shift of a projected image of a mask pattern even if the projection magnification of the projection optical system is changed.

    摘要: A scanning type exposure apparatus comprises a mask stage RST for scanning a mask R across an illumination area on the mask R, a projection optical system PL for projecting an image of a pattern on the mask R onto a photosensitive substrate W, and a substrate stage WST for scanning the photosensitive substrate W across an exposure area. The apparatus comprises an image pickup unit 53 having its light-receiving section 1 provided on the substrate stage WST, for photoelectrically detecting an image of a mark pattern on the mask R, and a combining unit 4 for combining signals outputted from the image pickup unit 53 during a period in which the light-receiving section is scanned across the exposure area in synchronization with scanning for the mark pattern across the illumination area. Image formation characteristics or a position of the image of the mark pattern is determined on the basis of an output of the combining unit 4, which may be corrected before actual exposure. Correction is also performed by using synchronization errors. It is also possible to use an edge scan type sensor in place of the image pickup unit 53.

    摘要: A method of detecting a focus position of a projection optical system at a high throughput and with high accuracy. A sensor pattern (SP) which is provided on a wafer stage (WS) as a light-receiving part of a photoelectric sensor (PES) is moved in the direction of an optical axis (AX) of a projection optical system (PL), and at the same time, it is moved in a direction (X) perpendicular to the optical axis (AX). While doing so, a reticle pattern (RP) which is provided on a reticle (R) is illuminated by illuminating light (IL) for exposure, and an image of the reticle pattern (RP) is formed on the sensor pattern (SP) through the projection optical system (PL). Light passing through the sensor pattern (SP) is received by the photoelectric sensor (PES), and a focus position is detected on the basis of the intensity of the transmitted light.
