摘要:
There is provided an exposure apparatus capable of forming a desirable device pattern by removing unnecessary liquid when performing exposure by projecting a pattern onto the substrate via a projection optical system and the liquid. The exposure device projects an image of the pattern onto the substrate P via the projection optical system and the liquid so as to expose the substrate P. The exposure device includes a liquid removing mechanism 40 which removes the liquid remaining on a part 7 arranged in the vicinity of the image plane of the projection optical system.

Provided is an exposure apparatus that is able to prevent liquid from remaining on a measuring part. An exposure apparatus comprises a measuring system (60), which has a first pattern (61) formed on the upper surface of a substrate stage, and a second area (S2) specified on the upper surface in the vicinity of a first area (S1), which includes the first pattern (61), and a second pattern (80) is formed in the second area (S2) so that the liquid (LQ) that has remained so as to span the first area (S1) and the second area (S2) retreats from the first area (S1) and collects in the second area (S2).
摘要:
An exposure apparatus is provided with an optical system including a liquid, a sensor system for acquiring energy information of an energy beam which is incident on the liquid, and a controller which predicts variation of optical properties of the optical system including the liquid due to energy absorption of the liquid based on the energy information acquired using the sensor system and controls exposure operation with respect to an object based on the prediction results. According to the exposure apparatus, exposure operation without being influenced by the variation of the optical properties of the optical system including the liquid due to the energy absorption of the liquid becomes possible.

The present invention provides a system and a method for sampling groundwater under in-situ condition state in reliable, efficient and economic manner without disturbing environment of formation water present in under-ground layer. There are provided a continuous water sampling process and a batch style water sampling process for sampling formation water by confirming the same environment as that of the groundwater in the under-ground layer. After drilling water has been removed by the continuous water sampling process, formation water is repeatedly sampled by the batch style water sampling process, and a downhole system equipped with the continuous water sampling process and the batch style water sampling process is designed in such structure that it is moved up and down in a casing pipe and inserted into or removed from a packer system in the hole.
摘要:
An exposure method for exposing a substrate with exposure light that irradiates the substrate via a liquid, wherein the concentration of an eluted substance in the liquid on the substrate is set so as to satisfy the condition RW−RP≦1.0×10−3 when RP is the transmittance of the liquid containing an eluted substance eluted from the substrate per 1 mm in the optical path direction of the exposure light, and RW is the transmittance of the liquid that does not contain the eluted substance per 1 mm in the optical path direction of the exposure light.
摘要:
To provide a substrate holding apparatus which can prevent a liquid from entering into a rear surface side of a substrate. A substrate holding apparatus is provided with a base material, a first holding portion formed on the base material for holding the substrate, and a second holding portion formed on the base material for holding a plate member by surrounding the circumference of a processing substrate held by the first holding portion. The second holding portion holds the plate member so as to form a second space on the side of the rear surface of the plate member. On the rear surface of the plate member, an absorbing member is arranged for absorbing the liquid entered from a gap between the substrate held by the first holding portion and the plate member held by the second holding portion.
