Publication number: 20240152060Abstract: A method and system for predicting process information (e.g., phase data) using a given input (e.g., intensity) to a parameterized model are described. A latent space of a given input is determined based on dimensional data in a latent space of the parameterized model for a given input to the parameterized model. Further, an optimum latent space is determined by constraining the latent space with prior information (e.g., wavelength) that enables converging to a solution that causes more accurate predictions of the process information. The optimum latent space is used to predict the process information. The given input may be a measured amplitude (e.g., intensity) associated with the complex electric field image. The predicted process information can be complex electric field image having amplitude data and phase data. The parameterized model comprises variational encoder-decoder architecture.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 2022Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicant: ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Patrick Philipp HELFENSTEIN, Scott Anderson MIDDLEBROOKS, Maxim PISARENCO, Markus Gerardus Martinus Maria VAN KRAAIJ, Alexander Prasetya KONIJNENBERG

Patent number: 11966168Abstract: Methods of measuring variation across multiple instances of a pattern on a substrate or substrates after a step in a device manufacturing process are disclosed. In one arrangement, data representing a set of images is received. Each image represents a different instance of the pattern. The set of images are registered relative to each other to superimpose the instances of the pattern. Variation in the pattern is measured using the registered set of images. The pattern comprises a plurality of pattern elements and the registration comprises applying different weightings to two or more of the plurality of pattern elements. The weightings control the extent to which each pattern element contributes to the registration of the set of images. Each weighting is based on an expected variation of the pattern element to which the weighting is applied.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2021Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: ASML NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Antoine Gaston Marie Kiers, Scott Anderson Middlebrooks, Jan-Willem Gemmink

Publication number: 20240102471Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a universal-type bracket that incorporates a substantially uniform diameter through-bore. This allows the bracket to accept current sealing arrangements used in these types of pumps, while providing the same or better sealing options as current individual designs. The single through-bore can have multiple undercut features for holding a pump shaft bushing, with an increased wall thickness to allow for an appropriate interference fit with the walls of the through-bore, for example, similar to previous designs. Retaining ring grooves can be added to the through-bore, and retaining rings may be used to provide a positive shoulder for the seal or packing rings to seat against inside the bore. This may allow for various sealing options, such as stuffing seals, one-piece barrier seals, cartridge seals, BTR seals, component seals, and more.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: Viking Pump, Inc.Inventors: Justin PIERCE, Andrew ANDERSON, Alfonso JOHNSON, Dylan LENDE, Scott MEYER

Patent number: 11940740Abstract: In a lithographic process, product units such as semiconductor wafers are subjected to lithographic patterning operations and chemical and physical processing operations. Alignment data or other measurements are made at stages during the performance of the process to obtain object data representing positional deviation or other parameters measured at points spatially distributed across each unit. This object data is used to obtain diagnostic information by performing a multivariate analysis to decompose a set of vectors representing the units in the multidimensional space into one or more component vectors. Diagnostic information about the industrial process is extracted using the component vectors. The performance of the industrial process for subsequent product units can be controlled based on the extracted diagnostic information.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2022Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: ASML NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Alexander Ypma, Jasper Menger, David Deckers, David Han, Adrianus Cornelis Matheus Koopman, Irina Lyulina, Scott Anderson Middlebrooks, Richard Johannes Franciscus Van Haren, Jochem Sebastiaan Wildenberg
