Patent number: 6620565Abstract: An apparatus and method of focusing including a source for producing an electron beam, a mask and a projection column, through which the electron beam passes, and a wafer on which the electron beam is to be focused. The wafer is located in a plane where spherical aberrations of the projection column reduce the negative defocusing effect caused by chromatic aberrations in the projection column. The apparatus and method are applicable to general electron patterning tools, electron patterning tools where a thickness of the mask is smaller than an electron mean free path of the electron patterning tool, and the SCALPEL™ electron patterning tool.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2002Date of Patent: September 16, 2003Assignee: Agere Systems, Inc.Inventors: Victor Katsap, Eric Munro, John Andrew Rouse, Warren K.

Patent number: 6420714Abstract: An apparatus for projection lithography is disclosed. The apparatus has at least one magnetic doublet lens. An aperture scatter filter is interposed between the two lenses of the magnetic doublet lens. The aperture scatter filter is in the back focal plane of the magnetic doublet lens system, or in an equivalent conjugate plane thereof. The apparatus also has two magnetic clamps interposed between the two lenses in the magnetic doublet lens. The clamps are positioned and configured to prevent substantial overlap of the magnetic lens fields. The magnetic clamps are positioned so that the magnetic fields from the lenses in the magnetic doublet lens do not extend to the aperture scatter filter.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2000Date of Patent: July 16, 2002Assignee: Agere Systems Guardian Corp.Inventors: Victor Katsap, Eric Munro, John Andrew Rouse, Warren K Waskiewicz, Xieqing Zhu
