  • Patent number: 11762495
    Abstract: This application provides an electronic device, including: a processor, configured to select one of an absolute coordinate mode and a relative coordinate mode according to a switching instruction. When the processor uses the absolute coordinate mode, absolute coordinate information received by the processor is run in the absolute coordinate mode; and when the processor uses the relative coordinate mode, the absolute coordinate information received by the processor is converted into relative coordinate information and is run in the relative coordinate mode. Therefore, this application performs adaptive conversion between the absolute coordinate mode and the relative coordinate mode, to provide users with more flexible operations.

  • Publication number: 20230288820
    Abstract: Particulate deposition rate on a photolithographic mask, particularly of tin (Sn) particles produced within an EUV light source, is reduced by producing turbulence within a radiation source chamber of the EUV light source. Turbulence can be produced by changing the temperature, pressure, and/or gas flow rate within the radiation source chamber. The turbulence reduces the number of particles exiting the EUV light source which could be deposited on the photomask.
