  • Patent number: 11676263
    Abstract: An extreme ultraviolet (EUV) collector inspection apparatus and method capable of precisely inspecting a contamination state of an EUV collector and EUV reflectance in accordance with the contamination state are provided. The EUV collector inspection apparatus includes a light source arranged in front of an EUV collector to be inspected and configured to output light in a visible light (VIS) band from UV rays, an optical device configured to output narrowband light from the light, and a camera configured to perform imaging from an UV band to a VIS band. An image by wavelength of the EUV collector is obtained by using the optical device and the camera and a contamination state of the EUV collector is inspected.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20210183618
    Abstract: Embodiments of the inventive concepts provide antennas, plasma generating circuits, plasma processing apparatus, and methods for manufacturing semiconductor devices using the same. The circuits include radio-frequency power sources generating radio-frequency powers, antennas receiving the radio-frequency powers to generate plasma and having a first mutual inductance, and inductors connecting the antennas to the radio-frequency power sources, respectively. The inductors have a second mutual inductance reducing and/or canceling the first mutual inductance.
