  • Publication number: 20060290916
    Abstract: Exposure apparatus are disclosed that can control, to high precision, exposure doses on a photosensitive substrate of a mask pattern defined on a reflective mask as the pattern is being exposed on the substrate using a projection-optical system. An exemplary apparatus includes a first illumination sensor for detecting light that is incident on a reflective mask from an illumination system and a second illumination sensor for detecting light that has propagated from the illumination system to a reference reflective surface on the reflective mask, reflected from the reference reflective surface, and arrived at an image surface of the projection-optical system. Calibration of the first sensor is performed based on detection data obtained by the first sensor and detection data obtained by the second sensor. Exposure of the substrate is controlled based on the detection data obtained by the calibrated first sensor.

  • Patent number: 7133481
    Abstract: An input signal DT contains a segment synchronization signal compliant with the ATSC standard. A clock multiplication section 111 multiplies a clock CK. A switchable sampling section 112 selects a sample point from among a plurality of timing points that are defined by the multiplied clock, and samples the input signal DT at the selected sample point. Moreover, the switchable sampling section 112 switches sample points from one to another in a synchronization-unestablished state. Once the segment synchronization is established, a synchronization detection device may maintain a synchronization-established state until the field synchronization detection fails, or the synchronization detection device may output a synchronization detection signal after shifting it in the time direction based on a bit error rate RT of the input signal.
