  • Patent number: 7167295
    Abstract: According to one aspect of the invention, a method and apparatus for polarizing electromagnetic radiation is provided. The electromagnetic radiation may be divided into first and second portions, substantially all of the first portion may be linearly polarized in a first direction and substantially all of the second portion may be linearly polarized in a second direction, the first direction being substantially orthogonal to the second direction. The linear polarization of at least one of the first and second portions may be changed such that substantially all of both of the first and second portions are linearly polarized in a third direction. At least one of the first and second portions may be redirected such that substantially all of both the first and second portions are propagating in a fourth direction.

  • Publication number: 20060250694
    Abstract: A method of modifying polarity of light is provided. The light propagates through a first transverse plane and has known polarization states in respective cells of the first transverse plane. A first retardation compensator having respective waveplates matching the cells then changes the polarity of the light so that light propagating through a second transverse plane is circularly polarized across the entire second transverse plane. A second retardation compensator includes a plurality of quarter waveplates that change the polarization of the circularly polarized light, so that light passing through a third transverse plane is linearly polarized. The crystal alignment of the quarter waveplates and their shape and configuration are selected so that the direction of the polarization is normal to a radius from a single point.

  • Patent number: 7070832
    Abstract: Spraying a surface of a reticle with carbon dioxide snow cleans the surface and removes particles. Further spraying the surface of the reticle with carbon dioxide snow at a temperature below a carbon dioxide sublimation temperature forms a solid carbon dioxide layer on the surface. The solid carbon dioxide layer prevents particles from contacting the surface of the reticle. The solid carbon dioxide layer may be removed, and the reticle may be used in a extreme ultraviolet lithography tool.
