MASK CD-SEM supporting sub-2 nm node photomasks
In the lithography process for cutting-edge devices, which are becoming increasingly miniaturized and complex, the number of measurement points is rapidly increasing due to an increase in the number of masks required for multiple exposures and the sophistication of pattern shapes.
In addition, the introduction of Multi Beam Mask Writers and advances in high-performance computing technology have made it possible to design curved patterns and new measurement methods that take curvature into account are underway. With these developments, it has become more important than ever before to accurately identify minute differences between the pattern on the mask and the design data.
The E3660 provides highly accurate and high speed measurement while meeting the measurement needs of advanced masks and master templates for nanoimprinting, including EUV lithography, by offering SEM images with excellent reliability and reproducibility and unique measurement solutions.

-
Significant improvement in measurement accuracy
Compared to the previous model, E3650, measurement accuracy has been improved by more than 20%. -
Large field measurement (Wide field of view measurement)
Simultaneous measurement at multiple points has been achieved using high-precision wide-field SEM images. Furthermore, high-precision SEM contour image extraction functionality provides powerful support for lithography simulation. -
Improved long-term stability of CD measurements
The focus control system using a Z stage and in situ cleaning technology using ozone enable stable CD measurement over a long period of time without adjustment. -
Compatible with Design-Based Metrology (DBM)
A rule-based approach based on design information automatically generates multi-point measurement recipes, enabling high-precision measurement of hot spots and narrow patterns. -
Curvilinear pattern measurement
Various measurement algorithms, including curvature measurement for curved patterns, are provided.
