Clean room:
lithography must be carried out in a clean-room environment [A] because the presence of dust particles [B] will lower yields.

Yield for a 10-mask lithographic process with various defect densities per level.
In order to improve yield, masks are cleaned / inspected regularly
Yield
the yield of a lithographic step depends critically on mask cleanliness, or how many fatal defects are presence:

There are two types of resists: positive and negative. The final pattern on wafer is the same as (+) or opposite to (–) those on mask.
It is called photo-resist because:photo – it responds to photonsresist – it resists etching / dopant atoms, protecting the layer underneath

Pattern transfertransfers the pattern which appears on the photoresist onto the substrate (Si). The transfer process can be subtractive [A], or additive [B] in nature.
[A] Subtractive: etching(for oxide removal, interconnect)
[B] Additive: metallization(S/D metal, via filling)
Some process (such as doping through photoresist) is neither subtractive nor additive.

EUV: extreme-ultra violet lithography
In an laser produced plasma (LPP)-based system, EUV light is produced by bombarding a sliver of tin with a high-power laser. The light is then gathered by specially engineered EUV mirrors, which then focus an EUV beam in the EUV scanner to produce microchip patterns.

Conclusions• photolithography
– process, principle, tools– resolution limits– resolution-enhancement techniques
• PSM, OPC, Immersion, DP,…• future lithographic systems
– EUV, XRL, ML2 (EBL, IBL), NIL, ...
from ITRS2009:
... To continue as the dominant technique for leading-edge critical layer lithography, resolution enhancement techniques (RETs) such as off-axis illumination (OAI), phase shifting masks (PSMs), and optical proximity corrections (OPCs) are being used with imaging systems at the 193 nm wavelength. In addition to RETs, lenses with increasing numerical apertures and decreasing aberrations will be required to extend the life of optical lithography. Liquid immersion imaging with a fluid between the final lens element and the wafer is also being used to extend optical lithography.
