Method for adjusting lithographic mask flatness using thermally induced pellicle stress
A method for adjusting the flatness of a lithographic mask includes determining an initial mask flatness of the mask, determining an applied stress for bringing the mask to a desired mask flatness, and determining a mounting temperature of a pellicle frame to be mounted to the mask, the mounting tem...

| Zusammenfassung: | A method for adjusting the flatness of a lithographic mask includes determining an initial mask flatness of the mask, determining an applied stress for bringing the mask to a desired mask flatness, and determining a mounting temperature of a pellicle frame to be mounted to the mask, the mounting temperature corresponding to the applied stress. The actual temperature of the pellicle frame is adjusted to the determined mounting temperature. |
