Paper Abstract
19x nm defect inspection is the strongest candidate for initial EUV production until high-throughput E-Beam or Actinic inspection is ready. However, EUV mask inspection on an optical, 19x nm wavelength tool has some difficulties compared to optical masks. The issue of varying base pattern contrast is an example of one such difficulty. This paper explores the defect sensitivity differences among the base pattern sizes, as well as the relationship between base pattern contrast and defect sensitivity. Focus offset and polarization adjustments on programmed defect test masks are used to create new inspection recipes.
