Abstract
We present the experimental results of EUVA Absolute Point Diffraction Interferometer (ABSPDI) and Lateral Shearing Interferometer (LSI) for at-wavelength characterization of the projection lens for use in extreme-ultraviolet lithography (EUVL). The attained repeatability of either type of the interferometers is within 0.04nmRMS. The experimental results have shown good consistency between the LSI and ABSPDI. The reasons for the residual differences have been analyzed and we believed it is mainly due to the CCD tilt effect in the experimental system. After the CCD tilt effect was removed, a better consistency below 0.33nm RMS has been achieved.
