- Patterns 16 and 17 are patterns for forming image 2 shown in FIG. 5 on one wafer W.
- the reticle shown in FIG. 8 moves in the longitudinal direction of the stripe 10, that is, in the y direction.
- a subfield 15 for forming a beam for protecting a mark is provided as shown in the figure.
- a subfield 1 for forming a beam for aligning in the X direction is provided inside the subfield 15.
- 3 and subfields 14 for producing a beam for alignment in the y direction are provided alternately in the X direction.

- the alignment between the reticle 100 and the wafer 1 W at the time of exposure is performed every time exposure is performed on one stripe 10. For example, when performing exposure using the reticle shown in FIG. 8, before starting exposure of subfield 12 of stripe 10, alignment is performed using subfields 13 and 14 on the upper side of the figure. After the exposure of the stripe 10 is completed, the positioning is performed using the subfields 13 and 14 on the lower side of the figure. As described above, the subfields 13 and 1 for alignment are located only on the side on which the stripe 10 is first exposed (upper side in the figure). If 4 is provided, alignment is performed before exposure of subfield 12 of stripe 10 starts.
- the electron beam EB from the illumination optical system (condenser-lens 23 in FIG. 3) is deflected by a deflector 24 and irradiated to one of the subfields 15.
- a hole pattern as shown in FIG. 8 is formed in the subfield 15.
- the electron beam EB that has passed through the hole pattern is placed in the corresponding subfield (on the wafer W provided with the alignment mark). (The subfields corresponding to subfields 13 and 14).
- the reticle 100 is irradiated.
- the beam of the hole pattern is further deflected by one deflector in the y direction by the deflector 27, and the image of the hole pattern of the subfield 15 is displayed over the entire area where the alignment mark on the wafer W side is formed.
- To be transcribed By performing such exposure successively on the subfields 15 arranged in the X direction in FIG. 8, protective exposure is performed on all the positioning subfields. As a result, the alignment subfield of the wafer W is sufficiently exposed in advance. This exposure is omitted when a positive resist is used.
- the electron beam EB from the illumination optical system is deflected in the X direction by the deflector 24 to form a subfield 13 for forming a beam for X direction alignment and a subfield 14 for forming a beam for y direction alignment.
- Irradiation is performed one after another, and the electron beam EB patterned by the pattern of each subfield 13 and 14 is sequentially radiated to the subfield provided with the alignment mark on the wafer 1W side.
- each alignment beam is scanned on the wafer 1W, but in the X-axis direction. Scanning is performed in the X-axis direction when detecting alignment marks, and scanning in the y-axis direction when detecting alignment marks in the y-axis direction.
- the alignment is performed. Since secondary electrons are emitted from the markings, the secondary electrons are detected by the detector 40 (see FIG. 3) to detect the relative positional relationship between the reticle 100 and the wafer W. Then, the image of the reticle 100 and the wafer 1 W are aligned based on the detected relative positional relationship, and thereafter, the normal exposure of the subfield 12 is performed.
- the subfields 13 and 14 provided with the alignment marks of the wafer W are subjected to sufficient exposure in advance by the electron beam that has passed through the hole formed in the subfield 15. Therefore, even after the resist development, the negative resists on the subfields 13 and 14 remain, and the positioning marks thereunder are not damaged by etching or the like.
- one subfield (for example, about 250 m) must be added to the protection beam.
- the y-axis deflection for example, about 250 m
- this mark protection exposure is particularly problematic even if the position is shifted by several am. There is no need to worry about aberrations.
- the division projection type exposure apparatus as described above, when the exposure of one stripe 4, 10 is completed while moving the stages 25, 30 at a constant speed, the moving direction of the stages 25, 30 is Then, exposure of the next stripes 4 and 10 is performed.
- the protection exposure performed every time the stripes 4 and 10 are exposed is performed by exposing the stripes 4 and 10 (exposure transfer of the circuit pattern). Performing this when the constant speed of the stage is not guaranteed, such as during stage acceleration / deceleration before and after the exposure, enables the protection exposure to be performed without lowering the throughput.
- the X-axis direction alignment pattern 16 and the y-axis direction alignment pattern 17 are thermally affected by electron beam irradiation when the length of each pattern is too long. Since it becomes unstable, it is good to arrange a lot of 10 to 50 / xm. Industrial applicability
- an exposure apparatus using an electron beam has been described as an example. However, the present invention is applicable to an exposure apparatus using a charged particle beam including an ion beam.
