20140111780 | PROCESSING APPARATUS AND ARTICLE MANUFACTURING METHOD USING SAME - A processing apparatus configured to conduct a prescribed processing on an object to be processed in a specific environment, the processing apparatus comprising: a chamber configured to have an aperture and an interior accommodated to a specific environment; a mechanism of which at least a portion is contained within the chamber interior, while a remaining portion passes through the aperture without contacting the chamber; at least one support member configured to support the mechanism; a sealing member that configures a boundary of the specific environment and an atmospheric environment by connecting one end to the aperture and connecting the other end to the support member; and a rotary member configured to allow relative rotation around a vertical axis between the support member and a structure that supports the support member. | 2014-04-24 |
20140111781 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ULTRAVIOLET (UV) PATTERNING WITH REDUCED OUTGASSING - A method and apparatus for ultraviolet (UV) and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography patterning is provided. A UV or EUV light beam is generated and directed to the surface of a substrate disposed on a stage and coated with photoresist. A laminar flow of a layer of inert gas is directed across and in close proximity to the substrate surface coated with photoresist during the exposure, i.e. lithography operation. The inert gas is exhausted quickly and includes a short resonance time at the exposure location. The inert gas flow prevents flue gasses and other contaminants produced by outgassing of the photoresist, to precipitate on and contaminate other features of the lithography apparatus. | 2014-04-24 |
20140111782 | LITHOGRAPHY APPARATUS, METHOD FOR LITHOGRAPHY AND STAGE SYSTEM - Provided are a lithography apparatus, a method for lithography and a stage system. The lithography apparatus includes a reticle stage having a reticle, at least one nozzle on at least one surface of the reticle stage and configured to allow shielding gas to flow to a surface of the reticle to form an air curtain, and a gas supply unit configured to supply the nozzle with the shielding gas. | 2014-04-24 |
