Description

皮米尺 技术领域
本发明涉及计量工具,特别是一种皮米尺,是皮米到纳米尺度的计量工具,应用于皮米光刻、皮米成像和皮米物理等多个领域。
背景技术
皮米尺是皮米尺度的计量工具,是皮米成像、皮米测量、皮米光刻的物理基础。皮米尺度的测量是目前科学技术的前沿,发展先进的皮米尺是当今解决皮米测量的关键。
精密光学测量一直是当今科学技术的学科前沿和驱动力。光学的前沿研究从目前已有的微纳光学,进入到皮米光学这个领域。皮米光学研究皮米尺度光学理论、元件及应用,包括皮米光学原理、皮米光学器件、皮米光学测量技术以及皮米光学应用等,其中皮米尺,也就是皮米尺度的计量基准,是目前皮米科学技术应用最关键的计量工具。
由于皮米尺度太小,现在并没有发展出皮米尺这样的物理器件。采用激光干涉仪,由于激光干涉仪有各种误差源,包括:光学、电子噪声、环境干扰等,导致激光干涉仪细分到皮米尺度时,测量信号会对噪声特别敏感,这使得激光干涉仪用于皮米测量的可靠性变差。采用激光引力波技术,或采用法布里波罗腔的测量技术,或许可以得到单点测量的皮米量级信号,但无法满足大范围、高精度、稳定、可靠的皮米测量的需求,例如,下一代半导体光刻技术就需要大量程皮米尺实现高精度的测量与定位。
基于光栅的皮米测量技术为皮米尺提供一种有前途的技术路径。我们知道,在大尺寸光栅激光直写装置的研制过程中,美国麻省理工学院发明了纳米光刻技术(Nanoruler),其中干涉场的周期测量达到了皮米量级(参见在先技术1:Chen C G.Beam alignment and image metrology for scanning beam interference lithography:fabricating gratings with nanometer phase accuracy,美国麻省理工学院博士论文,2003)。上海光机所周常河课题组对干涉场周期精度测量也达到了皮米量级(参见在先技术2:Applied Optics 57,4777-4784(2018));特别是上海光机所周常河课题组发明的扫描参考光栅技术,对双光束干涉场测量得到了 长程皮米精度的实验结果(参见在先技术3,Applied Optics 58,2929-2935(2019)).
我们可以理解,虽然上述在先技术1、2或3均提供激光干涉场周期皮米精度测量,但它们都不能直接应用于物体的皮米尺度测量。基于利用不同光栅周期皮米尺度差值实现皮米器件的思想,周常河发明了皮米光梳技术(参见在先技术4,皮米光梳、皮米光梳的制造装置和制造方法,发明专利申请号:201910368137.9),也就是利用两个光栅皮米尺度的差值,使每个光栅周期内的开口都以皮米或纳米尺度增加或减少,这为皮米尺度的计量提供了坚实的前期研究基础。
在先技术4发明的皮米光梳,确实提供了光栅开口的皮米尺度调制,但不能直接用于皮米显微测量。原因如下:我们无法保证做出连续皮米尺度变化的物体,因为目前没有皮米尺度调制的光刻胶以及相应的显影与定影技术,因此,直接采用皮米光梳(在先技术4),很难实现皮米显微测量功能。
为实现皮米尺度的显微功能,周常河发明了皮米显微镜(参见在先技术5,皮米显微镜,发明专利申请号:201911127409.9),也就是利用皮米结构光场实现皮米显微测量,其中皮米结构光场调制包括采用波长编码、时域编码、或者结构光,实现了皮米尺度的显微测量。
皮米测量技术(在先技术1-3),皮米光梳(在先技术4),皮米显微镜(在先技术5)涉及到了皮米测量、皮米调制、皮米显微成像等方面,这为本发明皮米尺提供了有力的前期技术支撑,但在先技术1-5并没有解决皮米尺这个关键问题,而皮米尺又是皮米测量的基础,因此,有必要发明皮米尺这个皮米尺度的计量器件。
发明内容
本发明的皮米尺是皮米尺度的计量工具,可以有多种表现形式和溯源方法,例如,采用激光干涉仪标定,溯源到激光波长上;它可以通过高密度光栅不同周期的皮米尺度的差值来得到;也可以通过改变皮米光梳光场的多光束之间的夹角而得到皮米结构光场;或者采用不同激光的波长,提供皮米光梳光场皮米尺度的移动;或者采用旋转衍射光学元件、例如达曼光栅的并行激光直写技术,实现激光直写间距的皮米尺度控制。也可以通过反馈控制皮米结构光场与皮米光梳之间或者两个皮米光梳之间的相对移动,提供皮米尺的功能。
本发明的技术解决方案如下
一种皮米尺,是皮米尺度的计量工具,其特点在于包括干涉光场产生机构、精密调节平台和在干涉光场的透射方向或反射方向的探测器,该探测器用于记录测量 精密调节平台运动时干涉光场的干涉信号,实现皮米计量。

具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例对本发明作进一步说明,但不应以此限制本发明的保护范围。
先请参阅图1,图1是本发明皮米尺实施例1的示意图。由图可见,本发明皮 米尺包括干涉光场产生机构、精密调节平台和在干涉光场的透射方向或反射方向的探测器,所述的干涉光场产生机构由全息光束11,12,13形成干涉场15,16,17组成,这个干涉场由激光干涉仪18测量,形成不同长度的皮米尺19。双光束全息的左光束11与右光束12之间有一个夹角,这个夹角决定了全息条纹周期d的大小。右光束12经过所述的精密调节平台转动一个角度θ N后到达全息光束13的位置,干涉场的周期d因此也改变了Δd N,这个改变量Δd N通过激光干涉仪18精确测出,具体测量过程可以参见在先技术3。由于全息干涉场可以精确测量到皮米量级,因此,转动不同的角度θ N就可以得到不同的全息光栅周期值(d+Δd 1),(d+Δd N)等,以此实现皮米尺的基准。
例如,t 1时刻左光束11与右光束12形成的干涉场周期为(d+Δd 1);t N时刻左光束11与右光束13形成的干涉场周期为(d+Δd N)。由于角度θ N可以取任意值,因此,Δd 1,Δd 2,···Δd N就可以得到任意皮米精度的值。对于周期d=833nm的干涉场,两个光栅之间的差值可以为Δd 1=10pm,Δd 2=20pm,···,Δd N=1000pm;将所有这些皮米精度的变化量组合在一起,就可以得到如图1所示的皮米尺19,以此作为皮米尺度计量的基础。
图2(a)是双光束11,12干涉形成全息光栅的示意图,其光栅周期为d,激光波长可以选为λ=405nm,双光束之间的夹角可以选择使得d=833nm。如图2(a)所示,其光栅周期为
d=λ/(sinθ 1+sinθ 2)    (1)
图2(b)是双光束11,12的干涉合束器件,其中23为棱镜对,其中间细实线为合束面,双光束11,12经过中间合束面,形成11′,12′的合束光,在探测器25上形成两者之间的干涉信号。
图2(c)是采用了光栅24的合束器件,其中光栅24的周期与双光束11,12形成的干涉周期完全一致,均为d,在光栅24的-1衍射级次上,形成合束信号11′,12′,探测器25上记录两者之间的干涉信号。
图2(d)是皮米尺20的一种定标方式。21、22、…、2N是皮米尺20的每个周期内的分布,所有21、22、…、2N之间的周期完全一致,皮米尺20的移动量X 2可以由皮米测量装置28测量得到。干涉场周期皮米测量装置28可以包括扫描参考光栅,移动台,激光干涉仪等组成,工作原理参见图2(b),图2(c)。由于皮米尺20的移动量X 2的测量精度可以在纳米或亚纳米量级,假设测量皮米尺的周期个数为N=1000,则每个周期的测量精度可以达到皮米或亚皮米量级,因此,本发明皮米 尺的测量精度是可以保证在皮米精度量级的。
实施例2
图3是本发明皮米尺实施例2的示意图
图3(a)是所述的精密调节平台之一,反射镜31a与反射镜32a有一个移动量ΔX 1,采用激光干涉仪18具有纳米分辨率,如果反射镜31a移动ΔX 1=10nm,两个反射镜31a,32a之间的距离X 1=3mm,则反射光偏转的角度分辨率为Δθ 3=ΔX 1/X 1=3.3nrad,达到了纳弧度量级,满足了本发明图1,图3(c),图4,图5对光束偏振角度精度的要求。
图3(b)是所述的精密调节平台之二,产生有一定夹角的双光束的模块。采用反射镜31b,半透半反镜32b,结合图3(a)的部分,就可以构成Δθ模块,其目的就是产生有精确夹角的双光束32c,33c。
图3(c)是本发明皮米尺实施例2的示意图。皮米光梳光场由光束31c,32c,33c干涉形成,干涉场的一部分为34c,35c,36c,它们之间的周期为d+Δd,其中35c的宽度为ΔX 3,其左侧34c的宽度为ΔX 3-Δd,右侧36c的宽度为ΔX 3+Δd,由于Δd可以通过光束32c,33c之间的夹角Δθ 3设定,使Δd可以从10pm-1000pm连续选择,或者更大到纳米量级。
图3(c)的具体实施例可以为,皮米光梳的周期d=833nm,Δd=100pm,35c的宽度ΔX 3=300nm;36c的宽度为ΔX 3+Δd=300nm+100pm=300.100nm;34c的宽度为ΔX 3-Δd=300nm-100pm=299.900nm。因此,34c,35c,36c之间固定的皮米尺度的差值可以作为皮米尺实施例的一种情况。
实施例3
图4是本发明皮米尺实施例3。光束41是干涉光场的左光束,光束42,43为干涉光场的两束右光束,左光束41与两束右光束42,43的干涉形成了皮米结构光场46,47。当两束右光束42,43在所述的精密调节平台的调节下旋转一个角度Δθ 4到43,44的位置,则其皮米结构光场47就移动到48的位置。由于采用图3(a)或图3(b)的结构,旋转角度Δθ 4可以根据需要控制在纳弧度到微弧度量级,因此,皮米结构光场47到48的移动就可以控制在皮米量级,这也是皮米尺一种实施例。
实施例4
图5是皮米尺的实施例4。不同波长的右光束51,52,和左光束53,54,形成干涉场55,56,57,其中光束51,53为相同波长λ 1的光束,52,54为相同波长λ 2的光束。由图2(a)和公式(1),我们知道,干涉结构55,56,57之间的间距X 5正比 于所用激光的波长λ,如58所示,因此,当51,53所用的波长λ 1变为52,54的波长λ 2时,其干涉结构56会移动到57。控制波长的选择,可以实现X 5的值在皮米量级,例如,X 5=100pm。
实施例5
图6是皮米尺的实施例5。如图6(a)所示,61为所用的入射激光光束,62为衍射光学元件,例如,达曼光栅等。63为入射激光61通过衍射光学元件62后的衍射分布,64为聚焦透镜,其将衍射光学元件62,例如,达曼光栅产生的多光束聚焦在焦面上形成多个焦点,66,67,68等。当衍射光学元件62在所述的精密调节平台的调节下旋转一个角度θ 6时,其产生的多焦点在透镜64的焦面上也会旋转一个角度θ 6,焦点68会旋转到69的位置。如图6(b),假设平台的运动方向为67b,68b,69b所示,则旋转前的焦点间距d就会缩短一个距离Δd。采用精密电子转台,这个转角可以精确控制到微弧度量级,因此,Δd就可以精确控制在皮米量级,例如,d=833nm,Δd=100pm。因此,这是皮米尺第五个实施例。
实施例6
图7是本发明皮米尺的实施例6。71为照明光,72为聚焦透镜,73为经过聚焦透镜72后的聚焦光,74为产生皮米光梳光场的左光束,75、76为右光束,74、75、76的共同作用产生了皮米光梳光场78,其中77为皮米光梳光场上一个周期内的光场分布。79为皮米光梳,其上有Δd、2Δd、3Δd等皮米调制结构,例如,80是其中一个皮米结构,皮米光梳光场上皮米光场结构77和皮米光梳上皮米结构80之间的相对距离为ΔX 8,皮米光梳的移动可以表示为X 8。81为聚焦光73通过皮米光场结构77、皮米光梳结构80后共同作用后的光束,82为会聚透镜,83为会聚透镜82的收聚光束,84为会聚透镜82对应的成像点,84上有光强探测器85,这个探测器上的强度由位相

延迟模块(虚线方框所示)、激光波长λ、产生皮米光梳光场左右光束之间的夹角θ 3,以及两束右光束之间的夹角Δθ 3等所决定。其中激光波长可以由Laserλ模块选择,用于提供给位相
Figure PCTCN2020120368-appb-000002
延迟模块(虚线方框所示)和Δθmodule模块的入射光。通过控制这些变量,可以实现皮米尺的功能,例如,ΔX 8=100pm。
实施例7
图8是本发明皮米尺的实施例7的工作原理。图8(a)说明用激光光束74,75,76,产生皮米光梳光场,用于制造皮米光梳88,89。图8(b)说明皮米光梳88和89完全互补重合时,在入射光场86的照射下,通过这两者88,89的光场在X=0时,其光强为零,I 87=0;图8(c)给出了皮米光梳88和皮米光梳89相互移动X=d时,由 于皮米光梳相邻结构相差一个Δd,所以此时会出现每个周期内出现一个宽度Δd光场的情况,如90,91,92所示,通过探测皮米光场90,91,92,就可以反馈锁定88与89之间的距离,过程如下:93为来自皮米结构光场90的光线,经过聚焦透镜94收聚,形成会聚光线95,照射到探测器96上,经过反馈装置97,控制皮米光梳88,89之间的移动X,实现皮米尺的功能。在88与89之间距离为X=N·Δd时,就会出现每个周期内有宽度为N·Δd皮米光场的情况,由于光强I 87的变化和88,89之间的距离相关,并且这个光强值是在暗场情况下取得的,在探测器足够灵敏的情况下,就可以得到皮米尺度的分辨率,例如,Δd=100pm.
本发明至少公布了七种皮米尺的实施例。这七种皮米尺可以看作为两种溯源方式。图1,2是将皮米尺的基准溯源到激光干涉仪18的激光波长,也就是将所用激光干涉仪的一个纳米细分一千倍,就是一个皮米。更高细分的倍数要考虑激光干涉仪波长的稳定性。如果所用激光干涉仪的波长经过定标后,是准确并稳定的,这里的皮米细分精度就是有保障的。图3(c)皮米尺的基准溯源也是基于所用激光干涉仪的波长,因此,其皮米结构的差值Δd也是有保证的。
图4是基于产生皮米光梳光场的两束光的夹角旋转而得到,因此,采用图3(a),(b)的结构,旋转角度可以锁定在纳弧度量级,则皮米结构光场的移动量ΔX 4也是可以控制的,也就是说,是可以定标的。这个定标可以通过理论计算来实现,也可以通过实验比对来实现。定标后,可以作为皮米尺实际使用。
图5的皮米尺也可以通过定标而使用。因为激光波长λ与所产生的皮米结构的距离X 5成正比,所以这个定标既可以通过理论计算来定标,也可以通过实验测试来定标。定标后,也可以作为皮米尺来使用。
图6的皮米尺的变化量Δd完全由旋转角度θ 6来确定,精密电子转台提供了微弧度量级的转角精度,或采用图3(a)(b)结构,可以通过定标θ 6可以确定Δd的范围。经过定标,也可以作为皮米尺来使用。
图7是本发明皮米尺的实施例6,其中的关键是皮米光梳光场78与皮米光梳79之间相互距离ΔX 8的测量技术。图7所示的皮米光梳结构是其中最简单的结构,如在先技术4所示,皮米光梳具有非常丰富的皮米光场结构,而且由于目前并没有商品化皮米分辨的光刻胶、显影液等,这些因素综合起来,图7所示的皮米尺测量***极具挑战性,但其实现皮米尺的功能又是最有实用意义的。图8说明利用皮米光梳光场做出皮米光梳88,89,利用88和89之间的相互移动,就可以产生周期性皮米光场90,91,92等,探测这些光强的位置,反馈控制皮米光梳88,89之间的 距离X,就可以实现皮米尺的功能。
有必要指出,这些皮米尺前期技术基础在在先技术1-5涉及过,但在先技术1-5并没有涉及皮米尺的核心体系,包括皮米尺的基准、溯源、定标及应用等。例如,在先技术1-3讨论的是干涉场皮米测量技术,并不是一个单独的器件,不是皮米尺;在先技术4是皮米光梳器件,并不是皮米尺;在先技术5讨论的皮米显微镜,研究的是皮米结构光场的产生与成像,不是皮米尺的计量体系和技术。本发明在在先技术1-5的皮米测量技术的基础上,首次引入皮米尺的概念,明确定义了皮米尺及其应用方式,指出了六种实施例,这是在先技术1-5没有的创新内容。根据本发明的原理,还可以构造出更多的皮米尺的实施例,这里并没有全部列举,不应该以此限制本发明的范围。
实验表明,本发明皮米尺提供了可靠、高信噪比的皮米尺度信号和丰富的皮米结构光场。通过这些皮米尺的结构光场,以此可以开发出多种皮米结构光场下光与物质相互作用的测量装置,用于观察多种皮米结构光场作用下,光与物质相互作用的过程,使得我们可以从皮米计量的角度,发现皮米世界新的光学原理、现象及规律,并开发出可靠的皮米测量工具和***。
本发明皮米尺有助于发展皮米成像、皮米光刻、皮米尺度光学技术,开辟皮米飞秒光学、皮米阿秒光学等新兴学科研究方向,应用于半导体光刻、皮米物理、光与物质在皮米尺度相互作用等多个领域。
