Abstract
Optical semiconductor lithography in the deep ultraviolet (DUV) and next generation lithographies such as extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) create many new challenges for surface figure metrology. We discuss the needs for flatness metrology of silicon wafers and photomask blanks and how NIST is addressing these needs with two new optical testing interferometers, the NIST infrared interferometer (IR2) for measuring silicon wafers. The other is the XCALIBIR interferometer for the testing of flat, spherical, and aspheric optics.
