2. Description of the Related Art In an exposure process of a semiconductor integrated circuit or a liquid crystal display element, a circuit pattern on a mask is transferred to a resist applied on a substrate using an exposure apparatus. Since a semiconductor element or the like has a three-dimensional structure, a substrate often has a step. Since the light incident on the step portion of the substrate is reflected in an oblique direction, there arises a problem that the portion shielded by the mask is exposed. Further, even when the substrate is flat, if the reflectance of the substrate is large, the resist shape is deteriorated due to the effect of the standing wave. Heretofore, in order to solve these problems, a method of forming an antireflection film on a substrate has been known. There is also known a method of reducing light reaching a substrate by using a die-containing resist.

The method using an anti-reflection film cannot be used depending on the process because of contamination of the substrate. There is also a problem that the number of steps for forming the antireflection film increases. In order to greatly reduce the light reaching the substrate using the die-containing resist, it is necessary to increase the absorptivity of the resist. As a result, there arises a problem that the resist profile is lost vertically.

The illumination light is diffracted by the pattern on the mask. As the mask pattern becomes finer, the diffraction angle increases. For this reason, as shown in FIG.
In the case of 1, no image is formed on the wafer 28 because only the zero-order light 25 passes through the projection optical system 27. In contrast, FIG.
In the case of the obliquely incident illumination light 29 as shown in FIG.
In addition, since the + 1st-order light 26 or the -1st-order light 24 passes through the projection optical system, an image is formed on the wafer 28.

Since the openings 31 and 32 are apart from the center of the secondary light source 30, the illumination light enters the mask obliquely. The position of the opening corresponds to a portion where σ = 0.5 to 0.6 when represented by a commonly used coherent factor σ. The difference between FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B lies in the polarization direction of the illumination light. In FIG. 3A, the light passing through the opening 31 is P-polarized with respect to the plane of incidence, but FIG.
In the figure, the light passing through the opening 32 is S-polarized with respect to the incident plane.

FIG. 5 shows an electric field intensity distribution 51 obtained when the mask shown in FIG. 4 is irradiated with such illumination light and an image is formed on a resist film 52 on a stepped Si substrate 53 by a projection optical system.
And FIG. The step direction is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the plane of incidence of the illumination light so that the influence of reflection is greatest. FIG. 5 corresponds to P-polarized light, and FIG. 6 corresponds to S-polarized light. The width of the light shielding part 23 and the transparent part 41 on the mask in FIG. 4 is 0.2 μm when projected on a wafer. The illumination light is KrF excimer laser light (wavelength 248n).
m), the numerical aperture of the projection optical system is 0.6. It is known that the resist reacts to an electric field and the magnetic field does not contribute to the exposure of the resist. Looking at the electric field intensity distribution in the resist, the reflected light penetrates to the light-shielded portion with S-polarized light, but does not penetrate with P-polarized light. For this reason, FIG.
The use of the illumination optical system of (a) can reduce the influence of substrate reflection.

を考慮すると同様な現象が生じる。
The reason why such a phenomenon occurs will be described below. It is known that the reflectivity of light varies greatly depending on the polarization state. For example, when light is incident on a medium having no absorption at a Brewster angle, the reflectance of P-polarized light becomes zero. Since the semiconductor substrate generally absorbs light, there is no Brewster angle. However, when light is incident obliquely, the reflectance of P-polarized light is much smaller than that of S-polarized light. Specifically, resist (refractive index n = 1.76, absorption coefficient k = 0.01)
FIG. 7 shows the result of calculating the reflectance at the interface between 2) and Si (n = 1.41, k = 3.35). The refractive index used in the calculation is a value at a wavelength λ = 248 nm of a KrF excimer laser. When the incident angle is around 60 degrees, the reflectance of P-polarized light is reduced to about half that of S-polarized light. As a physical explanation, in the case of S-polarized light, the direction of the induced current generated at the boundary surface coincides with the direction of the electric field, so that a large induced current occurs and the reflectance increases. Current is hardly generated, and the reflectance decreases. The calculation of the reflectance in FIG. 7 corresponds to the case where light is incident on a planar substrate from an oblique direction. However, a similar phenomenon occurs in the case of a substrate having a step when the direction of the induced current is taken into consideration.
