Abstract
Two types of new optical system for 150 nm lithography are studied. One is the system with KrF source and high numerical aperture (NA), the other is the system with ArF source. By aerial image simulation, the adequate NA of each projection lens is searched, and the value was 0.68 for KrF source and 0.60 for ArF source. Then the projection lens is fabricated and evaluated. The results are almost same as those of simulation.
