  • Abstract
    It is revealed by optical image calculations that iso-focal tilt in phase edge lithography can be corrected by adjustment of primary spherical aberration. Tolerant range of the adjustment is /spl sim/0.02 wave. Moreover, DOF becomes larger than that in ideal optics under corrected spherical aberrations with large RMS-OPD of /spl sim/0.66 wave.
