The photorepeater is intended for fabrication of
metalized master patterns and work photomasks in production of
semiconductor devices and integrated circuits by projection imaging.
The photorepeater operates in automatic mode and is
remotely controlled by the operator. Photorepeater operation is based on
sequential transfer of the reduced reticle pattern on the mask blank.
The Tool operates in sequence in the following automatic modes:
- mask blank loading from the feeding cassette to the coordinate stage carriage holder;
- mask blank holding on the work stage;
- transfer of reduced reticle pattern and automatic focusing on each module;
- mask unloading after exposure to the receiving cassette;
- library for reticle selection and change (10 pcs.).
