This CD course will provide an overview of optical design techniques that are specifically applied to microlithographic projection lenses. A brief discussion of geometrical optics and aberration theory provides the theoretical basis for a description of strategies to avoid, minimize, or compensate for aberrations, both in the design and manufacture of such lenses. Aberration tolerances are also discussed in relation to their impact on lithographic image quality criteria, in particular critical dimension control and overlay.
