经过研究，我们发现Ｚｅｒｏ Ｍａｒｋ ａｒｅａ ｄｅｆｏｃｕｓ是一种特殊的Ｌｏｃａｌ ｄｅｆｏｃｕｓ， 由于其发生在Ｚｅｒｏ Ｍａｒｋ区域，那里没有图形，因此是很难检测到，一旦发生， 通常的ＡＤＩ目检无法发现问题，Ｏｖｅｒｌａｙ会发生较大的ｓｈｉｆｔ，Ｌｏｔ如果继续

摘要
在摩尔定律的指引下，半导体工艺的发展经历了从０．３５微米到Ｏ．２５微米， ０．１８微米，０．１３微米，直到现在国内大量生产的最先进的工艺０．０９微米和０．０６８ 微米，同时０．０４５微米也正处在积极研发试验当中。而国际上英特尔等公司正在 将技术节点向０．０３２微米，０．０２２微米推进。

半导体集成电路制作过程中，光刻工艺是非常重要的一道工序。它的重要性 在于准确定义集成电路的图形形态，尺寸，以及前后层之间的对准。光刻工艺的 好坏，对后道制程中蚀刻，离子注入等工艺的准确进行至关重要。
在光刻工艺过程中，我们经常会碰到一个缺陷，那就是焦距异常，焦距异常 就是曝光机在晶圆的某些特定的位置上的曝光焦距超出了该层次的焦深，通常焦 距异常会导致光刻工艺后得到的光阻ｐｒｏｆｉｌｅ异常及ＣＤ值异常，从而进一步导致 刻蚀后得到的图形异常。我们通常在ＡＤＩ阶段可以拦下来的焦距异常最多只能占 焦距异常晶圆中的２０％’３０％，其他的晶圆被放下去之后都会对最终良率造成不同程 度的不良影响。

２．Ｅｄｇｅ ｄｅｆｏｃｕｓ
Ｅｄｇｅ ｄｅｆｏｃｕｓ就是发生在晶圆边缘的焦距异常现象，据统计，Ｅｄｇｅ ｄｅｆｏｃｕｓ对良 率的影响大概在Ｏ．５％’２％之间，虽然不是很大，但是几乎所有的晶圆都有发生， 从总数来看，这种焦距异常对良率的影响是很大的。本文针对Ｅｄｇｅ ｄｅｆｏｃｕｓ发生 的两种根本原因进行研究，从而找到在曝光机程式中可以改善该现象的方法。
