Abstract
Methods and apparatus are provided for performing charged-particle-beam microlithography at improved accuracy. A pattern is formed on a substrate (wafer) by repeated shot exposure of respective areas on a wafer substrate mounted on a wafer stage. Exposure of the wafer is made while the wafer stage is undergoing continuous motion and the charged particle beam making the exposure is being deflected continuously. As the magnitude of the beam deflection changes according to the motion of the stage, correction data for deflecting the beam are updated appropriately so as to correct deflection aberrations continuously.
