Abstract:
An inspection method for a photo-mask in a semiconductor process is provided. First, a first photo-mask with a first wafer anchor point (1st wafer FAM) is provided. Then, Dmax and Dmin are calculated according to the 1st wafer FAM. A second photo-mask and a second mask anchor point (2nd mask FAM) of the second photo-mask are provided. A CD average, and a CD range of the second photo-mask are measured. Finally, the second photo-mask is inspected by using equation A and/or equation B: CD average−2nd mask FAM
