Abstract:
A segmented mask includes a set of cell structures, wherein each cell structure includes a set of features having an unresolvable segmentation pitch along a first direction, wherein the unresolvable segmentation pitch along the first direction is smaller than the illumination of the lithography printing tool, wherein the plurality of cell structures have a pitch along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the unresolvable segmentation pitch is suitable for generating a printed pattern for shifting the best focus position of the lithography tool by a selected amount to achieve a selected level of focus sensitivity.
