摘要:
A method and system for manufacturing a surface having a multiplicity of slightly different patterns is disclosed. The method comprises using a stencil mask having a set of characters for forming the patterns on the surface and reducing shot count or total write time by use of a character varying technique. Application of such a method to fracturing, mask data preparation, or proximity effect correct is also disclosed. A method for optical proximity correction of a design of a pattern on a surface is also disclosed, comprising inputting desired patterns for the substrate and inputting a set of characters, some of which are complex characters, that may be used to form the pattern on the surface. A method of creating glyphs is also disclosed.
