    摘要: In order that CAD processing time required for modifying an input design pattern to compensate for optical proximity effects is reduced, increases in the number of base shapes when corrected data are converted into EB data are restricted, and false detection of defects in a photomask inspection process is restricted, the following steps are taken. At a shape selection step, rectangular shapes are divided into a dense rectangular shape group and a non-dense rectangular shape group according to the distance of each rectangular shape to an adjacent rectangular shape. At a number-of-shapeas comparison step, the number of shapes included in the dense rectangular shape group is compared to the number of shapes included in the non-dense rectangular shape group to select either shape group for correction. At a correction process selection step, a correction process suited for the selected shape group is selected. At a shape correction step, optical proximity correction is made. At a shape combining step, a group of corrected shapes and the rectangular shape group different from the selected one are combined.

    摘要: After a layout for a semiconductor device including power and ground lines has been defined, patterns for bypass capacitors, which will be located under the power lines, are created. In this case, a pattern for a semiconductor device, where a bypass capacitor array is inlaid and substrate contacts are located under ground lines, is defined based on design rules input. Next, power lines are extracted and resized. Thereafter, logical operations are performed to place the bypass capacitors and the bypass capacitors are resized. Subsequently, logical operations are performed to define interconnecting diffused layers and the diffused layers are resized. Since the patterns for the power lines have already been defined before the patterns for the bypass capacitors are created, the patterns for the bypass capacitors to be placed under the power lines can be defined automatically. Thus, a pattern for a miniaturized semiconductor device with reduced power supply noise can be created automatically.

    摘要: A semiconductor device geometrical pattern correction process, semiconductor device manufacturing process and geometrical pattern extraction process are provided, which make it possible to eliminate the adverse effect of corner rounding accompanying miniaturization, that is, a decrease in the projection amount of a gate, while avoiding increased chip area. The correction process comprises a step 102 of detecting a concave diffusion layer corresponding portion and a step 103 of correcting either the concave diffusion layer corresponding portion or a transistor gate corresponding portion which projects from the concave diffusion layer corresponding portion in order to ensure the projection of the gate from the concave diffusion layer corresponding portion against possible corner rounding.
