摘要:
A method operates a continuous annealing line for the processing of a rolled good, in particular a metal strip. A property of the rolled good in relation to a point or a section of the rolled good is fed to a computer-aided model as an input variable. The point or the section of the rolled good is located before or in the continuous annealing line. For the purpose of precise control of the continuous annealing process, at least one material property of the rolled good after the continuous annealing process is simulated by the computer-aided model and compared with a specified target value. If the simulated material property deviates from the target value, at least one process variable of the continuous annealing process is controlled as long as the point or the section of the rolled good is located before or in the continuous annealing line.

A hard mask layer stack for patterning a layer to be patterned includes a carbon layer disposed on top of the layer to be patterned, a first layer of a material selected from the group of SiO2 and SiON disposed on top of the carbon layer and a silicon layer disposed on top of the first layer. A method of patterning a layer to be patterned includes providing the above described hard mask layer stack on the layer to be patterned and patterning the silicon hard mask layer in accordance with a pattern to be formed in the layer that has to be patterned.

摘要:
Input parameters and technically possible parameter values associated therewith are selected, from which are obtained support point values and result values assigned thereto for the geometrical properties. At each support point value, the respective result value is assigned to the parameter value assigned to the respective support point value. A response surface is adapted to the result values in a total range of the assigned parameter values. This results in response values for which a minimum value and a maximum value are determined in subranges. A total interval is formed from the largest response value overall and the smallest response value overall. The total interval is divided into a given number of sub-intervals. For each of the sub-intervals, the individual probabilities are cumulated, which yields a total probability value for a respective sub-interval over all the value intervals.

A semiconductor substrate is provided. A plurality of first conductive lines is formed, followed by forming a plurality of second conductive lines above the first conductive lines. Memory cells are at least partially formed in the semiconductor substrate. Thereafter, at least one of the second conductive lines is removed, thereby forming an opened portion. A sacrificial material is filled into the opened portion and a first hardmask layer is provided. The first hardmask layer is patterned so as to form a pattern comprising lines and spaces, so that portions of the sacrificial material are uncovered. Thereafter, the uncovered portions of the sacrificial material are selectively etched, thereby forming contact openings. Finally, a conductive material is filled into the contact openings and a plurality of third conductive lines connected with the contact openings is provided.

A method of forming a semiconductor device includes patterning a layer stack to form single conductive lines and single landing pads. Patterning of the layer stack includes two lithographic exposures using a set of two different photomasks. The landing pads are arranged at on side of an array region defined by a plurality of conductive lines. A set of photomasks used in the method of forming a semiconductor device includes a first photomask including patterns corresponding to the conductive lines and a second photomask including patterns corresponding to the landing pads. A semiconductor device includes conductive lines and landing pads connected with corresponding ones of said conductive lines wherein the landing pads are arranged in a staggered fashion at one side of an array region defined by a plurality of conductive lines.
