    摘要: Techniques are provided for efficient lithography processing and wafer layout. In particular, the techniques can be used to reduce the number of sacrificial exposures along the wafer perimeter region. In one example embodiment, an exposure system reticle is configured with both a normal area (die yielding area) and a dumification area (non-yielding area at wafer perimeter), thereby allowing for lithographic processing in the non-yielding areas sufficient to facilitate successful processing in the adjacent die yielding areas, but without requiring additional sacrificial exposures. This reduction in sacrificial exposures translates to a significant improvement in fab capacity. The techniques can be implemented, for example, on any number of lithography tools having an adjustable reticle or reticle blind capability and in the context of any technology nodes, such as 95 nm and smaller. The lithography tool may produce wafers at a faster rate.

    摘要: Electron emission structures formed using standard semiconductor processes on a substrate first prepared with a topographical feature are disclosed. At least one layer of a first material is concurrently deposited on the substrate and etched from the substrate to form an atomically sharp feature. An at least one layer of a second material is deposited over the atomically sharp feature. A conductive layer is deposited over the at least one layer of the second material. A selected area of material is removed from the conductive layer and the at least one layer of second material to expose the atomically sharp feature. Finally, electrical connectivity is provided to elements of the electron emission structure.
