A semiconductor device includes: a plurality of line features including at least one real feature which includes a gate electrode portion, and at least one dummy feature. Two of multiple ones of the dummy feature, and at least one of the line features interposed between the two dummy features and including the at least one real feature form parallel running line features which are evenly spaced. The parallel running line features have an identical width, and line end portions of the parallel running line features are substantially flush. Line end portion uniformization dummy features are formed on extensions of the line end portions of the parallel running line features. The line end portion uniformization dummy features include a plurality of linear features each having a same width as each of the line features and spaced at intervals equal to an interval between each adjacent pair of the line features.

A semiconductor device includes a circuit portion including at least one real feature, and a plurality of dummy feature groups each including a plurality of dummy features spaced apart from each other by a first distance. The plurality of dummy feature groups are spaced apart from each other by a second distance larger than the first distance, and the circuit portion and the plurality of dummy feature groups are spaced apart from each other by the second distance.

A semiconductor apparatus and method for upgrading uniformity of critical dimension by compensating the flare effect at wafer edge are disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, the invention uses an exposure plate mounted on tilt pincettes which can protrude and retract from a wafer stage of a stepper to eliminate the alteration of uniformity of critical dimension at wafer edge. The exposure plate uses the tilt pincettes to tilt along with a wafer so as to keep planar with the wafer.

A photomask has a plurality of transparent regions defined in an opaque region and classified into first and second groups. Each of the transparent regions belonging to one of the first and second groups is provided with a phase shifter, so that the phase of light transmitted through the transparent region belonging to the first group becomes different from the phase of light transmitted through the transparent region belonging to the second group. The photomask includes: a pair of first transparent regions belonging to the first group and including linear portions disposed in parallel, a virtual straight line interconnecting one ends of the first transparent regions intersecting at a right angle with the extension direction of the linear portions; and a second transparent region belonging to the second group and disposed at the center between, and in parallel to, the linear portions of the pair of first transparent regions, the second transparent region including a linear thickportion and a linear thin portion, the linear thin portion being disposed in an area between the pair of first transparent regions and continuously coupled to the linear thick portion, and a connection portion between the thick and thin portions being indented from the virtual straight line toward the area between the pair of first transparent regions.

A pattern exposing method forms a predetermined resist pattern on a substrate by exposing a first resist layer which is formed on the substrate using a first reticle which includes a first pattern for exposing a first corresponding pattern on the first resist layer by use of a phase shift of light transmitted through the first reticle, developing the exposed first resist layer, exposing a second resist layer which is formed on the entire surface of the substrate, including a top of the first resist layer, using a second reticle which has a second pattern for exposing a second corresponding pattern on the second resist layer by use of light transmitted through the second reticle, where the second corresponding pattern overlaps at least a part of the first corresponding pattern, and developing the second resist layer so that a part of the first corresponding pattern is removed by the second corresponding pattern and the predetermined resist pattern is formed.
