摘要: An example IC device formed using trim patterning as described herein may include a support structure, a first elongated structure (e.g., a first fin or nanoribbon) and a second elongated structure (e.g., a second fin or nanoribbon), proximate to an end of the first elongated structure. An angle between a projection of the first elongated structure on the support structure and an edge of the support structure may be between about 5 and 45 degrees, while an angle between a projection of the second elongated structure on the support structure and the edge of the support structure may be less than about 15 degrees.

摘要: Described herein is mask design and modeling for a set of masks to be successively imaged to print a composite pattern on a substrate, such as a semiconductor wafer. Further described herein is a method of double patterning a substrate with the set of masks. Also described herein is a method of correcting a drawn pattern of one of the mask levels based on a predicted pattern contour of the other of the mask levels. Also described herein is a method of modeling a resist profile contour for a mask level in which photoresist is applied onto a inhomogeneous substrate, as well as method of predicting a resist profile of a Boolean operation of two masks.

摘要: A correction for photolithography masks used in semiconductor and micro electromechanical systems is described. The correction is based on process windows. In one example, the invention includes evaluating a segment of an idealized photolithography mask at a plurality of different possible process variable values to estimate a corresponding plurality of different photoresist edge positions, comparing the estimated edge positions to a minimum critical dimension, and moving the segment on the idealized photolithography mask if the estimated edge positions do not satisfy the minimum critical dimension.
