According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes interconnects extending from a element formation area to the drawing area, and connected with semiconductor elements in the element formation area and connected with contacts in the drawing area. The interconnects are formed based on a pattern of a (n+1)th second sidewall film matching a pattern of a nth (where n is an integer of 1 or more) first sidewall film on a lateral surface of a sacrificial layer. A first dimension matching an interconnect width of the interconnects and an interconnects interval in the element formation area is (k1/2n)×(λ/NA) or less when an exposure wavelength of an exposure device is λ, a numerical aperture of a lens of the exposure device is NA and a process parameter is k1. A second dimension matching an interconnect interval in the drawing area is greater than the first dimension.

Pattern formation simulations are performed based on design layout data subjected to OPC processing with a plurality of process parameters set in process conditions. A worst condition of the process conditions is calculated based on risk points extracted from simulation results. The design layout data or the OPC processing is changed such that when a pattern is formed under the worst condition based on the changed design layout data or the changed OPC processing a number of the risk points or a risk degree of the risk points of the pattern is smaller than the simulation result.

A pattern dimension calculation method according to one embodiment calculates a taper shape of a mask member used as a mask when a circuit pattern is processed in an upper layer of the circuit pattern formed on a substrate. The method calculates an opening angle facing the mask member from a shape prediction position on the circuit pattern on the basis of the taper shape. The method calculates a dimension of the circuit pattern according to the opening angle formed at the shape prediction position.

According to one embodiment, in process simulation, it is verified whether sidewall patterns formed on sidewalls of a core material pattern or a transfer pattern formed by transferring the core material pattern form a closed loop. When it is determined as a result of the verification that the sidewall patterns form a closed loop, the mask pattern is changed. When it is determined as a result of the verification that the sidewall patterns do not form a closed loop, the mask pattern is adopted.
