Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a reticle, the method including preparing a substrate, determining position data of a pattern to be formed on the substrate, and setting a primary exposure condition to form the pattern; performing a primary exposure simulation regarding the substrate based on the position data of the pattern and the primary exposure condition; calculating a primary deformation rate of the substrate, which is generated in the primary exposure simulation; correcting the position data of the pattern based on the primary deformation rate of the substrate to provide a corrected position data of the pattern; and exposing the substrate under the primary exposure condition based on the corrected position data of the pattern.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a first alignment mark trench in a first material layer on a substrate. A first alignment mark via may then be formed by etching a second material layer that is underneath the first material layer, where the first alignment mark via is positioned to communicate with the first alignment mark trench. Then, a trench-via-merged-type first alignment mark may be formed by filling the first alignment mark trench and the first alignment mark via with a light reflection material layer.
