摘要:
The present disclosure provides integrated circuit methods for target-based dummy insertion. A method includes providing an integrated circuit (IC) design layout, and providing a thermal model for simulating thermal effect on the IC design layout, the thermal model including optical simulation and silicon calibration. The method further includes providing a convolution of the thermal model and the IC design layout to generate a thermal image profile of the IC design layout, defining a thermal target for optimizing thermal uniformity across the thermal image profile, comparing the thermal target and the thermal image profile to determine a difference data, and performing thermal dummy insertion to the IC design layout based on the difference data to provide a target-based IC design layout.

摘要:
An intensity selective exposure photomask, also describes as a gradated photomask, is provided. The photomask includes a first region including a first array of sub-resolution features. The first region blocks a first percentage of the incident radiation. The photomask also includes a second region including a second array of sub-resolution features. The second region blocks a second percentage of the incident radiation different that the first percentage. Each of the features of the first and second array includes an opening disposed in an area of attenuating material.
