MASK ERROR COMPENSATION BY OPTICAL MODELING CALIBRATION |
摘要 |
Methodologies and an apparatus for enabling OPC models to account for errors in the mask are disclosed. Embodiments include: determining a patterning layer of a circuit design; estimating a penetration ratio indicating a mask corner rounding error of a fabricated mask for forming the patterning layer in a fabricated circuit; and determining, by a processor, a compensation metric for optical proximity correction of the circuit design based on the penetration ratio. |
