MARKER LAYER TO FACILITATE MASK BUILD WITH INTERACTIVE LAYERS

摘要

A mask build system includes a program for configuring mask layers and a fabrication site for compiling configured mask layers. The system includes at least one database configured by a system processor, the database comprising drawn layers for fabricating reticles of a semiconductor device; and a marker layer configured to define layer dependent features, the marker layer handed off with that part of the at least one database which will support subsequent layers of the database without altering flow of mask build at the fabrication site.
