Pattern correcting method of mask for manufacturing a semiconductor device

摘要

A method of correcting a mask pattern for manufacturing a semiconductor device is disclosed. The method includes extracting a corner portion of a transistor portion. A distance from the corner portion to a line portion is extracted. A distance where the line portion does not overlap a rounding of the corner portion generated after a wafer process is obtained. A correction rule is made for a correction whether the corner portion is notched or not from the obtained distance. A corresponding relationship between the distance and an intersection part is obtained and a correction is made based on the correction rule to the corner portion.
