Disclosed concepts include a method of, and program product for, optimising an illumination profile of a pattern to be formed in a surface of a substrate relative to a given mask. Steps include mathematically representing resolvable feature(s) from the given mask, generating an interference map representation from the previous step, modifying the interference map representation to maximize intensity corresponding to the resolvable features, and determining assist feature size(s) such that intensity side lobes do not print. |
