摘要： The invention provides a method of performing process window compliant corrections of a design layout. The invention includes an operator performing the following steps: (1) simulating Develop Inspect Critical Dimension (DI CD) at best exposure conditions using the provided original layout pattern; (2) simulating DI CD at predefined boundary exposure conditions using the provided original layout pattern; (3) if the DI CD from step (1) meets the target DI CD definition, and the DI CD from step (2) meets process window specifications, convergence takes place; and (4) modifying the layout pattern and repeating steps (2) through (3) until DI CD from step (2) reaches the specification limit if any portion of step (3) is not achieved.

摘要： The present invention provides methods and apparatus for accomplishing a phase shift lithography process using a blocker to block zero order light to improve image quality for phase shift lithography systems and methodologies. A maskless lithography system is provided. The lithography system provided uses a phase shift pattern generator which projects a phase shift image pattern along an optical path onto a photoimageable layer of a substrate in order to facilitate pattern transfer. A blocking element is interposed in the optical path to block zero order light in the image pattern, thereby improving image quality.

摘要： The present invention provides an optimized direct write lithography system using optical mirrors. That is, a maskless lithography system is provided. The maskless direct-write lithography system provided uses an array of mirrors configured to operate in a tilting mode, a piston-displacement mode, or both in combination. The controlled mirror array is used as a substitute for the traditional chrome on glass masks. In order to avoid constraining the system to forming edges of patterns aligned with the array of mirrors, gray-scale techniques are used for subpixel feature placement. The direct-writing of a pattern portion may rely on a single mirror mode or a combination of modes.

摘要： A phase shift mask which includes an etched quartz region that provides a 180 degree phase shift, and an attenuated film which provides a 0 (or 360) degree phase shift. The phase shift mask provides performance comparable to CPL, while at the same time, avoiding the problems and manufacturability issues associated with EDA. The phase shift mask has better contrast than CPL, and a process window that is comparable to both CPL and alternating phase shift masks. The phase shift mask that does not require a second critical write, as is the case with CPL, does not need a second mask to eliminate unwanted patterns resulting from phase edges, and does not need a complicated EDA solution (like CPL). Finally, the phase shift mask is simple to manufacture, requiring only a single write step if employed with the back-side exposure technique which is well known in the mask-making industry.
摘要翻译：包括提供180度相移的蚀刻石英区域和提供0（或360度）相移的衰减膜的相移掩模。相移掩码提供与CPL相当的性能，同时避免与EDA相关的问题和可制造性问题。相移掩模具有比CPL更好的对比度，以及与CPL和交替相移掩模相当的处理窗口。与CPL的情况一样，不需要第二次临界写入的相移掩模不需要第二个掩模来消除由相位边缘产生的不必要的图形，并且不需要复杂的EDA解决方案（如CPL）。最后，相位掩模制造简单，如果采用掩模制造行业所熟知的背面曝光技术，则仅需要一个写入步骤。

摘要： The tilt and position of individually controllable element are simultaneously adjusted to allow a greater range of contrasts to be achieved. This can also be used to compensate for cupping of individually controllable elements. Simultaneous adjustment of both the position and tilt of the individually controllable elements can be achieved by two electrodes operable over a range of values.
