    • Very high speed circuits are adversely effected by parasitic capacitances and line resistances. At high speeds these values of capacitance and resistance change with frequency. A method of verification of the design of high speed circuits includes a simulation of the effects of these changes in resistance and capacitance which occur at high frequency. There is a logic component and a physical-layout component which are combined to provide a full simulation of the circuit taking into account these effects which occur at very high frequency. The physical-layout component utilizes Maxwell's equations in their entirety without removing the time dependent effects. One embodiment considers only cases defined by the bus protocol, reducing the computational penalty of complete electromagnetic simulation.

    • A electronics system and method are provided which allow engineering changes to be made to a substrate without requiring the addition of fly wires and without requiring relatively large areas of pads for attaching these wires. Each device site is surrounded by a series of engineering change ring patterns. A series of engineering change patterns allow change interconnections between device sites to be made. Fan-in metallizations extend inwardly to the device sites from these change patterns, with a series of vias making surface connections adjacent to the ring patterns. Fan-out metallizations extend from the device site pads to the ring patterns, with a series of vias making surface connections adjacent to the ring patterns. Engineering changes are made by directly writing surface metal deposits to make the appropriate connections between the vias and the ring pattern. The original chip pad connections and the new ring pattern connections can be appropriately isolated by laser deletions, if necessary.

    • Fine alignment of mask and wafer, using Fresnel zone plates is achieved. Light is focused on the wafer by a zone plate in the mask. Light diffracted from a zone plate on the wafer is received by a sensor. The received light is coded (analog or digital) to indicate alignment. For analog coding the wafer zone plate diffracts light to the sensor from an area of the wafer zone plate which is indicative of alignment. For digital coding, the wafer zone plate is digitally encoded as a function of alignment to similarly code the diffracted light. To eliminate ambiguity, the mask zone plate is formed from a plurality of "elements", each of which is itself a Fresnel zone plate. The focal length of the elemental Fresnel zone plate can be related to the mask/wafer separation distance, whereas the focal length of the macro zone plate (made up of a plurality of the elemental zone plates) is related to the distance between mask and light sensor.
    • 实现了使用菲涅耳带片的掩模和晶片的精细对准。 光通过掩模中的区域板聚焦在晶片上。 从晶片上的区域板衍射的光由传感器接收。 接收的光被编码(模拟或数字)以指示对准。 对于模拟编码,晶片区域板从指示对准的晶片区域板的区域将光衍射到传感器。 对于数字编码,晶片区域板作为对准的函数进行数字编码,以类似地对衍射光进行编码。 为了消除歧义,掩模区域板由多个“元件”形成,其中每个“元件”本身都是菲涅尔区域板。 元素菲涅耳带片的焦距可以与掩模/晶片间隔距离相关,而宏观区域板(由多个元素区域板组成)的焦距与掩模和光线之间的距离有关 传感器。

    • Integrated circuit designs are continually shrinking in size. Lithographic processes are used to pattern these designs onto a semiconductor substrate. These processes typically require that the wavelength of exposure used during printing be significantly shorter than the smallest dimension of the elements within the circuit design. When this is not the case, the exposure radiation behaves more like a wave than a particle. Additionally, mask manufacturing, photoresist chemical diffusion and etch effects cause pattern transfer distortions. The result is that circuit elements do not print as designed. To counter this effect the designs themselves can be altered so that the final printed results better match the initial desired design. The process of altering designs in this way is called Lithographic Proximity Correction (LPC). Edge assist shapes and edge biasing features are added to integrated circuit designs by shape manipulation functions to perform one dimensional (1-D) LPC.
    • 集成电路设计的尺寸不断缩小。 使用平版印刷工艺将这些设计图案化成半导体衬底。 这些工艺通常要求印刷期间使用的曝光波长明显短于电路设计中元件的最小尺寸。 当不是这种情况时,曝光辐射的行为比颗粒更像波。 此外,掩模制造,光致抗蚀剂化学扩散和蚀刻效果引起图案转印失真。 结果是电路元件不按照设计打印。 为了抵消这种影响,设计本身可以被改变,使得最终的印刷结果更好地符合初始期望的设计。 以这种方式改变设计的过程称为光刻邻近校正(LPC)。 通过形状操作功能将边缘辅助形状和边缘偏置特征添加到集成电路设计中,以执行一维(1-D)LPC。

    • In electron beam testing systems wherein high energy, high resolution electron beams are used to test lithographic masks, a technique and apparatus are described for discharging electrons which are left on the surface of the mask, and which alter the input trajectory of the electron beam. The materials used in these masks are such that induced photoconductivity and photoemissivity are extremely low and are incapable of providing sufficient electron discharge. A thin, low work function coating is applied over the entire mask surface, the coating being transparent to the radiation which will later be incident upon the mask when it is used in a fabrication process. Due to induced photoemission in the thin coating layer, enough photoemitted electrons will be produced to balance the buildup of electrons from the electron beam, thereby discharging the surface of the mask. The electron beam is a high energy beam, having energies greater than about 5000 eV, and a resolution less than about 1 micrometer.
    • 在其中使用高能量,高分辨率电子束来测试光刻掩模的电子束测试系统中,描述了放置在掩模表面上并且改变电子束的输入轨迹的电子的技术和装置。 这些掩模中使用的材料使得感应的光电导率和光电散率极低,并且不能提供足够的电子放电。 在整个掩模表面上施加薄的低功函数涂层,所述涂层对于在制造过程中使用时将随后入射到掩模上的辐射是透明的。 由于在薄涂层中的诱导光电子发射,将产生足够的光电子以平衡来自电子束的电子的积累,从而排出掩模的表面。 电子束是能量大于约5000eV的能量束,分辨率小于约1微米。
