Abstract:As layout schemes become increasingly complex for advanced technology nodes, challenges such as large edge placement error (EPE) and poor OPC convergence in optical proximity correction (OPC) can lead to significant yield losses. To overcome these issues, widely adopted strategies include layout re-targeting before OPC and mask feature modification after OPC for mask synthesis. The former entails adjusting the after-development inspection critical dimension (ADI CD) target of the original design layout. Howeve… Show more
