  • Patent number: 11747721
    Abstract: Provided are a method of forming a mask, the method accurately and quickly restoring an image on the mask to the shape on the mask, and a mask manufacturing method using the method of forming the mask. The method of forming a mask includes obtaining first images by performing rasterization and image correction on shapes on the mask corresponding to first patterns on a wafer, obtaining second images by applying a transformation to the shapes on the mask, performing deep learning based on a transformation relationship between ones of the first images and ones of the second images corresponding to the first images, and forming a target shape on the mask corresponding to a target pattern on the wafer, based on the deep learning. The mask is manufactured based on the target shape on the mask.

  • Publication number: 20230176470
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of generating a curvilinear sub-resolution assist feature (SRAF) capable of easily generating a curvilinear SRAF satisfying mask rule check (MRC) conditions, an MRC verification method for easy MRC verification of the curvilinear SRAF, and a mask manufacturing method including the method of generating the same. The method of generating a curvilinear SRAF includes generating a curve axis for generating the curvilinear SRAF corresponding to a main feature, generating curve points on a line of the curve axis, and generating the curvilinear SRAF based on the curve points.

  • Publication number: 20230125680
    Abstract: Disclosed is an operating method of an electronic device for manufacture of a semiconductor device. The operating method includes receiving a layout image of the semiconductor device, generating an intermediate image by generating assist features based on main features of the layout image, evaluating a process result by performing simulation based on the intermediate image, and correcting the intermediate image by correcting shapes of the main features and/or the assist features of the intermediate image based on the process result.
