Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable mediums for configuring a lithography tool to manufacture a semiconductor device. The method includes selecting a first variable, selecting a second variable, selecting at least one response variable that is a function of the first variable and second variable, determining a measurement uncertainty for each response variable, determining, based on a measurement of the response variable, and the measurement uncertainty for the response variable, a plurality of probabilities representing a plurality of indications of whether a plurality of points associated with a lithography process meet a specification requirement for each response variable, wherein the plurality of probabilities represent a process window, and configuring, based on the process window, a lithography tool to manufacture a semiconductor device.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving measured linescan information describing a pattern structure of a feature, applying the received measured linescan information to an inverse linescan model that relates measured linescan information to feature geometry information, and identifying, based at least in part on the applying the received measured linescan model to the inverse linescan model, feature geometry information that describes a feature that would produce a linescan corresponding to the received measured linescan information. The method also includes determining, at least in part using the inverse linescan model, feature edge positions of the identified feature, analyzing the feature edge positions to determine errors in the manufacture of the pattern structure, and controlling a lithography tool based on the analysis of the feature edge positions.
