Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for fabricating a semiconductor device including providing a photomask including an opaque layer on a mask substrate and surrounding a translucent layer on the mask substrate, wherein the translucent layer includes a mask opening of contact portion which exposes a portion of the mask substrate; providing a stack structure including an etch stop layer on a bottom conductive layer and a first inter-dielectric layer on the etch stop layer, and forming a pre-process mask layer on the stack structure; patterning the pre-process mask layer using the photomask to form a patterned mask layer including a mask region corresponding to the opaque layer, a region of body portion corresponding to the translucent layer, and a hole of contact portion corresponding to the mask opening of contact portion.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for fabricating a photomask. The method includes providing a mask substrate; forming an opaque layer on the mask substrate; pattern-writing the opaque layer to form a mask opening of trench feature in the opaque layer and expose the mask substrate; forming a translucent layer in the mask opening of trench feature to cover the mask substrate; and pattern-writing the translucent layer to form a mask opening of via feature to expose a portion of the mask substrate.

Abstract: A method for generating and outputting a message is implemented using an electronic device the stores a computer program product and a text database. The text database includes a main message template, a template text that includes a placeholder, and a word group that includes a plurality of preset words for replacing the placeholder. The method includes: in response to receipt of a command for execution of the computer program product, displaying an editing interface including the main message template; in response to receipt of user operation of a selection of the main message template, displaying the template text; in response to receipt of user operation of a selection of one of the preset words via the user interface, generating an edited text by replacing the placeholder with the one of the preset words in the template text; and outputting the edited text as a message.

Abstract: A semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same are provided. The semiconductor device includes a substrate, a first pattern and a second pattern. The first pattern is disposed on the substrate. The first pattern includes a first segment and a second segment, each of which extends along a first direction. The second pattern is disposed on the first pattern. The second pattern includes a first part extending along a second direction different from the first direction. The first part of the second pattern overlaps the first segment and the second segment along a third direction different from the first direction and the second direction. The first pattern and the second pattern are associated with an overlay error.
