  • Publication number: 20240345468
    Abstract: A blank mask including a transparent substrate, a phase shift film disposed on the transparent substrate, and a light shielding film disposed on the phase shift film. The phase shift film has XRD maximum peak at 20 of 15° to 30° when normal mode XRD analysis is performed on an upper surface of the phase shift film. The transparent substrate has XRD maximum peak at 20 of 15° to 30° when performing normal mode XRD analysis on a lower surface of the transparent substrate. AI1 value of the blank mask expressed by below Equation is 0.9 to 1.1. AI ? 1 = XM ? 1 XQ ? 1 XM1 is the maximum value of the measured X-ray intensity when the normal mode XRD analysis is performed on upper surface of the phase shift film.

  • Publication number: 20240321338
    Abstract: A training method of a memory device adjusting an eye window of a data signal in response to a duty cycle adjuster (DCA) includes performing a first training operation that selects a first DCA code corresponding to a first internal clock signal having a phase difference of 180° relative to a reference internal clock signal, and performing a second training operation that selects a second DCA code and a third DCA code respectively corresponding to a second internal clock signal and a third internal clock signal having a phase difference of 90° and 270° relative to reference internal clock signal. In the first training operation, the eye window size of the data signal is measured in units of two unit intervals, and in the second training operation, the eye window size of the data signal is measured in units of one unit interval.
