Abstract: Various embodiments of the present application are directed towards a control gate layout to improve an etch process window for word lines. In some embodiments, an integrated chip comprises a memory array, an erase gate, a word line, and a control gate. The memory array comprises a plurality of cells in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns. The erase gate and the word line are elongated in parallel along a row of the memory array. The control gate is elongated along the row and is between and borders the erase gate and the word line. Further, the control gate has a pad region protruding towards the erase gate and the word line. Because the pad region protrudes towards the erase gate and the word line, a width of the pad region is spread between word-line and erase-gate sides of the control gate.

Abstract: A method performed by a computer processing system includes receiving a design pattern for an integrated circuit, applying a function to the design pattern to generate a model contour, generating a plurality of Optical Proximity Correction (OPC) target points along the model contour, adjusting the design pattern to create an adjusted pattern, and performing a simulation on the adjusted pattern to create a simulated contour.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes an OPC method of preparing data for forming a mask. The method includes setting a plurality of dissection points at the main feature and further includes setting a target point at the main feature. The method includes arranging the two dissection points crossing the main feature symmetrically each other. The method includes separating two adjacent dissection points at one side of the main feature by a maximum resolution of the mask writer. The method includes dividing the main feature into a plurality of segments using the dissection points. The method includes performing an OPC convergence simulation to a target point. The method includes correcting the segments belonging to an ambit of the target point and further includes correcting the segment shared by two ambits.
