— Double patterning technology (DPT) is a most likely lithography solution for 32/22nm technology nodes as of 2008 due to the delay of Extreme Ultra Violet lithography. However, ...
We review the implications of subwavelength optical lithography for new tools and ows in the interface between layout design and manufacturability. After discussing the necessity ...
The continual shrinkage of minimum feature size in integrated circuit (IC) fabrication incurs more and more serious distortion in the optical lithography process, generating circu...
The gap between VLSI technology and fabrication technology leads to strong refractive effects in lithography. Consequently, it is a huge challenge to reliably print layout features...
