Embodiment 1

[0045] figure 1 The implementation flow of the method for reducing photomask stripes provided by the first embodiment of the present invention is shown, and the details are as follows:

[0046] In S101 , measure the variation curve of the overlapping pattern accuracy of the pixel pattern and the overlapping portion of the scan zone through the photomask inspection board.

[0047] Since the scanning zone and the pixel pattern of the lithography machine equipment show periodic changes, when the overlapping area of ​​the two scanning zones overlaps with the edge of the pixel pattern, the stripes of the photomask will appear in the production, specifically The maximum width of the scanning zone of the lithography equipment is fixed. In the vertical direction of the scanning zone, the energy exposed to the entire photomask also changes periodically. The specific exposure energy cycle of the lithography equipment is as follows: figure 2 As shown, that is, the overlapping area with...

Embodiment 2

[0056] Figure 6 It shows the implementation flowchart of reducing photomask stripes provided by the second embodiment of the present invention, and the details are as follows:

[0057] S601. According to the spot size of the lithography machine equipment and the number of beams, calculate the pattern contraction coefficient of the fringe caused by the energy difference of the beams of each pixel pattern.

[0058] Due to the lithography machine with multiple beams, for the lithography machine with multiple beams, the energy of the beams will be different between the multiple beams. When different beams are finally lithography, the difference in beam energy will cause There are differences in the exposed photomasks, resulting in stripes on the final photomask. Therefore, for multi-beam lithography equipment, calculate the graphics of each pixel pattern due to the difference in beam energy according to the spot size of the lithography equipment and the number of beams. shrinkag...

[0064] Figure 7 A flow chart of realizing the reduction of photomask stripes provided by the third embodiment of the present invention is shown. For the convenience of description, only the parts related to the embodiment of the present invention are shown.

[0065] S701, design and manufacture photomask inspection board;

[0066] Among them, the photomask inspection board is designed with the smallest seam with the highest design capability of photomask manufacturing equipment or flat panel display exposure equipment.

[0067] S702. Perform matrix measurement on the gluing of the photomask or the light intensity in different regions through the photomask inspection board according to the division interval, measure each matrix point, and obtain the deviation of each matrix point.

[0068] The matrix measurement of the whole plate is carried out according to the interval of 5mm-20mm. For example, for 700X800, the window size of the exposure machine is 600X700. According to th...

Abstract

The present invention is applicable to the field of photomask production, and particularly relates to a method and device for reducing photomask stencil stripes. The method includes the following steps: according to the spot size of the photolithography machine equipment, the number of beams calculates the stripes caused by the energy difference of the beams. shrinkage coefficient of the graph; shrink all the vertices in the graph according to the shrinkage coefficient to obtain the shrinkage graph; before performing photolithography on the shrinkage graph according to the shrinkage graph, use the opposite coefficient on the device to perform reverse compensation. The present invention reverses the pattern used in photolithography before the photolithography of the photomask by analyzing the cause of the stripes on the photomask, so that the effect of reverse compensation after photolithography offsets the occurrence of stripes caused by errors, reducing the A situation where streaks appear on a photomask.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of photomask production, and in particular relates to a method and a device for reducing photomask template stripes. Background technique [0002] Flat-panel display display is realized based on the reflection, transmission, or light emission of each pixel. If the intensity of reflection, transmission, or light emission of these pixels is under the same system driving conditions, if the reflection, transmission, or light emission The intensity of the image is inconsistent, and for areas of the same brightness and color, people's eyes will perceive images of different brightness or color. The main reason for these differences is that the original same pixel pattern in the display design, due to errors in various links in the manufacturing process, the size of some pixels on the final product has slight changes. Because the human eye is extremely sensitive to light, eventually the human eye sees blocks or lines that ar...
