Abstract

The invention provides a method for generating a mask pattern model and a method for optimizing a mask pattern. The method for generating the mask pattern model comprises the following steps: S11, calculating an intrinsic function group under a set photoetching process condition, wherein the intrinsic function group comprises n intrinsic functions; s12, obtaining an imaging signal value set at each defined position of each test pattern, wherein the imaging signal value set comprises n imaging signal values, and each imaging signal value is calculated based on the convolution value of the intrinsic function and the optical transmission function in the intrinsic function group; S13, taking the imaging signal value set at each defined position of each test pattern as the input of a neural network model; S14, calculating a continuous tone mask pattern of each test pattern, and taking the continuous tone mask pattern as an output training target of the neural network model; S15, training parameters of the neural network model; S16, taking the trained neural network model as a mask pattern model. According to the method provided by the invention, an optimal mask pattern can be obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a method for generating a mask pattern model and a method for optimizing the mask pattern. Background technique [0002] In order to achieve the improvement of semiconductor chip performance, the reduction of chip power consumption and the reduction of area, the feature size on the semiconductor chip has been shrinking for decades. In order to achieve the continuous reduction of feature size, the semiconductor industry has made great progress in both lithography machine technology and resolution enhancement technology. However, due to the slow progress of EUV technology, computational lithography plays an increasingly important role in current immersion-based lithography machine technology. To maintain the lithography process window, more complex computational lithography solutions are required. This mask optimization algorithm can be realized not only in the actual spac...
