Problems solved by technology

The biggest defect of the existing technology is that it can only be repaired after the defect appears, and it cannot be repaired in advance
If this type of defect does not appear once, write a recipe to fix it, which will greatly increase the length and complexity of the recipe, reduce the readability of the recipe, and waste a lot of time for engineers

[0050] The present invention provides a first embodiment of a model-based optical proximity effect correction method, which includes the following steps:

[0051] S1, based on the model, the graphic simulation on the current mask plate is formed into a photoresist profile;

[0052] S2, determining the edge position error according to the relationship between the photoresist profile and the corresponding edge position of the target pattern;

[0053] S3, screening out the opposite sides that meet the preset correction conditions;

[0054] S4, calculate and screen out the pre-movement and actual movement of the opposite side;

[0055] S5, correcting the actual movement amount for the screened opposite sides respectively;

[0056] S6, repeating the above steps S2-S5 until there is no opposite edge satisfying the preset correction condition in the layout.

[0060] The present invention provides a second embodiment of a model-based optical proximity effect correction method, which includes the following steps:

[0061] S1, based on the model, the graphic simulation on the current mask plate is formed into a photoresist profile;

[0062] S2. Determine the edge position error according to the positional relationship between the photoresist profile and the corresponding edge of the target pattern; determine the edge position error of the photoresist profile inside the target pattern as negative, and judge the edge position error of the photoresist profile outside the target pattern is positive; wherein, the edge position error is equal to the distance between the target pattern and the photoresist profile;

[0063] S3, screening out opposite sides whose edge position errors in the graph to be corrected are positive and negative respectively;

[0064] S4, calculate and screen out the pre-movement and actual movement of the opposite s...

Abstract

The invention discloses a model-based optical proximity effect correction method, comprising: based on the model, simulating the graphics on the current mask plate to form a photoresist profile; judging the edge position error according to the position relationship between the photoresist profile and the corresponding side of the target graphic ;Screen out the opposite sides that meet the preset correction conditions; calculate the pre-move and actual movement of the screened out opposite sides; perform the correction of the actual movement for the screened out opposite sides; repeat the above steps until no one in the layout satisfies the preset The opposite side of the correction condition. The invention also discloses a model-based optical proximity effect correction system. The optical proximity effect correction method / correction system of the present invention can reduce the risk of product defects by appropriately increasing the amount of movement for one side of the opposite side that will move in the same direction in advance when performing the same iteration of optical proximity effect correction. Improve the qualification rate of products.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductors, in particular to a model-based optical proximity effect correction method. The invention also relates to a model-based optical proximity effect correction system. Background technique [0002] Optical proximity correction (OPC) is a lithography enhancement technology. Optical proximity correction (OPC) is mainly used in the production process of semiconductor chips to ensure that the edges of the graphics designed in the production process are completely etched. Irregularities in these projected images, such as narrower or wider line widths than designed, can be compensated for by changing the reticle. Other distortions, such as rounded corners, are limited by the resolution of the optical tool and are more difficult to compensate. These distortions, if not corrected, can significantly alter the electrical performance of the produced circuit. Optical proximity correction corrects these errors by ...
