Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of chip manufacturing, and provides an optical proximity correction mask method based on adaptive hybrid conjugate gradient descent. The method provides a self-adjustable hybrid conjugate gradient descent strategy. According to the invention, the step length and the direction of gradient search are automatically adjusted by guiding a conjugate gradient method which is specifically adopted in a next cycle correction process by utilizing experience of a previous cycle, so that an optimal solution is better searched. The solution space is larger, and the newly designed optimization function can enable the quality of the generated mask to be better; a photoetching acceleration model is realized, and the algorithm efficiency is high; and the generated mask can more effectively resist process deviation. The chip manufacturing mask is optimized, so that the pattern after photoetching has higher fidelity.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the field of chip fabric, and is directed to an optical adjacent correction mask method based on adaptive mixed conjugate gradient decreases. Background technique [0002] As the characteristic size of the integrated circuit process is constantly decreasing, existing manufacturing technology faces great challenges. Since the graphical size of the circuit is similar to the light source wavelength used by the lithographic process, the interference effect will inevitably produce, resulting in a photolithography graphic distortion, which in turn affects the integrated circuit manufacturing capacity. The application of resolution enhancement technology is a key step in improving production capacity. Optical Near Correction is the most core resolution enhancement technology. During the optical approach correction, the graphics on the mask to be processed will be adjusted to achieve the effect of compensating for optical scattering...
