Embodiment 1

[0032] Figure 2B to Figure 2D These are the size and focal length diagrams of contact holes of different chain types after exposure through the 2 / 3 ring filter of the off-axis illumination system. Figure 2B There are multiple hole patterns on the photomask, and the multiple hole patterns are connected by a line pattern with a line width of 200 nm. Figure 2C There are multiple hole patterns on the photomask, and the multiple hole patterns are connected by a line pattern with a line width of 240 nm. Figure 2D There are multiple hole patterns on the photomask, and the multiple hole patterns are connected by a line pattern with a line width of 280 nm.

[0033] refer to Figure 2B to Figure 2D , as the line width of the linear pattern connecting multiple contact holes in series increases, the focal depth of the contact holes formed by the exposure machine also increases. In the first embodiment, because the line width of the line pattern connecting the plurality of contact h...

Abstract

An assistant design method for contact holes photoetching includes the following steps: determining exposing wavelength of an exposure light source, determining the smallest dephasing line width by interference degree of the exposure, process technology integral parameter and numerical diaphragm, recovering the above mentioned smallest dephasing line width into the smallest line width on light mask in reduced proportion and using linear pattern smaller than the smallest line width to connect multiple contact holes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an auxiliary design method for contact hole photolithography; in particular, it relates to forming a contact hole with a better focal length by using the auxiliary design method. Background technique [0002] In a general semiconductor manufacturing process, a hole pattern is used to form a contact hole (C / H for short) on a semiconductor layer through exposure and development. [0003] Figure 1A is a schematic diagram showing the contact hole when exposed through the 2 / 3 ring filter of the off-axis illumination system; Figure 1B It is a schematic diagram showing the size and focal length of the contact hole after exposure through the 2 / 3 ring filter of the off-axis illumination system. Compare Figure 1A and Figure 1B , when the size of the contact hole is about 105nm±10nm, the focal depth of the contact hole is about 0.2μm. [0004] However, as the resolution of exposure lithography enters the sub...
