Abstract

本发明公开了一种OPC热点修复方法,包括以下步骤:S1:提供一待修复层,识别待修复层中的热点区域;S2:定义参考方向,参考方向为横向或纵向;S3:将热点区域外延扩展得到标准矩形;放大标准矩形得到与待修复层的图形相交的相交矩形;S4:判断热点区域类型,根据热点区域的类型从待修复边中选边进行修复;S5:识别修复后的待修复层,若热点区域消除,输出修复后的待修复层;若热点区域存在,重复S3‑S4直至热点区域清除,输出修复后的待修复层。选择特定边缘作为修复对象,减少光学扰动并降低引入新热点的风险,提高修复精准度;自动针对性选边,降低冗余计算负荷以及用户判断复杂度,提升热点修复效率,实现热点自动化修复。
