A
layout modification method, a storage medium and a terminal, the method comprising: providing an initial
layout, including a plurality of first type patterns and a plurality of second type patterns, the first type patterns being parallel to a first direction, the second type patterns penetrating the first type patterns along a second direction, the initial
layout including a plurality of pattern areas and non-pattern areas, the first type patterns being located in the pattern areas; allocating the plurality of first type patterns to at least one first layout, the first layout including a plurality of first patterns; obtaining a target pattern area from the initial layout or the first layout, the target pattern area including a preset number of first type patterns or a preset number of first patterns; generating a preset number of sacrifice patterns and
cutting patterns on both sides of the target pattern area along the second direction, the sacrifice patterns being parallel to the first type patterns, the
cutting patterns being parallel to the first type patterns, the sacrifice patterns being located in the area range of the
cutting patterns; and allocating the cutting patterns and the plurality of second type patterns to at least one second layout. The layout modification method has good uniformity of developed
pattern size.
