    摘要: Lithography masks and methods of manufacture thereof are disclosed. A preferred embodiment comprises a method of manufacturing a lithography mask. The method includes providing a substrate, forming a first pattern in a first region of the substrate, and forming a second pattern in a second region of the substrate, the second pattern comprising patterns for features oriented differently than patterns for features of the first pattern. The method includes affecting a polarization rotation of light differently in the first region than in the second region of the substrate.

    摘要: This disclosure includes a SRAF layout that minimizes the number of SRAFs required to reliably print contact shapes. A method is provided that reduces the number of necessary SRAF features on a mask, placing at least two elongated SRAF shapes on the mask such that the elongated SRAF shapes extend past at least one edge of a mask shape in at least one direction.

    摘要: The method of dynamically monitoring a reticle includes preventively macro monitoring and defect inspecting with regard to mechanical loading, including particle deposits or electrostatically induced damage, and energy load, including the associated changes to the reticle material and surface characteristics. Different surface distributions of the absorber layer as well as characteristics of the exposure system, such as N2 purging of the projection lens/reticle area in order to reduce contamination and recrystallization on optically active surfaces are considered.
