Proceedings ArticleDOI
Implications of triple patterning for 14nm node design and patterning
TL;DR: Major implications of a 14nm logic TPT lithographic solution upon physical design, design rules, mask synthesis/EDA algorithms and their process interactions are studied.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Improving model-based OPC performance for the 65-nm node through calibration set optimization
Kyle Patterson,Yorick Trouiller,Kevin Lucas,Jerorne Belledent,Amandine Borjon,Yves Rody,Christophe Couderc,Frank Sundermann,Jean-Christophe Urbani,Stanislas Baron +9 more
TL;DR: In this study, a new approach to the calibration of a resist model will be proposed based upon the location of calibration structures within the actual resist space over which the resist model is expected to be predictive.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Layout decomposition of self-aligned double patterning for 2D random logic patterning
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed several SADP-aware layout decomposition algorithms and a method of generating lithography-friendly core mask patterns for 2D random logic patterns.

Method and apparatus for determining mask layouts for a spacer-is-dielectric self-aligned double-patterning process
Yonchan Ban,Kevin Lucas +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method for determining mask layouts for printing a design intent on a wafer using a spacer-is-dielectric self-aligned double-patterning process is described.
Patent
Tantalum oxide anti-reflective coating (ARC) integrated with a metallic transistor gate electrode and method of formation
TL;DR: In this article, a tantalum-based anti-reflective coating (ARC) was used to improve the critical dimension (CD) control of the MOS gate during exposure to DUV radiation.
