Abstract

Semiconductor Industry of China is attracting much attention. Advanced lithography is a critical technology employed in the semiconductor industry. Study of next generation lithography is very active but less explored in China. In this paper, the advanced lithography activity in IEECAS is presented. The Immersion ArF lithography and extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) are studied for 65 nm node and below by using PROLITH9.0.1, ProData 1.4.2, ProLE3.2.6 and In- house software MicroCruiser3.0 because the simulation of lithography is indispensable tools for lithographic technology development in four important areas: as a research tool, as a development tool, as a manufacturing tool and as a learning tool, that has been used in our research activities. The study is traced from the lithography equipment to 1C design and resolution enhancement technology (RET), such as: phase shift technology, off-axis illumination, immersion (Hyper-NA) technology and polarization technology. The results are significant for co-design of lithography equipment, IC design and manufacture.
