ABSTRACT:
A method for electron beam writing of microcircuit patterns utilizing the combination of spiral scan techniques and variable beam sizes. The circuit patterns are outlined in a spiral scan motion using a small size beam in order to ensure good edge sharpness and accuracy. The beam is then increased in size to fill-in the inside area of the pattern. Increasing the beam size increases the beam current and, correspondingly, the exposure speed and system throughput.
