ABSTRACT:
Focus and exposure parameters may be controlled in a lithographic process for manufacturing microelectronics by creating a complementary tone pattern of shapes and spaces in a resist film on a substrate. Corresponding dimensions of the resist shape and space are measured and the adequacy of focus or exposure dose are determined as a function of the measured dimensions. Etching parameters may also be controlled by creating a complementary tone pattern of etched shapes and spaces on a substrate. Corresponding dimensions of the etched shape and space are measured and the adequacy of etching parameters are determined as a function of the measured dimensions.
