ABSTRACT:
A process smooths the edges of rectangles written by an E-beam lithography system to improve critical dimension (CD) control in these shapes in the preparation of X-ray masks. The CD tolerances of X-ray masks are improved without the usual postprocessing costs normally associated with multipass solutions, thereby saving time and money when multipass writing is used in X-ray lithography. Two enhancements are provided to an X-ray mask maker that allow use of the same E-beam drive code for each exposure of a multipass write operation.
