ABSTRACT:
Provided are a method and apparatus for designing a fine pattern that can be entirely transferred onto an object. The method includes reading the original data of a fine pattern for exposure. The fine pattern is divided into a first pattern not requiring revision and a second pattern requiring revision. The fine pattern is revised by forming an auxiliary pattern maintaining a first distance D1from the second pattern. A fine pattern to be transferred onto a target object is estimated by running an emulation program including a first auxiliary pattern and a second auxiliary pattern. The estimated fine pattern is compared to the original data of the fine pattern for exposure, and the revised fine pattern is designated as a final fine pattern if there is no difference between the estimated fine pattern and the original data of the fine pattern for exposure.
