ABSTRACT:
According to mask layout data created for a particular factory facility, transistors constituting a semiconductor device are classified into multiple groups depending on the gate length. Thereafter, the concentration of impurity introduced into a channel layer is set for each group, and thereby the gate length-threshold characteristics of a transistor are controlled. An overlapping area of a gate electrode and an element region of a certain group is extracted from mask layout data. The overlapping area is expanded to determine the shape of a mask used in injecting impurity in a channel layer. The data on the mask shape is then added to the mask layout data.
