ABSTRACT:
A simulator of an optical intensity distribution includes a field divider dividing an exposure field on a substrate into a first and second fields, the first field being to be directly exposed to a light incident at the maximum incident angle, the second field being prevented from being directly exposed to the light by a protrusion on the substrate, a first optical intensity calculator calculating an optical intensity of the first field by using a direct incident light component of the light, a second optical intensity calculator calculating an optical intensity of the second field by using a reflected light component of the light reflected from a sidewall of the protrusion, and a projected image simulation engine simulating an optical intensity distribution of a projected image of a mask pattern on the substrate, based on the optical intensities of the first field and the second field.
