Abstract
Description
本実施の形態において、1以上の各図形情報を含む領域を分割した2以上の各第一小領域ごとに、図形が含まれる面積に応じた第一密度情報を取得し、事前に第一小領域識別子に対応付けられた第一密度情報の集合を保持しておく。そして、1以上の各図形情報ごとの第一密度情報の集合を用いて、第二小領域ごとの補正量の集合を取得し、第二小領域ごとに、対応する補正量に従った電子ビームの照射量を決定し、当該照射量に従った電子ビームの照射を行う電子ビーム描画装置について説明する。
処理部3は、バイアス量受付部22が受け付けたバイアス量に応じて、図形情報を変更する。かかる処理をバイアス処理と言う。
(2)第一小領域の中に垂直線を含む場合(3)第一小領域の中に斜線を含む場合(4)第一小領域の中に角部を含む場合である。
(1)第一小領域の中に水平線を含む場合
(2)第一小領域の中に垂直線を含む場合
(3)第一小領域の中に斜線をn個含む場合
(4)第一小領域の中にN個の角部を含む場合
なお、第二前処理部32は、上記した方法に限らない。
例えば、補正量取得部34は、取得されたバイアス量を用いて、補正量を取得することは好適である。なお、バイアス量は、例えば、予め格納部1に格納されていても良いし、受付部2が受け付けても良い。
なお、描画部36は、図形情報受付部21が受け付けた1以上の図形情報に対して、バイアス処理を適用し、バイアス済みの図形の情報を得ることは好適である。そして、照射量取得部35は、バイアス済みの図形の情報と、補正量取得部34が取得した2以上の各第二小領域の補正量とを用いて、2以上の各第二小領域の電子ビームの照射量を取得する。具体的には、主に、電子ビームのより狭い範囲での散乱を考慮した補正が行われる。第二小領域の密度情報を使って計算されるのは、通常、影響範囲がmmオーダーのものであるが、描画中にリアルタイムに計算するのは、影響範囲が数十μmや数百nm(場合によっては、10nm程度)の影響範囲である。照射量取得部35は、この現象に対応する予め格納されている演算式に第二小領域の「補正量」を入力し、当該演算式を実行することにより照射量を取得する。次に、描画部36は、照射量取得部35が取得した2以上の第二小領域ごとの照射量に従って、2以上の各第二小領域に電子ビームを照射して、図形の描画を行う。
具体例1は、電子ビーム描画装置Aの前処理の第一の例であり、密度集合(密度マップ)を取得する処理の例である。
具体例2は、電子ビーム描画装置Aの前処理の第一の例であり、各第一小領域の微分情報を取得し、当該微分情報を用いて、密度集合(密度マップ)を取得する処理の例である。
