Smooth Critical Dimension Compensation Across Photomask Transmittance Discontinuities Enabled by Selective and Direct Laser Patterning Inside Mask.

A selective laser patterning technique applied inside photomasks as a practical method to mitigate critical-dimension non-uniformity caused by overexposure in large-area lithography systems with segmented illumination was investigated. The geometric…
