TY - GEN AB - One of the critical aspects of semiconductor fabrication is the patterning of multiple design layers onto silicon wafers. Since 180nm processes came online, the semiconductor industry has operated under conditions in which the critical features are smaller than the wavelength of light used during the patterning process. Such sub-wavelength conditions present many challenges because topology, rather than feature width and space, defines the yield characteristics of the devices.
