Abstract
A methodology will be presented to use a state-of-the art lithographic simulator to simulate 2D mask patterns and to look at the impact of exposure dose, focus, local reticle CD error and aberrations. This methodology will be applied to a few isolated patterns and a few dense(r) patterns with 1 to 3 aspect ratio line segments. Two line-widths will be simulated with the accompanying illumination condition (130nm with annular and 100nm with quadrupole illumination) with 193nm wavelength and the results will be presented in this paper.
