Optimization of OPC Runtime Using Efficient Optical Simulation
Model-Based Optical Proximity Correction (MBOPC) is now found in nearly all resolution enhancement recipes used in leading technology integrated circuit fabrication facilities. This paper presents an automated method that analyzes layouts for different technology nodes that depend on sparse simulations as their MBOPC engine, and reports the optimized number of simulation points that need to be in the
simulation site to get the desired accuracy and optimum runtime performance.
