Mentor, a Siemens business, will focus on its latest innovations for EUV and OPC technologies during SPIE Advanced Lithography 2018. SPIE is taking place from February 25 to March 1 at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose.

The Mentor booth (#222) will focus on these areas in particular:

EUV readiness

  • SRAF requirements, relevance, and impact on EUV lithography for next-generation processes beyond the 7nm node
  • Model-based hyper-NA anamorphic EUV OPC
  • The impact of aberrations in EUV lithography: metal to via edge placement control

 OPC approaches for memory applications and flows

  • Model-based cell-array OPC for improving the productivity of memory fabrication
  • The application of model-assisted template extraction techniques to contact hole patterns in high-end flash memory device fabrication

Mentor’s participation across the SPIE technical conference is also extensive. In addition to the events listed below, you can also find out more about the company’s activities at its dedicated SPIE landing page.
