SPIE Advanced Lithography 2011 showed few new tools or techniques, but many new materials and integration tricks to extend 193i into double-patterning for IC HVM, while EUV and DSA developments continue according to expert Dr. M. David Levenson of BetaSights.

IMEC has successfully transferred memory variability aware modeling (MemoryVAM), the first EDA tool for statistical memory analysis, to Samsung Electronics. The tool predicts yield loss of embedded SRAMs caused by the process variations of deep-submicron IC technologies. This may be the first proven design-for-manufacturing (DFM) tool to provide statistical analysis across degrees of abstraction from […]
