    Abstract: Methods for etching devices used for lithography. In one aspect, a method includes etching, in a single etch, a first region and a second region on a substrate. The first region is to attenuate an intensity of the zero diffraction order of a radiation for patterning of a microelectronic device to a first extent. The second region is to attenuate the intensity of the zero diffraction order of the radiation to a second extent. The second extent being sufficiently different from the first extent to improve a quality of the patterned microelectronic device.

    Abstract: A reflective mask is described having non-reflective and reflective regions, where the reflective regions are reflective of a first light that has an inspection wavelength and are reflective of a second light that has a semiconductor processing exposure wavelength. The non-reflective regions are less reflective of the first light and the second light than the reflective regions in order to create: 1) a first image with a contrast greater than 0.210 and that is formed by reflecting the first light off of the reflective mask; and 2) a second image with a contrast greater than 0.750 and that is formed by reflecting the second light off of the reflective mask.

    Abstract: A method of calibrating a simulation model of a photolithography process. The method includes the steps of defining a set of input data; defining a simulation model having model parameters which affect the simulation result produced by the simulation model; performing a first stage calibration process in which the model parameters and alignment parameters are adjusted such that the simulation result is within a first predefined error tolerance; and performing a second stage calibration process in which the alignment parameters are fixed and the model parameters are adjusted such that the simulation result is within a second predefined error tolerance.
