A fastener is adapted for assembling a first housing to a second housing. The first housing is provided with a protruding portion and a buckling portion, and the second housing has a first surface, a second surface, and a through hole. The fastener includes a first portion, at least one connecting portion, at least two elastic portions, and a second portion. The first portion movably abuts against the first surface and has a first opening. The connecting portion is accommodated in the through hole. One end of the connecting portion is connected to the first portion. The connecting portion is spaced apart from an inner edge of the second housing by a gap. The two elastic portions inclinedly extend into the first opening. The second portion movably abuts against the second surface and is disposed at the another end of the connecting portion.

A method of verifying a layout pattern comprises separately steps of obtaining a simulated pattern at a lower portion of a film by using a layout pattern as a mask to transfer the layout pattern to the film, and obtaining a simulated pattern at an upper portion of the film by using the layout pattern as a mask to transfer the layout pattern to the film. The layout pattern is verified according to the upper and lower simulated patterns.

Method of verifying a layout pattern

A method of inspecting defect of a mask is provided. In this method, a database for storing a plurality of virtual simulation models is created. The virtual simulation models are determined by a plurality of factors including an optical effect and a chemical effect during the transferring the pattern of a mask to the photoresist layer on a wafer. A mask defect image is acquired. A simulation contour of the mask defect image is generated from at least one virtual simulation model in the database. Next, the acceptability of the mask is determined.
