Abstract

A system and method that includes receiving a layout of an integrated circuit (IC) device. A template library is provided having a plurality of parameterized shape elements. A curvilinear feature of layout is classified by selecting at least one of the parameterized shape elements that defines the curvilinear feature. A template index is associated with the layout is formed that includes the selected parameterized shape element. The template index and the layout can be delivered to a mask writer, which uses the template index and the layout to fabricate a pattern on a photomask.
