Abstract

An apparatus including a memory storing instructions and a processor executing the instructions to perform a method including: performing error processing of an initial design file layout; detecting a tip-to-tip (T2T) structure design violation at a design cell boundary for a metal layer above (Ma) a via (Vx) at a tip of the Ma for the initial design file layout for a semiconductor structure based on a library of pattern rules; retargeting the Vx for generating a resulting design file layout of the semiconductor structure; and generating a physical semiconductor structure based on the resulting design file layout of the semiconductor structure.
