Abstract
In a method of extracting parameters of a diffusion model from object parameters to be used in a process simulation of a semiconductor manufacturing process, classifying the object parameters into a first through an N-th (N being a natural integer not smaller than ) groups, the first group being used for classifying thereinto the most fundamental physical and least model-dependent parameters, the N-th group being used for classifying thereinto the least fundamental physical and most model-dependent parameters, and extracting successively the classified parameters in the first through the N-th groups in the order from the first to the N-th group.
