Abstract

Various implementations of the invention provide for generation of a high transmission phase shift mask layout through inverse lithography techniques. In various implementations of the present invention, a set of mask data having a plurality of pixels is generated. The transmission value associated with each pixel may then be determined through an inverse lithography technique. With various implementations of the invention, the inverse lithography technique identifies an objective function, minimizes the objective function in relation to a simulation of the optical lithographic process, such that the transmission value, which is greater than 6%, may be determined.
