1 Importance of Layer-to-Layer ignment Exampe: meta ine to contact hoe margina contact no contact! Exampe of Design Rue: If the minimum feature size is 2, then the safety margin for overay error is. safety margin to aow for misaignment Design Rues are needed: Interface between designer & process engineer Guideines for designing masks

2 IC RESISTOR MSK LYOUTS REGISTRTION OF ECH MSK Registration of mask patterns is critica show separate ayouts to avoid ambiguity Oxide mask (dark fied) Contact mask (dark fied) mask (cear fied) B B registration shows overay of patterns scae in m for B-B cut Registration of one mask to the next (aso caed aignment and overay ) is a crucia aspect of ithography

3 Same Layout but with misregistration (misaignment) B perfect registration scae in m for B-B cut B B Contact mask misaigned by 2 m scae in m for B-B cut B Lets ook again at cross-section - to understand the consequence of this misaignment. Note contact mask 2 m

4 Layout with no misregistration (misaignment) B B perfect registration STEP 7 p-type ayer

5 Layout with misregistration (misaignment) B B Contact mask misaigned by 2 m This resistor has an open circuit!! scae in m for B-B cut STEP 7 p-type ayer Thus we need safety margins in ayout which take into account the possibe toerances in fabrication. Each process has a set of design rues which specify the safety margins.
