β¦ Synopsis
A very highly sensitive resist is difficult to simulate its resist profile because of its extreme difference of development rate which can be determined from absorbed energy when electron beam is exposed. We developed resist profile simulator named ELlS (Electron-beam Lithography Simulator) that can predict the development profile of a very highly sensitive resist: Hybrid scattering model, Gaussian beam convolution and its superposition were used for Monte Carlo simulation and the ray tracing model for resist development.

Resist profiles in PMMA are simulated for the case of single and triple layer electron beam lithography. Line width variations and edge slopes are compared in two cases. Improvements in line width variation and edge slopes have been shown to occur after proximity exposure correction. Further in the
