Abstract

PURPOSE:To efficiently draw a plurality of types of patterns in a short drawing time by drawing the patterns while synthesizing data of the patterns of plural types. CONSTITUTION:Pattern data 1 are converted at drawing time, and ON and OFF bit signals adapted for controlling an electron beam ON or OFF at a high speed are stored in a pattern memory 5. The memory 5 has OR function for synthesizing data 1A-1C of plural types. A full pattern is drawn as the sequence of respective chips in one drawing operation while synthesizing the data 1A-1C of different types at the drawing time. In this manner, even when the pattern of plural types are drawn on one mask, it can be drawn efficiently at a high speed in a short time, thereby improving the utility efficiency of the apparatus.

Furthermore, with a conventional electron beam lithography system, one full writing process is performed on a mask for each chip with a pattern of 1 tV of one type, and then the writing is performed on a mask for each chip with a purple pattern of a different type. Thk and Ln le, so for example, if there are 3 different patterns of 3 products, rX 3 drawing operation sounds 1
It is necessary to perform this process separately for each mask, which means that the drawing time will be approximately tripled. As a result, there is a problem that the drawing time is longer than that of a single type, and the amount of equipment utilization is reduced.
