Abstract :
An automatic dose optimization system for electron beam lithography is newly developed to get a specified resist cross-sectional profiles. The system takes into account not only the proximity effect but also resist development process. It is experimentally demonstrated that the newly proposed method is superior to the conventional method to fabricate saw teeth like blazed grating pattern for optical diffraction devices.
