| Abstract | The move to low-k1 lithography makes it increasingly difficult to print feature sizes which are a small fraction of the wavelength of light. Manufacturing processes currently treat a target layout as a fixed requirement for lithography. However, in reality layout features may vary within certain bounds without violating design constraints. The knowledge of such tolerances, coupled with models for process variability, can help improve the manufacturability of layout features while still meeting design requirements. In this paper, we propose a methodology to convert electrical slack in a design to shape slack or tolerances on individual layout shapes using a two-phase approach. In the first step, we redistribute delay slack to generate delay bounds on individual cells using linear programming. In the second phase, which is solved as a quadratic program, we convert these delay bounds to shape tolerances to maximize the process window of each shape. The shape tolerances produced by our methodology can be used within a process-window optical proximity correction (PWOPC) flow to reduce delay errors arising from variations in the lithographic process. Our experiments on 45nm SOI cells using accurate process models show that the use of our shape slack generation in conjunction with PWOPC reduces delay errors from 3.6% to 1.4%, on average, compared to the simplistic way of tolerance band generation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
