　　摘要：Traditionally, after ID circuit design and layout, it takes months to fabricate an IC wafer, involving a multiple-step sequence of photolithographic and chemical processing. In this talk, we will show how deep-learning-based image prediction can assist IC design for manufacturability. To this end, we formulate the lithography and etching processes of metal layers as a set of nonlinear warping functions between a patch of IC layout pattern and its corresponding SEM image, and models the set of warping functions using a CNN-based LithoNet parametrized with IC fabrication parameters.
