Zusammenfassung: | A design method of a photomask structure including the following steps is provided. A first layout pattern is provided. An assist pattern is added aside the first layout pattern. An optical proximity correction (OPC) is performed to convert the first layout pattern into a second layout pattern, wherein the assist pattern has an adjacent portion adjacent to the second layout pattern, a first distance between the adjacent portion and the second layout pattern is less than a safety distance, and the safety distance is a distance to prevent the assist pattern from being transferred to a photoresist layer during a lithography process. After the OPC is performed, the adjacent portion is shifted to increase the first distance to a second distance, wherein the second distance is greater than or equal to the safety distance. |
