Zusammenfassung:According to one embodiment, a light source shape calculation method includes calculating a first light source shape as an exposure illumination light source shape, so that the first light source shape has a light source shape region symmetrical to an X-axis direction and a Y-axis direction, and a process margin when forming an on-substrate pattern corresponding to at least two pattern layouts defined by design rules is optimized. A point light source is calculated such that the process margin of formation of the on-substrate pattern corresponding to a pattern layout to be formed on a semiconductor device is optimized, and is applied to the first light source shape.
