Abstract
Various embodiments include computer-implemented methods, computer program products and systems for generating an integrated circuit (IC) library for use in a scatterometry analysis. In some cases, approaches include: obtaining chip design data about at least one IC chip; obtaining user input data about the at least one IC chip; and running an IC library defining program using the chip design data in its original format and the user input data in its original format, the running of the IC library defining program including: determining a process variation for the at least one IC chip based upon the chip design data and the user input data; converting the process variation into shape variation data; and providing the shape variation data in a text format to a scatterometry modeling program for use in the scatterometry analysis.
