Overlay mask
An overlay mask includes a plurality of first patterns, a plurality of second patterns and a plurality of third patterns. The first patterns are arranged within a first pitch. The second patterns are arranged within a second pitch. A first portion of the third patterns are arranged alternately with the first patterns, within the first pitch, and a second portion of the third patterns are arranged alternately with the second patterns, within the second pitch, and the first pitch is not equal to the second pitch.
1. An overlay mask comprising:
a plurality of first patterns arranged within a first pitch;
a plurality of second patterns arranged within a second pitch; and
a plurality of third patterns, wherein a first portion of the third patterns are arranged alternately with the first patterns, within the first pitch, a second portion of the third patterns are arranged alternately with the second patterns, within the second pitch, and the first pitch is not equal to the second pitch.
2. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the first pitch is greater than the second pitch.
3. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the first pitch is smaller than the second pitch.
4. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the first patterns and the third patterns are respectively defined in different exposure steps.
5. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the second patterns and the third patterns are respectively defined in different exposure steps.
6. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the first patterns, the second patterns and the third patterns are respectively defined by different exposure steps.
7. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the first patterns and the second patterns are formed on a same layer.
8. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the first patterns are defined on a first layer, the second patterns are defined on a second layer and the third patterns are defined on a third layer, and the first layer, the second layer and the third layer are arranged vertically sequentially.
9. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the third patterns comprise a photoresist layer.
10. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the third patterns and the first patterns are arranged alternately in a first direction, and the second portion of the third patterns and the second patterns are arranged alternately in a second direction.
11. The overlay mask according to claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the third patterns and the first patterns are arranged alternately in a first direction, and the second portion of the third patterns and the second patterns are arranged alternately in the first direction.
