Patterns that contain a mix of fine and large dimension structures can advantageously be broken into a low current and a high current exposure. In this way the fine features can be written at low current (and low speed) and the large structures can be written at high current (and high speed). Some patterns, for instance a fine electrode pattern with large bonding pads, can easily and manually be broken into a fine and coarse part and placed in two different layers. For many patterns this can however be very cumbersome but the process can also be automated with Beamer using "bulk and sleeve" setup. In this setup, Beamer will extract the periphery of a pattern into one layer and the bulk of structures into another layer. The concept is illustrated below. | Patterns that contain a mix of fine and large dimension structures can advantageously be broken into a low current and a high current exposure.
