Line-Edge Roughness from Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography to Fin-Field-Effect-Transistor: Computational Study.
Article in Micromachines, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Although extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) has potential to enable 5-nm half-pitch resolution in semiconductor manufacturing, it faces a number of persistent challenges. Line-edge roughness (LER) is one of critical issues that significantly affect critical dimension (CD) and device performance because LER does not scale along with feature size. For LER creation and impacts, better understanding of EUVL process mechanism and LER impacts on fin-field-effect-transistors (FinFETs) performance is important for the development of new resist materials and transistor structure. In this paper, for causes of LER, a modeling of EUVL processes with 5-nm pattern performance was introduced using Monte Carlo method by describing the stochastic fluctuation of exposure due to photon-shot noise and resist blur. LER impacts on FinFET performance were investigated using a compact device method. Electric potential and drain current with fin-width roughness (FWR) based on LER and line-width roughness (LWR) were fluctuated regularly and quantized as performance degradation of FinFETs.
