Multi-patterning is a lithography technique that splits a dense circuit pattern into two or more masks and exposures to achieve features below the resolution limit of a single exposure. In advanced process documentation, it includes double patterning, triple patterning, and self-aligned approaches, and places stricter requirements on decomposition, overlay, and mask data preparation.

Check source meaning → confirm the preferred term → record approved variants and references.
The term appears in design rule manuals, mask decomposition flow documents, and lithography process guides. Translators handle multi-patterning design constraints, color/layer assignment labels, mask split rules, and overlay error messages in DFM and tape-out documentation. These strings occur in advanced-node design rules and mask preparation checklists, and engineers depend on clear split-layer naming.
A common error is translating multi-patterning as '多图案化' or '多模式' and losing the lithographic exposure meaning. Another mistake is using '多重曝光' for multi-exposure processes that are not used to split a single layer's features, which blurs the distinction between double patterning, double exposure, and other resolution enhancement techniques.
Technical terms need checking against the source, approved product terminology and related specifications. Keep units, parameter conditions and document versions aligned across the file set.
Provide approved terms and previous translations with the source files. Agree how variants, ambiguous wording and revisions will be reviewed. Terminology maintenance and any termbase handback are confirmed in the project scope. See the 8-step AI + expert workflow.
