arXiv:2606.00228v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In semiconductor manufacturing, lithography projects circuit layouts onto silicon wafers through an optical mask. As circuit features shrink below the wavelength of light, optical diffraction causes the printed patterns to deviate from their intended layouts. Inverse Lithography Technology (ILT) addresses this challenge by generating optimized masks that enhance the fidelity of pattern transfer onto wafers. While ILT resembles an image synthesis task, its reliance on explicit physical metrics for mask evaluation limits the applicability of existi
