Buried contacts come in three flavours, Pol-Surround, Dif-Surround and Crossing. The buried contacts in chipndale are parameterized by lExt and wExt, their interpretation is as follows: Diff always extends 1l to the left, material above/below and to the right is determined by lExt and wExt respectively. 2l is the pivotal value, below 2l the material is Pol, at 2l or above the material is Diff. (Note: some combinations give Diff on all four sides, it is assumed that such combinations will not be created.)
