With the scaling of gate oxide thickness into 1 nm regime, reported GD measurement can not give correct measurement due to gate tunneling leakage current. Here, we provide a simple method to remove this limitation. This method has been demonstrated successfully for the ultra-thin (EOT= 10.2Aring) gate oxide nMOSFET devices. Application of the method to the PBTI effects of high-k gate dielectric devices has been demonstrated. It was found that high-K device has worse gate oxide quality, but its interface damage is less than that of control oxide","PeriodicalId":283576,"journal":{"name":"2006 13th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133361948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The investigation demonstrates the effectiveness of the circuit simulation to precisely locate the defective spot which is caused by a metal slice originated from outer rings of an LCD COG (chip-on-glass) source driver. With the aid of emission microscope (EMMI), energy dispersive analysis X-ray (EDAX), and chip probing (CP) tester, the root cause of the failure is well explained.

Abdul Rahman, Sim Jit-Shen, Cheng Soon Ong, Thung Beng Joo","doi":"10.1109/IPFA.2006.251025","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/IPFA.2006.251025","url":null,"abstract":"Detection of killer defects is critical to improving yields in VLSI fabrication. Bright and dark-field inspection tools detect both killer and non-killer defects, and in some cases a high level of nuisance defects may adversely affect the ability to monitor and eliminate the real ones that have a detrimental impact on device yield. E-beam inspection tools take advantage of a phenomenon referred to as voltage contrast, and can differentiate between grounded and floating structures, thus detecting electrical killer defects. A particularly useful application of e-beam inspection is the detection of highly resistive or not-fully opened vias. Finding these types of failures with standard bright or dark-field inspection tools is extremely difficult, given the high aspect ratio and small width of typical vias. Figures showed the basic principle of e-beam analysis for vias. The sample is subjected to the analysis after via etch and barrier deposition. Vias that are fully open have good electrical connection to ground, and appear dark. Vias that are not properly open because of for example, residual dielectric material at the bottom, are electrically floating, and appear bright. This paper reports on a problem with one of the Silterra devices that suffered from sporadic cases of yield loss affecting dies on the center column of the 3times3 reticle field. Vertical stripes of failed dies would thus appear on the wafer sort maps. The failure bin (Bin 60) indicated a problem with the SRAM portion of the device. Based on the suspicion of a Vial problem, e-beam analysis was used to investigate via integrity. The motivation of this work was to find the root cause of the problem and implement a permanent solution","PeriodicalId":283576,"journal":{"name":"2006 13th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132564253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This limit was shown to be due to magnetic leakage fields from the post-deflector lens and not due to aberrations of the beam separator. In fact, it is concluded that the beam separator aberrations are within 2 nm over a 1 mum by 1 mum field-of-view, in agreement with previous simulation predictions. The results presented in this paper therefore confirm the feasibility of the spectroscopic SEM concept, from the imaging point of view, the next step is to acquire energy spectra. To further improve on the current setup, it is clear that a post-deflector lens without significant magnetic leakage field must be used. In addition, the lens should not be a transmission type as the SPSSEM relies on scattered electrons travelling back towards the beam separator. Such a lens has been designed and manufactured and is an immersion magnetic lens design which will be useful not only for imaging but also for spectrum experiments in the future","PeriodicalId":283576,"journal":{"name":"2006 13th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134374151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Diagnosis given provides insights on mechanisms by which failures occur. This helps in determining factors that lead to the failure and consequently the root cause, thus easier to provide corrective actions. In mid June 2004, a sudden increase in test fall-outs was encountered. Several devices from different product groups were affected. Fail modes reported were supply shorts and functional fails. FA on rejects showed PO damages with burnt metals as the physical defect of the rejects. PO damages are commonly induced mechanically. Burnt metals, on the other hand, are usually identified with electrical overstress (EOS) or electro-static discharge (ESD) related event. Both features were observed on inspected rejects; hence root-cause identification became a challenge. Conflicting views from counterparts added to the confusion. Experts in the US leaned on the EOS or ESD side of the case while counterparts in France maintained the mechanical angle of the issue. These conflicting inputs brought about different insights on different mechanisms leading to PO damages","PeriodicalId":283576,"journal":{"name":"2006 13th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129342827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
