For failure analysis, some standard ATPG tools offer in addition a feature to perform fault diagnosis on full scan designs. Software fault localization techniques become increasingly important in future designs, since in highly complex VHDL programmed designs, a standard analysis using functional test vectors is expendable and time consuming. This paper describes all steps necessary for project set-up and a flow for fault diagnosis. In order to minimize the list of possible failures (given by the tool) and to determine the physical location of the defect (x,y,z), a failure localization flow is presented. Initial results on ICs with both failures purposely induced by focused ion beam and real production failures represents an excellent starting point for further fault localization.","PeriodicalId":297053,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2001 8th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits.

The implementation of the SCOBIC approach is discussed and experimental results which validate the SCOBIC technique are presented.

In failure analysis, contact failures such due to insufficient trench etching and particle blocking which can cause extremely high resistance or opens are relatively easy to isolate and identify. However, for those contacts with resistance marginally higher than normal, the root cause is very difficult to identify by traditional methods like passive voltage contrast (PVC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), or focused ion beam (FIB) technology, which is quite successful for the open contact cases. This contact resistance variation is normally due to the narrow process window or process parameters drifting and may lead to relatively low yield. Direct observation of these contacts by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) provides detailed microstructural and chemical information which correlates to the failure and are unobtainable by other material analysis techniques. In this paper, we report a novel failure mechanism of the high resistance contact revealed by TEM study. Direct evidence is provided to show the impact of process changes on the contact structure which may correlate to the high resistance.","PeriodicalId":297053,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2001 8th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits.

In accordance with some drawbacks of traditional AuGeNi-Au ohmic contacts, a new ohmic contacts system with TiN diffusion barrier layer is proposed.

For these applications, the primary requirement is that the TFTs have a low threshold voltage, low and stable leakage current and reasonably high carrier mobility. The poly-Si TFTs typically have sufficiently large mobilities to be used for high-drive and moderately high-frequency applications. However, since low temperatures are used in poly-Si TFT fabrication, both semiconducting and insulating layers are of poorer quality than those used in crystalline-Si technology. Consequently, long term TFT stability is an important issue. A considerable amount of research has focused on the stability of poly-Si TFTs. The instabilities are basically associated with hot carrier injection and degradation, negative gate bias instability and gate-induced carrier injection and trapping (Young, 1996). This leads to degradation of several device parameters such as threshold voltage, mobility, transconductance, and subthreshold slope. The work presented here is a comprehensive study of degradation in low temperature (/spl les/600/spl deg/C) poly-Si TFTs due to high-field, hot-carrier and ionizing radiation stressing. This unified approach makes it possible to identify the key reasons for degradation. Furthermore, a systematic study of the dependence on device geometry, as reported here, also helps understanding of the degradation mechanisms.","PeriodicalId":297053,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2001 8th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits.

The transient current may strike the GMR head directly by passing the leads (Li-Yan Zhu, 1999) and this may be prevented by shunting the GMR leads (Bajorek et al, 1995). However, after completing the head gimbal assembly (HGA) production, the shunt leads have to be trimmed in order to test its electrical characteristics. This is thought to cause the ESD effect while trimming the shunt tab of a GMR head, and is investigated here.","PeriodicalId":297053,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2001 8th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits.
