A power transistor uses the bipolar current to discharge ESD current as the gate is grounded, while the channel current to discharge ESD current as the gate is floating since the gate voltage is couped up by the ESD. Under the time-varying ESD current induced magnetic field (B), the Lorentz force (J×B) has the less effect on the channel current of power transistor since it is controlled by the gate electric field. However, the Lorentz force can push the bipolar current to the finger edge of power transistor as all electrons are the free electrons after injected from the source into the p-substrate from the TCAD simulation. This is different from the classic model that ESD couples up the gate voltage of the floating-gate NMOS to turn-on all channels to give rise to the substrate currents on whole drain junction. So, the current crowded at the first turn-on region is prevented.","PeriodicalId":378702,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits (IPFA)","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116438345","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}

However, problems such as bowing, incomplete etching, and twisting occur during the channel hole etching process. For the analysis of these process problems, cross-sectional analysis of devices with high stacks is essential.However, it is difficult to uniformly measure the top and bottom layers of the source line contact and V-NAND string area. Therefore, distortion occurs through cross section analysis. The reasons include the focused ion beam incident beam angle relative to the sample coordinate system, beam current profile, and differential milling.The listed physical parameters can be adjusted in a way to obtain distortion-improved, uniform, and perpendicular image data; however, this time-consuming task is a hindrance when trying to increase the reliability of the analysis.In order to address this problem, we propose an efficient processing technique, abbreviated tomography, which is an efficient data reconstruction method.In this study, 248 images were prepared to set up the tomography algorithm data set. The data was reconstructed in a significantly reduced time using the abbreviated tomography technique. Although it took an average of 5 h to obtain 248 new 2D images, we were able to reconstruct the data in 4 min using the abbreviated tomography technique. This abbreviated tomography algorithm can be used as an efficient reconstruction tool for studying structure at the most basic level.","PeriodicalId":378702,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits (IPFA)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122703029","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}

To qualify the passivation layers, the traditional chemical recipe PAE (H3PO4 + HNO3) is used to conduct passivation pinhole test. If pinholes or cracks are present in the passivation layer of Si3N4/SiO2, the sample immersion in the test solution duration will allow HNO3 acid to chemically react with the Al layer underneath. Therefore, a black colored pinhole-like defect will be observed during optical inspection after the pinhole test. In this situation, the wafer sample fails the pinhole test and is not qualified.If there is no pinhole or crack in the passivation layers of Si3N4/SiO2, after the sample immersion in the testing solution time, HNO3 acid cannot chemically react with the underneath aluminum layer. The black pinhole-like defect during optical inspection is unable to be detected, and the wafer sample passes the pinhole test. However, this traditional method has its limitation. If the pinholes or cracks do not completely penetrate the entire passivation layer, in this case HNO3 acid cannot flow into the pinholes or cracks and could not chemically react with the underlying aluminum. As a result, those pinholes or cracks could not be detected.In this study, we proposed a new test method to replace the traditional pinhole test method by using fluorescent dye method. We have developed a fluorescence microscopy method which can be applied to qualify the passivation layer. Using this new method, we could detect pinholes/cracks in passivation layer in wafer fabrication which had totally or partially penetrate the entire passivation (Si3N4/SiO2) layer. The smallest microcrack size currently detected can reach 72nm. All micro-pinhole defects can be detected by fluorescence microscopy method, which can detect not only full perforation defects, but also those partially perforated defects.","PeriodicalId":378702,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits (IPFA)","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132018817","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}
