Some manufacturers use a simple two-layer dielectric, dual-damascene matrix in their interconnect stack, and others have complex multilayers with single-damascene metal tracks and vias. Chipworks, as a supplier of competitive intelligence to the semiconductor and electronics industries, monitors the evolution of chip processes as they come into commercial production. Chipworks has obtained parts from leading edge manufacturers, and performed structural analyses to examine the features and manufacturing processes of the devices. The paper discusses how low-k dielectrics have been used by various vendors, and gives a comparison of their different back-end-of-line technologies. The paper will detail the physical structures we have analyzed, and also examine the different approaches to the use of low-k dielectric materials","PeriodicalId":407645,"journal":{"name":"The 17th Annual SEMI/IEEE ASMC 2006 Conference","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130548735","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}

A key issue is the need to conduct high confidence testing validating the correctness and performance of the new system. Currently, production requirements (i.e. lack of equipment time) usually limit the quantity and quality of the tests we can conduct. We have devised an approach to provide a highly realistic testing environment by simulating FAB wide equipments interacting with the MES system via the equipment integration (EI) components just as it would in actual production. This way, we are able to validate the target production system with high confidence without the need of actual equipment time","PeriodicalId":407645,"journal":{"name":"The 17th Annual SEMI/IEEE ASMC 2006 Conference","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126862017","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}

Specifically, the expected process disturbance characteristics are used to determine the nature of the control strategy. Two examples of thin film processes are considered $(i) one involving a simple one-step deposition, and (ii) the other involving two deposition steps, with feedback only possible at the end of both the steps. This paper shows that a unified control structure is capable of handling multiple process types, which traditionally have used different controllers (in terms of their structure), especially in the presence of process shifts and drifts. Furthermore, the paper will also touch upon how the choice of the controller structure depends on the number of context dependent free parameters in the model","PeriodicalId":407645,"journal":{"name":"The 17th Annual SEMI/IEEE ASMC 2006 Conference","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124861119","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}

Number of chips is primarily defined by chip area -together with details such as die aspect ratio, kerf width, edge exclusion, and die placement. While yields play the major role once a chip design is finished, in the design phase chip area can still be influenced. It is frequently thought that \"smaller is better\", i.e. a given functionality should be realized on a minimum silicon area. This is certainly true if there are no strong relationships between area and yield. In some cases, however, there are such strong relationships - a good example is redundancy configuration for memory chips or embedded memories. Powerful redundancy typically requires more area, but can boost yield on the other hand. Analog circuits may be more robust and have higher yield if devices are designed larger. Even in logic chips, DfM measures such as via duplication may sometimes increase chip area. In all these cases, an optimum of yield gain versus area growth has to be found. In this paper, we review and discuss some relationships between yield and area and present methods for optimization of good chips per wafer","PeriodicalId":407645,"journal":{"name":"The 17th Annual SEMI/IEEE ASMC 2006 Conference","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116769010","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}

A production-quality exposure tool system with NA = 1.07 (Nikon NSR-S609B) was constructed to target the start of immersion lithography for IC manufacturing in 2006. Its projection optics has very small wave-front aberration and lowest local flare levels. The overlay issue has been analyzed, and its cause was found to be evaporation cooling. With the tandem stage and local fill nozzle implemented in the S609B, we have successfully avoided the evaporation cooling so that the good wet-to-dry mix-and-match overlay data have been obtained. The major part of immersion specific defects is caused by dried water-droplets, i.e. water-marks. The local fill nozzle has eliminated this defectivity by avoiding airflow in the nozzle. In the future, water immersion with NA = 1.30 optics will be used for half-pitch 45 nm manufacturing","PeriodicalId":407645,"journal":{"name":"The 17th Annual SEMI/IEEE ASMC 2006 Conference","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125274411","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 adoption of polymer cleans using dilute sulfuric-peroxide-HF (DSP+) mixture on a single-wafer SEZ spin processor was reported earlier and has resulted in a significant cost reduction and marked yield improvement at Spansion Fab 25. Initially, the process was introduced for all metal layers and contact layers 2 through 6. Contact 1, however, was performed on a spray batch tool using a sulfuric-per oxide mixture (SPM) followed by an ammonium-peroxide mixture (APM). As part of their continued desire to use single-wafer tools and to diminish the number and quantity of chemicals used in the fab, the effectiveness of the DSP + process on contact 1 was investigated. The results of this investigation are presented here.
