The effect of decreasing particle size down to the nano-scale and its effect on the practical use of present techniques in the future is discussed. The way in which the megasonic-cleaning technique works to remove nano-scale particles from flat and structured surfaces is presented.","PeriodicalId":64779,"journal":{"name":"半导体技术","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75242610","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}

True to tradition, the 0.1-micron node promises to provide a new set of processing complexities and significant capital investment as well as associated manufacturing costs. We have developed a methodology to analyze different process and equipment alternatives, in order to ultimately reduce the capital investment and overall manufacturing cost of wafers through this process. This approach is hierarchical in nature; in other words, it first aids with analysis of alternatives at a process step level and then these results are incorporated in the analysis of the total wafer and die cost at the macro process flow level. A Visual Basic based tool has been developed to enable this analysis.","PeriodicalId":64779,"journal":{"name":"半导体技术","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85975206","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}

Traditional production test solutions may not be able to deliver the required accuracy to guarantee performance by test without additional and often prohibitive investments in extreme high-end test systems. In order to maintain a reasonable cost of manufacturing, it is not sufficient that these parts be designed for manufacturability-they must be guaranteed by design. To be considered guaranteed by design, one needs to have the utmost confidence in their design for manufacturability system and particularly in the accuracy of their simulations. This paper describes multivariate analysis techniques, leveraging electrical test data on the process level, to accurately model the statistical variation of the process as well as provide the means for evaluating where any given ET sample falls within that distribution for validating simulations against actual measured performance data. A case study drawn from a recent product introduction in a 0.35 /spl mu/m CMOS technology is used for demonstration.","PeriodicalId":64779,"journal":{"name":"半导体技术","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82016031","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}

Obviously, this requires the analysis of large volumes of data. Using powerful statistical techniques, such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Multiple Linear Regression (MLR), efficient data reduction is achieved. A basic concept for the modeling of both defect related and parametric fails is presented. Based on a real life examples, means, variances, and covariances of test fail counts are analyzed. As covariance turns out to play a significant role, it is further analyzed using PCA to work out major independent sources of variation. MLR is then applied to partition total yield loss, resulting in the complete representation of actual yield data by just a few relevant patterns. Identification of physical root causes is consequently greatly simplified and accelerated, leading to fast problem solving and yield improvement.","PeriodicalId":64779,"journal":{"name":"半导体技术","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73732354","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 spectroscopic, zeroth-order diffraction signature obtained from a printed diffraction grating allows extraction of structural information, such as linewidth, sidewall angle, and profile characteristics. The OCD spectrometer is compact and designed for integration into etch tools and lithography tracks. Effective process monitoring requires detailed understanding of the correlation between CD-SEM and OCD measurements. Correlation between the OCD technique and CD-SEM is investigated in this paper by measuring photo-resist gratings on a polysilicon gate film stack. The scatter in the correlation plot is shown to reduce significantly when several CD-SEM measurements are averaged from a single grating. A positive offset in the correlation is observed and a mechanism is proposed to account for the discrepancy.","PeriodicalId":64779,"journal":{"name":"半导体技术","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90715847","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}

Any tool excursion could lead to serious and costly yield problems. Tool commonality among bad lots is a proven technique to identify the root cause of the problem. As the complexity of process and the number of process steps increase, it is a very challenging task to pin point which tool is the source of problem and at which process step it occurs. Taking advantage of electronic lot tracking systems, systematic tool commonality analysis is capable of effectively identifying the problem source. The critical elements of successful tool commonality analysis are discussed and summarized in this paper, including sample size selection, raw data classification, statistical analysis, time series and analysis of tools with multiple entry points within the same process flow. Several pitfalls of the analysis are identified and discussed. This analysis is successfully applied on a yield enhancement effort in an advanced volume manufacturing fab.","PeriodicalId":64779,"journal":{"name":"半导体技术","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90998351","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}
