摘要

仿真在半导体芯片制造中起着至关重要的作用。特别是,过程模拟主要用于求解掺杂扩散动力学,它描述了在热退火过程中掺杂分布的时间演变。扩散动力学是一个多尺度问题,它被表述为一组关于掺杂剂浓度和点缺陷的耦合偏微分方程(PDEs)。在本文中,我们证明了物理信息神经网络(pinn)不仅可以准确地预测掺杂谱的演变,而且可以准确地预测未知的物理参数,特别是以PDE系数形式出现的扩散系数。此外,我们提出了一种物理信息校准方法,该方法通过利用预训练的PINN模型执行pde约束优化。实验证明,这种后处理方法显著提高了系数微调的精度。据我们所知,这是第一次使用物理信息机器学习方法对半导体扩散过程进行退火模拟的演示。该框架有望使基于测量数据的仿真参数的更有效校准成为可能。

Solving the dopant diffusion dynamics with physics-informed neural networks
Simulation plays a crucial role in the semiconductor chip manufacturing. In particular, process simulation is primarily used to solve the dopant diffusion dynamics, which describes the temporal evolution of doping profiles during the thermal annealing process. The diffusion dynamics constitutes a multiscale problem, formulated as a set of coupled partial differential equations (PDEs) with respect to the concentration of dopants and point defects. In this paper, we demonstrate that Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) can accurately predict not only the evolution of the doping profile, but also the unknown physical parameters, specifically the diffusivities appearing as PDE coefficients. Furthermore, we propose a physics-informed calibration method, which performs PDE-constrained optimization by leveraging a pre-trained PINN model. We experimentally verify that this post-processing significantly improves the accuracy of coefficients fine-tuning. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of an annealing simulation for the semiconductor diffusion process using a physics-informed machine learning approach. This framework is expected to enable more efficient calibration of simulation parameters based on measurement data.

期刊介绍: Computational Science is a rapidly growing multi- and interdisciplinary field that uses advanced computing and data analysis to understand and solve complex problems. It has reached a level of predictive capability that now firmly complements the traditional pillars of experimentation and theory. The recent advances in experimental techniques such as detectors, on-line sensor networks and high-resolution imaging techniques, have opened up new windows into physical and biological processes at many levels of detail. The resulting data explosion allows for detailed data driven modeling and simulation. This new discipline in science combines computational thinking, modern computational methods, devices and collateral technologies to address problems far beyond the scope of traditional numerical methods. Computational science typically unifies three distinct elements: • Modeling, Algorithms and Simulations (e.g. numerical and non-numerical, discrete and continuous); • Software developed to solve science (e.g., biological, physical, and social), engineering, medicine, and humanities problems; • Computer and information science that develops and optimizes the advanced system hardware, software, networking, and data management components (e.g. problem solving environments).
