Abstract:The drive toward faster, denser, cheaper, lower power consuming and more reliable semiconductor products is predicted to continue relentlessly toward the end of the next decade, with a new generation introduced every three years. This is achieved by reducing horizontal and vertical device geometries, and by introducing more sophis ticated device structures. While these developments move at a fast pace, industries focus on rapid yield learning to reduce development costs. The key to fast process control and def… Show more
