Abstract:In semiconductor fabrication processes, reliable feature extraction and condition monitoring is critical to understanding equipment degradation and implementing the proper maintenance decisions. This paper presents an integrated feature extraction and equipment monitoring approach based on standard built-in sensors from a modern 300mm-technology industrial Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) tool. Linear Discriminant Analysis was utilized to determine the set of dynamic features that are the most… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
