Abstract:On product overlay (OPO) is one of the most critical parameters for the continued scaling according to Moore’s law. Without good overlay between the mask and the silicon wafer inside the lithography tool, yield will suffer1. As the OPO budget shrinks, non-lithography process induced stress causing in-plane distortions (IPD) becomes a more dominant contributor to the shrinking overlay budget2. To estimate the process induced in-plane wafer distortion after cucking the wafer onto the scanner board, a high-resolu… Show more
