Abstract:In order to make wafer inspection more sensitive, it is necessary to create inspection care areas that better reflect the actual layout of features in each die. However, it is very time consuming and tedious to draw such care areas manually. In this work, we proposed a novel method to generate suitable care areas using GDS. Two innovative ways were developed and enabled this method to be implemented in a mass production.
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.
