  • Abstract
    For successfully developing and controlling BEoL structures of the 32 nm CMOS technology node and beyond, advanced analytical techniques are needed for process development and control, for physical failure localization and analysis as well as for the investigation of reliability-limiting degradation mechanisms. These challenges are discussed from the point of view of a high volume leading-edge manufacturing.
