Abstract :
Carrier Illumination™ provides non-destructive pre/post anneal characterization of doping processes on patterned wafers. The driving requirement for this measurement and its theory of operation and sensitivities are discussed. Correlation to key process parameters is shown. Measurements are compared on bare and patterned wafers, indicating bare wafer measurements may not be sufficient to indicate the process condition and uniformity on product.
