Methods for acquiring planar view stem images of device structures
摘要:
A method of preparing a sample of a semiconductor device that includes placing a wafer on a support surface, milling an initial lamella within the wafer using a focused ion beam, lifting the initial lamella out of the wafer, placing the initial lamella on an upper surface of the wafer on a lateral side of the initial lamella, milling a planar lamella out of a portion of the initial lamella and the wafer beneath the initial lamella, lifting the planar lamella out of the wafer; and placing the planar lamella on a carbon grid. A method further includes milling a window within an upper portion of the initial lamella exposing internal structures of the initial lamella; and based at least partially on the exposed internal structures of the initial lamella, aligning the initial lamella on the upper surface of the wafer.
