摘要:
A method is provided for the controlled formation of voids in integrated circuit doped glass dielectric films. The film can be formed of borophosphosilica glass (BPSG) or other types of doped glass. The method involves the steps of providing a substrate on which conductors are formed, depositing a first layer of doped glass to a thickness in a predetermined ratio to the size of the space between conductors, reflowing the first doped glass layer, applying one or more additional doped glass layers to make up for any shortfall in desired total doped glass thickness, and performing a high temperature densification to smooth each additional layer. The method provides for increased integrated circuit speed by controlled formation of voids which have a low dielectric constant and therefore reduce capacitance between adjacent conductors. The method can be performed using existing doped glass deposition and reflow equipment.

The invention displays multiple inventory period combinations, as multiple multi-base inventory deployment proposals having assessed values for items such as cash flow and inventory value, each of said assessed values being within a range entered by an inventory deployment decision-maker. For each product included in request information, the invention finds a minimum period (the total lead time from when a given item leaves the applicable warehouse until the item reaches the base that sells the applicable product) and a maximum period (the total lead time needed for all component parts configuring the item to reach the warehouse, added to the minimum period), for each item configuring said product and each warehouse base. The invention computes product-specific inventory period combination information for each warehouse base, and creates inventory period combination information by combining said product-specific inventory period combination information for each product type. The invention performs an inventory management calculation for the inventory period combination information, computes the value of an assessment index, and compares said value to the maximum value thereof. The invention selects an inventory period combination having an assessment index value within a permitted range, as a candidate display proposal. For the candidate display proposal, the invention computes a display evaluation value for each display proposal evaluation item by multiplying a display evaluation coefficient by an inventory value.

During closer inspection with a local defect area being magnified, it is desirable to reduce image acquisition time by making the number of stage moves as few as possible so that a defect can be observed efficiently. To accomplish this, the invention offers a method of observing samples characterized by: acquiring a reference sample image not including any defect on a sample by capturing an image of the sample, based on the information on the defect developed on the sample and detected by an inspection apparatus; adjusting the position of the sample so that the defect will fall within the field of view of image capture, based on the above information; acquiring a defective sample image including the defect on the sample by capturing an image of the sample in the adjusted position; locating the defect on the defective sample image by comparing the reference sample image and the defective sample image; acquiring a magnified image of the defect by capturing a magnified view of the local area where the located defect exists within the field of view of image capture; and displaying the magnified image of the defect on a screen.
