    摘要: One embodiment relates to a computer method for aligning wafers processed in a semiconductor fabrication facility. In the method, a first arrangement of dies having a common functionality level is identified on a first wafer. A first alignment signature is assigned to the first wafer based on the first arrangement. A second arrangement of dies having the common functionality level is identified on a second wafer. A second alignment signature is assigned to the second wafer based on the second arrangement. The first alignment signature is compared to the second alignment signature, and the first and second wafers are selectively aligned based on a result of the comparison. Other systems and methods are also disclosed.

    摘要: A method of sequencing wafer processing order to minimize sequence correlation in a cyclical two pattern model by generating a set of sequences of wafer identifiers that each specify an order by which one or more fabrication equipments processes wafers of a wafer lot, where the wafer lot contains a number of slots and the fabrication equipments each includes a first subsystem for processing wafers in odd-numbered slots of the first wafer lot and a second subsystem for processing wafers in even-numbered slots of the first wafer lot, and where each of the generated wafer sequences contains exactly a number of wafer identifiers that match the wafer identifiers in every other wafer sequence indexed in the set.
