摘要:
A method and a system for calibrating the work function of a non-contact voltage sensor are provided. The method includes preparing a reference sample to have a stable work function, measuring a voltage of the sample using a non-contact voltage sensor, and determining a work function correction factor of the sensor from the measured voltage. In turn, the calibrated work function may be used to adjust voltages of substrates measured by the sensor. A corona gun which includes a first electrode and one or more conductive rods is provided. In some embodiments, the conductive rods may be angled between 0 and 90 degrees with respect to a first electrode sidewall and/or be concentrically arranged less than 90 degrees from each other. In addition or alternatively, the corona gun may be adapted to alter its length and/or include a second electrode partially inset within a space surrounded by the first electrode.
摘要:
Systems and methods for controlling deposition of a charge on a wafer for measurement of one or more electrical properties of the wafer are provided. One system includes a corona source configured to deposit the charge on the wafer and a sensor configured to measure one or more conditions within the corona source. This system also includes a control subsystem configured to alter one or more parameters of the corona source based on the one or more conditions. Another system includes a corona source configured to deposit the charge on the wafer and a mixture of gases disposed within a discharge chamber of the corona source during the deposition of the charge. The mixture of gases alters one or more parameters of the charge deposited on the wafer.
