摘要: A method for monitoring a first nanometric structure formed by a multiple patterning process, the method may include performing a first plurality of measurements to provide a first plurality of measurement results; wherein the performing of the first plurality of measurements comprises illuminating first plurality of locations of a first sidewall of the first nanometric structure by oblique charged particle beams of different tilt angles; and processing, by a hardware processor, the first plurality of measurement results to determine a first attribute of the first nanometric structure.

摘要: A method for process control of a semiconductor structure fabricated by a series of fabrication steps, the method comprising obtaining an image of the semiconductor structure indicative of at least two individual fabrication steps; wherein the image is generated by scanning the semiconductor structure with a charged particle beam and collecting signals emanating from the semiconductor structure; and processing, by a hardware processor, the image to determining a parameter of the semiconductor structure, wherein processing includes measuring step/s from among the fabrication steps as an individual feature.

摘要: An improved technique for determining height difference in patterns provided on semiconductor wafers uses real measurements (e.g., measurements from SEM images) and a height difference determination model. In one version of the model, a measurable variable of the model is expressed in terms of a function of a change in depth of shadow (i.e. relative brightness), wherein the depth of shadow depends on the height difference as well as width difference between two features on a semiconductor wafer. In another version of the model, the measurable variable is expressed in terms of a function of a change of a measured distance between two characteristic points on the real image of a periodic structure with respect to a change in a tilt angle of a scanning electron beam.

摘要: A method for determining overlay between layers of a multilayer structure may include obtaining a given image representing the multilayer structure, obtaining expected images for layers of the multilayer structure, providing a combined expected image of the multilayer structure as a combination of the expected images of said layers, performing registration of the given image against the combined expected image, and providing segmentation of the given image, thereby producing a segmented image, and maps of the layers of said multilayered structure. The method may further include determining overlay between any two selected layers of the multilayer structure by processing the maps of the two selected layers together with the expected images of said two selected layers.
