    摘要: A graphical profile map for integrated circuits on a substrate. The graphical profile map includes a depiction of die placement boundaries and shot placement boundaries for the integrated circuits on the substrate. Also included are integrated circuit property information contours, where the contours are not limited to either of the die placement boundaries or the shot placement boundaries. In this manner, three key pieces of information for the integrated circuits are presented, including integrated circuit property information, die placement, and shot placement. Because these three pieces of information are presented in a graphical form, it is much easier to interpret the information. For example, it is much easier to determine which shot and die placements have properties that are at risk, and which shot and die placements have adequate property profiles.

    摘要: A method for determining component patterns of a raw substrate map. A subset of substrate patterns is selected from a set of substrate patterns, and combined into a composite substrate map. The substrate patterns are weighted. The composite substrate map is compared to the raw substrate map, and a degree of correlation between the composite substrate map and the raw substrate map is determined. The steps are iteratively repeated until the degree of correlation is at least a desired degree, and the weighted subset of substrate patterns is output as the component patterns of the raw substrate map.

    摘要: A method for determining outlier data points in. A subset of dataset patterns is selected from a set of mathematical dataset patterns, and the subset of dataset patterns is combined into a composite dataset. The composite dataset is compared to the dataset, and a degree of correlation between the composite dataset and the dataset is determined. Data points within the composite dataset are selectively weighted to improve the degree of correlation, and the steps described above are selectively iteratively repeated until the degree of correlation is at least a desired value. Residuals for the data points within the composite dataset are selectively determined. At least one of the weighted data points within the composite dataset that are weighted within a first specified range, and data points within the composite dataset that have a residual within a second specified range, are selectively output as outlier data points.

    摘要: A method of forming a carbon nanotube fuse by depositing a carbon nanotube layer, then depositing a cap layer directly over the carbon nanotube layer. The cap layer is formed of a material that has an insufficient amount of oxygen to significantly oxidize the carbon nanotube layer under operating conditions, and is otherwise sufficiently robust to protect the carbon nanotube layer from oxygen and plasmas. A photoresist layer is formed over the cap layer, and the photoresist layer is patterned to define a desired size of fuse. Both the cap layer and the carbon nanotube layer are completely etched, without removing the photoresist layer, to define the fuse having two ends in the carbon nanotube layer. Just the cap layer is etched, without removing the photoresist layer, so as to reduce the cap layer by a desired amount at the edges of the cap layer under the photoresist layer, without damaging the carbon nanotube layer. The photoresist layer is removed, and electrically conductive contacts are formed on each of the two ends of the fuse.

    摘要: A method for creating a reference for a first position on a substrate edge. A first reference point is selected relative to a circumference of the substrate edge, and a second reference point is selected relative to a bevel of the substrate edge. A first distance along the circumference of the substrate edge between the first reference point and the first position is identified as a first coordinate, and a second distance along the bevel of the substrate edge between the second reference point and the first position is identified as a second coordinate. The first coordinate and the second coordinate are used as the reference for the first position.

    摘要: A computerized system for analyzing information associated with a process unit. A database contains historical information relating to previously compiled information. A secure input receives criteria from a restricted source. A computer mathematically determines a limit based upon the criteria. An open input receives the information associated with the process unit from multiple test locations. A compiler selectively adds to the database of historical information the information. The computer also selects at least a portion of the information based upon selection criteria. In addition, the computer manipulates the selected information based upon manipulation criteria. The manipulated information is compared against the limit. An output indicates a first disposition of the process unit when the manipulated information violates the limit. The output indicates a second disposition of the process unit when the manipulated information does not violate the limit.

    摘要: A method of forming an electrically conductive via that abuts a key hole formed in filler material. A void is etched through the filler material in which the key hole is formed, thereby forming a link between the void and the key hole. A liner is formed within the void, where the liner is formed to a thickness that is at least about half a minimum cross sectional dimension of the key hole, so as to plug the link between the void and the key hole and thereby trap any contaminants within the key hole. Electrically conductive via material is deposited within the void to form the via.
