摘要: An ellipsometer includes a stage, a light source, a polarizer, a detector, and a processor. The stage is configured to support a substrate including a pattern. The light source is configured to emit illumination toward the substrate. The polarizer is configured to polarize the illumination. The detector is configured to generate, in association with a plurality of azimuthal angles, data corresponding to polarized illumination reflected from the substrate. The processor is configured to: control rotation of the stage in association with sequential inspection of the pattern at the plurality of azimuthal angles, and determine asymmetry of the pattern based on the data. Each azimuthal angle of the plurality of azimuthal angles corresponds to a different rotational state of the stage.

摘要: A method for analyzing an object includes measuring a first reflectivity of light from a surface and measuring a second reflectivity of light from the object, after the object is formed on the surface. A variation between the first and second reflectivities is calculated, and the variation is transformed by a predetermined transform. A thickness of the object is determined based on the transformed variation.

摘要: A non-transitory computer-readable medium for monitoring a semiconductor fabrication process includes an image conversion model having an artificial neural network. The image conversion model, when executed, causes the processor to receive a first image and a second image of a semiconductor wafer. The artificial neural network is trained by inputting a dataset representing the first image and the second image, generating a conversion image of the semiconductor wafer and calibrating weights and biases of the artificial neural network to match the conversion image to the second image. A third image of the semiconductor wafer is generated based on the calibrated weights and biases of the artificial neural network. The image conversion model with the trained artificial neural network may be transmitted to another device for image conversion of low resolution images.

摘要: The measurement method may include obtaining first measurement data from a recess region formed in a semiconductor substrate, obtaining second measurement data from a conductive pattern filling a portion of the recess region, calculating a first volume of the recess region from the first measurement data, calculating a second volume of the conductive pattern from the second measurement data, and calculating a measurement target parameter using a difference between the first and second volumes.
