Determining the optimal probing lot size for the wafer probe operation in semiconductor manufacturing

In this study, we reformulated the problem of wafer probe operation in semiconductor manufacturing to consider a probe machine (PM) which has a discrete Weibull shift distribution with a nondecreasing failure rate. To maintain the imperfect PM during the probing of a lot of wafers, a minimal repair policy [...]

Computer modeling of surface interactions and contaminant transport in microstructures during the rinsing of patterned semiconductor wafers

Computer modeling of surface interactions and contamin Highlights • Dynamics of contaminant removal from the surface of micro/nanotrench is simulated. • The trench is rectangular and made of one or two different materials. • Various diffusivities and surface characteristics are considered in the model. • In multimaterial trench, cleaning dynamics strongly depends on stacking order. • Dynamics has two regimes [...]
