  8. Direct Self AssemblyMetrology Gap – (3D CD through the structure) Self Assembly Patterning Block co-polymers Black and Bezencenet, IEEE Trans NanoTech 3, (2004) p 412 Stoykovich, et al, Science 308 (2005), 1442

  9. Challenge: Dimensional metrology on complex 3D structures requires many parameters to be measured simultaneously Complex structures such as FinFETs require 3D metrology 12 parameters in diagram, not counting top corner rounding, footing, or etch recess under fin. Gate spacer would increase number of parameters. One example from 2011 SPIE: Fin is measured by CD-SEM or AFM and results fed forward OCD (scatterometry) then simultaneously measures fewer parameters with improved measurement uncertainty and higher speed. All methods are advancing : Complementary metrology delivers better solution gate 1 parameter 3 parameters HM 3 parameters fin HiK/MG 3 parameters 2 parameters gates fins Require measurements of fin CD, height, sidewall angle and roughness.

  16. Modeling, Simulation, and Metrology • Need to connect multiple measurements/methods at nanoscale to properties in a large area using modeling and simulation • Example : Simulations of SRAM cell shows that each transistor experiences a different stress field – measuring one transistor does not represent the entire SRAM Cell I - V Final Stress in SRAM Cell “Sentaurus TCAD simulations from Synopsys – TCAD News Dec 2010”

Metrology Summary 3D Metrology for Advanced Memory • FEP-Interconnect-Litho • USJ Metrology Gap (profile and dose) • PC and STT RAM - New materials for Metrology • Defects in new channel materials • 3D Metrology – Confirm Geometry Requirements e.g. film thickness & properties on sidewall • Reference Methods for 3D Measurements • Composition & Stress – e.g. buried channels • EUV mask metrology requirements • ERD-ERM • STT RAM Transition to FEP & PIDS • Tunnel Dielectric • Magnetic layers and interfaces • Redox RAM • Local characterization of oxygen vacancies • Real device dimensions and structures • Metal filament characterization • Deterministic Doping • Characterize dopants in 3D • Dopant vacancies and interstitials • Directed Self Assembly • Defect detection • Structure variations • Graphene • Defects in CVD Graphene • Mobility & Substrate Interactions • Bandgap Measurement (Strain, etc.) Graphene – C.
