Description

The yield and device characteristics in LSI have become more sensitive to their process variation, as the design rule is more shrinked and larger wafer is used. So the process variation such as between and within wafers should be taken account in process integration to eliminate yield loss. But actually it's difficult to make experiment which can cover possible variations all in process because of cost and time. That's why some calculation method have been required recently. In this paper, we report a new method for calculating one-dimensional(vertical direction such as etching and deposition)process margin in consideration of process variation using Monte Carlo simulation.
