ABSTRACT:
A correlation between develop inspect (DI) and final inspect (FI) profile parameters are established empirically with test wafers. During production, a wafer is measured at DI phase to obtain DI profile parameters and FI phase profile parameters are predicted according to the DI profile parameters and the established correlation. Each wafer is subsequently measured at FI phase to obtain actual FI profile parameters and the correlation is updated with actual DI and FI profile parameters.
