Materials and Chemical Analysis of Electronic Devices

  • Chapter
Microelectronics Manufacturing Diagnostics Handbook

Abstract

The performance of a microelectronic device is critically dependent on its structure and composition. Since the manufacture of the more complicated devices involves hundreds of operations, each individual manufacturing step must be controlled within very small tolerances to produce a large percentage of devices with good performance, i.e., there must be an economically meaningful product yield. The procedures defined in the other chapters of this book are intended to monitor and control these manufacturing operations. When these procedures are able to detect a problem, but not identify it, a more detailed analysis is needed.
