IMAGE MODELING-ASSISTED CONTOUR EXTRACTION

A wafer metrology tool, such as a scanning electron microscope, can generate an image of a structure on a wafer. A simulated image of the structure also is determined from a design of the wafer. A contour of the structure in the image and a contour of the structure in the simulated image are determi...

Zusammenfassung:A wafer metrology tool, such as a scanning electron microscope, can generate an image of a structure on a wafer. A simulated image of the structure also is determined from a design of the wafer. A contour of the structure in the image and a contour of the structure in the simulated image are determined. These contours are compared.
