WAFER ALIGNMENT IMPROVEMENT THROUGH IMAGE PROJECTION-BASED PATCH-TO-DESIGN ALIGNMENT

Image alignment or image-to-design alignment can be improved using normalized cross-correlation. A setup image to a runtime image are aligned and a normalized cross-correlation scores is determined. Image projections for the images can be determined and aligned in the perpendicular x and y direction...

Zusammenfassung:Image alignment or image-to-design alignment can be improved using normalized cross-correlation. A setup image to a runtime image are aligned and a normalized cross-correlation scores is determined. Image projections for the images can be determined and aligned in the perpendicular x and y directions. Alignment of the image projections can include finding projection peak locations and adjusting the projection peak locations in the x and y directions.
