Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method of fabricating a semiconductor device. The method includes collecting a plurality of manufacturing data sets from a plurality of semiconductor processes, respectively. The method includes normalizing each of the manufacturing data sets in a manner so that statistical differences among the manufacturing data sets are reduced. The method includes establishing a database that includes the normalized manufacturing data sets. The method includes normalizing the database in a manner so that the manufacturing data sets in the normalized database are statistically compatible with a selected one of the manufacturing data sets. The method includes predicting performance of a selected one of the semiconductor processes by using the normalized database. The selected semiconductor process corresponds to the selected manufacturing data set. The method includes controlling a semiconductor processing machine in response to the predicted performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The disclosure in this specification mainly relates to a measurement model, in particular to a virtual measurement system and method applied to semiconductor technology. Background technique [0002] Semiconductor integrated circuits are produced in a wafer fabrication plant (fab) through multiple processes. These procedures and related manufacturing tools can include thermal oxidation, diffusion, ion implantation, rapid thermal manufacturing (RTP), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), epitaxy (epitaxy), etching (etch), and photoetching (photolithography). During the aforementioned manufacturing stages, the quality assurance and yield of semiconductor wafers are monitored using virtual metrology tools. [0003] Virtual metrology is a technique for predicting semiconductor process results based on modeling and pre-collected data (or training data). As semiconductor manufacturing methods advance (e.g., from 90nm to 65nm to...
