Abstract

The invention provides a wafer defect detection method comprising the steps that the image of the surface of a wafer is acquired, and the image of the surface of the wafer is divided into multiple detection areas; multiple first determination areas are selected in each detection area, differential comparison is performed on the first determination areas in each detection area, and the threshold of each detection area for representing the defect is acquired according to the result of differential comparison; and each detection area is divided into multiple second determination areas and differential comparison is performed on the second determination areas in each detection area and then the result of differential comparison is compared with the threshold of the corresponding detection area, and the defect existing in the corresponding detection area can be acquired if the result of comparison meets the preset conditions. Different thresholds are set for different detection areas to obtain the corresponding defect number of different detection areas so that more polysilicon residual defects can be captured and the detection accuracy can be enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a method for detecting wafer defects. Background technique [0002] In the field of semiconductor manufacturing, after the wafer is chemically mechanically polished, it is necessary to scan and determine the number of defects on the wafer to achieve the purpose of checking whether the process meets the requirements. [0003] In actual production, the polishing head of the chemical mechanical polishing machine can optimize the flatness of the wafer by controlling different pressures on different regions of the wafer. During the process of grinding the wafer, the grinding head presses down on the wafer and the grinding table moves relative to each other. Because the pressure of the grinding head on different areas of the wafer is different, it is easy to cause large differences in the grinding thickness of some areas of the wafer. There are other areas where the differen...
