Monitoring a monolayer deposition (MLD) system using a built-in self test (BIST) table

摘要

A method of monitoring a processing system in real-time using low-pressure based modeling techniques that include processing one or more of wafers in a processing chamber; determining a measured dynamic process response for a rate of change for a process parameter; executing a real-time dynamic model to generate a predicted dynamic process response; determining a dynamic estimation error using a difference between the predicted dynamic process response and the expected process response; and comparing the dynamic estimation error to operational limits.
