摘要 |
<p>The present disclosure provides one embodiment of an integrated circuit (IC) fabrication method to form an IC structure having one or more through silicon via (TSV) features. The IC fabrication method includes performing a plurality of processing steps; collecting physical metrology data from the plurality of processing steps; collecting virtual metrology data from the plurality of processing steps based on the physical metrology data; generating a yield prediction to the IC structure based on the physical metrology data and the virtual metrology data; and identifying an action at an earlier processing step based on the yield prediction.</p> |
