System and Method for Improved Automated Semiconductor Wafer Manufacturing

摘要

A method for aligning a photolithographic machine in an automated semiconductor manufacturing system is provided. The method may include identifying a maximum precision degree for a wafer and identifying a maximum overlay correction value. The method may simulate one or more algorithms to determine whether an algorithm aligns a leading lot within alignment specifications. The method may align a photolithography machine using an algorithm selected based on the simulations.
