ATOM PROBE DATA AND ASSOCIATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

The present invention relates to atom probe data and associated systems and methods. Aspects of the invention are directed toward a computing system configured to predict a characteristic associated with an atom probe specimen that includes a data set receiving component configured to receive a three-dimensional data set associated with a portion of the specimen. The system further includes a predicting/calculating component configured to predict the characteristic associated with the specimen based on the data set. Other aspects of the invention are directed toward a method for evaluating a manufacturing process using atom probe data that includes receiving a three-dimensional data set associated with a portion of a microelectronic assembly produced by a manufacturing process. The method further includes determining a variation between the data set and a configuration expected to result from the manufacturing process.
