SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE DEFECT TYPE DETERMINATION METHOD AND STRUCTURE

摘要

A semiconductor defect type determination method and structure. The method includes providing a semiconductor wafer comprising a first field effect transistor (FET) comprising a first type of structure and a second FET comprising a second different type of structure. A first procedure is performed to determine if a first current flow exists between a first conductive layer formed on the first FET and a second conductive layer formed on the first FET. A second procedure is performed to determine if a second current flow exists between a third conductive layer formed the second FET and a fourth conductive layer formed on the second FET. A determination is made from combining results of the first procedure and results of the second procedure that the first FET and the second FET each comprise a specified type of defect.
