发明名称 Automated variation of stepper exposure dose based upon across wafer variations in device characteristics, and system for accomplishing same
摘要 A novel method and system for fabricating integrated circuit devices is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the method comprises determining at least one electrical performance characteristic of a plurality of semiconductor devices formed above at least one semiconducting substrate, providing the determined electrical performance characteristics to a controller that determines, based upon the determined electrical characteristics, across-substrate variations in an exposure dose of a stepper exposure process to be performed on at least one subsequently processed substrate, and performing the stepper exposure process comprised of the across-substrate variations in exposure dose on the subsequently processed substrates. The system comprises a metrology tool for determining an electrical performance characteristic of a plurality of semiconductor devices formed above at least one substrate, a controller that determines, based upon the determined electrical performance characteristics, across-substrate variations in an exposure dose of a stepper exposure process to be performed on subsequently processed substrates, and a stepper tool that performs the stepper exposure process comprised of the across-substrate variations in exposure dose on the subsequently processed substrates.
