Abstract

In order to meet current and future node overlay, CD and focus requirements, metrology and process control performance need to be continuously improved. In addition, more complex lithography techniques, such as double patterning, advanced device designs, such as FinFET, as well as advanced materials like hardmasks, pose new challenges for metrology and process control. In this publication several systematic steps are taken to face these challenges.
