Abstract

Overlay in upper layer with respect to lower layer need to be measured and controlled with sub-nanometer-level accuracy in semiconductor manufacturing process. However, as the metrology to device (MTD) deviation continues to increase, there is a growing need to maintain and improve MTD variation. In this study, we propose a methodology utilizing COMSOL Multiphysics to directly track process changes and quantify their impact. It can realize actual measurement equipment setting and modify optical property. We will introduce device matching methods that can improve MTD on product wafers through optical simulations.
