As technology nodes advance, the need for higher sensitivity optical inspection to identify critical defects has become extremely important for technology development. However, more sensitive optical inspection can induce more nuisance and hence more

During 7nm gate poly removal process, polysilicon is removed exposing both NFET and PFET fins in preparation for high-k gate oxide. If the polysilicon etch is too aggressive or the source and drain are not sufficiently protected, the etch can damage

The use of design-based care areas on inspection tools [1, 2] to characterize defects has been well established in recent years. However, the implementation has generally been limited to specific engineering use cases, due to the complexity involved
