A surface layer formation by Cs+ bombardment was observed during ultra-thin oxynitride gate dielectrics depth profiling. A significant thickness change relative to ultra-thin layer of oxynitride was noticed when testing a bombarded sample after a per

A previous study on long term reproducibility [1] demonstrated that CAMECA Wf can delivered the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the relative sensitivity factors (RSF) of boron (B) are typically 3.7%. Above results show that deviation can be esti

Thin film deposition process invariably introduces compressive or tensile stress in the films. The stress in a film causes the wafer to warp whose curvature is estimated in a wafer fab using optical reflectance technique. Alternatively, the wafer cur

In this paper, we present a study on protective coating techniques for thin film X-TEM sample preparation. The study shows that proper choice of the protective layer before FIB cross section is a crucial step to maintain the film profile and make sur

Phosphorus is typically a common dopant used in wafer manufacturing. Measuring of phosphorous in Si-wafer is always demanding and matrix interferences is always a problem in VPD ICPMS. It is reported here the measuring of phosphorus in VPD matrix usi
