摘要
SGS Thomson (ST) Microelectronics' wafer fab in Crolles, France, is a Fully operational production facility for integrated circuits in Europe. The center includes the latest metrology and process-control systems, including wavelength-dispersive x-My fluorescence (WD XRF) wafer analyzer equipment from philips. Originally purchased to speed up the monitoring of phosphor silicate glass (PSG) and boron PSG (BPSG) planarization layers, the equipment is also used to measure composition and thickness of other layers, particularly TiN, as well as other metals, nitrides, and silicides.
