Paper Abstract

The process of shifting from human after develop inspection (ADI) to automatic detection, classification and review of macro defects in the photolithography process is overviewed. The experiences and improvements from integration of automated macro defect detection and classification systems in a full volume, state-of-the-art production fab is described.
