Optical TSOM method for 3D interconnect metrology

Abstract

There is a great need for high accurate, truly-3D metrology solutions that can be used for analysis of high aspect ratio features such as through-silicon-vias (TSVs). In this presentation we propose evaluating the viability of the newly developed through-focus scanning optical microscopy (TSOM- pronounced as "tee-som") method for dimensional analysis of TSVs.
