Abstract
A simple, cost effective, and highly sensitive spectroscopic technique for photon emission microscopy is proposed (SPEMMI). In contrast to e arlier reported systems, this new system uses only one detector for bo th conventional failure localisation and spectral analysis. To demonst rate the functionality of the SPEMMI, emission spectra from forward an d reversed biased diodes, and from a poly-Si resistor are presented. I n addition, it is shown that the instrument allows fast determination, with mu m resolution, of the temperature profile of devices. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
