Abstract
An alternative method to fixed quality acceptance limits for in-line y ield control is proposed. Our study is based on a sensitivity analysis , which has revealed that conventional parametric yield-control techni ques using fixed in-line acceptance (tolerance) limits, as traditional ly used in semiconductor manufacturing, are not efficient in deep subm icron-size devices.
