  • Patent number: 11791127
    Abstract: A wafer inspection system includes a controller in communication with an electron-beam inspection tool. The controller includes circuitry to: acquire, via an optical imaging tool, coordinates of defects on a sample; set a Field of View (FoV) of the electron-beam inspection tool to a first size to locate a subset of the defects; determine a position of each defect of the subset of the defects based on inspection data generated by the electron-beam inspection tool during a scanning of the sample; adjust the coordinates of the defects based on the determined positions of the subset of the defects; and set the FoV of the electron-beam inspection tool to a second size to locate additional defects based on the adjusted coordinates.

  • Patent number: 11784024
    Abstract: A multi-cell detector may include a first layer having a region of a first conductivity type and a second layer including a plurality of regions of a second conductivity type. The second layer may also include one or more regions of the first conductivity type. The plurality of regions of the second conductivity type may be partitioned from one another, preferably by the one or more regions of the first conductivity type of the second layer. The plurality of regions of the second conductivity type may be spaced apart from one or more regions of the first conductivity type in the second layer. The detector may further include an intrinsic layer between the first and second layers.

  • Publication number: 20230297099
    Abstract: An information handling system includes a motherboard including a connector interface, and a liquid assisted air cooling (LAAC) module. The LAAC module includes a coolant pump to circulate coolant to one or more components in the information handling system, a leak sensor to detect whether the coolant is leaking, and a processor. The processor detects whether the coolant pump is operating properly. In response to the coolant pump not operating properly, the processor provides a first tachometer signal on a particular pin of the connector interface of the motherboard. The processor further monitors a voltage level received from the leak sensor. A first voltage level indicates a leak being detected, and a second voltage level indicates no leak being detected. In response to the voltage level being the first voltage level, the processor provides a second tachometer signal on the particular pin of the connector interface of the motherboard.

  • Patent number: 11443915
    Abstract: Disclosed herein an apparatus and a method for detecting buried features using backscattered particles. In an example, the apparatus comprises a source of charged particles; a stage; optics configured to direct a beam of the charged particles to a sample supported on the stage; a signal detector configured to detect backscattered particles of the charged particles in the beam from the sample; wherein the signal detector has angular resolution. In an example, the methods comprises obtaining an image of backscattered particles from a region of a sample; determining existence or location of a buried feature based on the image.
