  • Publication number: 20240130210
    Abstract: An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) deposition system includes two deposition chambers, a transfer chamber between the two deposition chambers, a metrology system having one or more sensors to perform measurements of the workpiece within the transfer chamber, and a control system to cause the system to form an organic light-emitting diode layer stack on the workpiece. Vacuum is maintained around the workpiece while the workpiece is transferred between the two deposition chambers and while retaining the workpiece within the transfer chamber. The control system is configured to cause the two deposition chambers to deposit two layers of organic material onto the workpiece, and to receive a first plurality of measurements of the workpiece in the transfer chamber from the metrology system.

  • Publication number: 20220341722
    Abstract: An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) deposition system has a workpiece transport system configured to position a workpiece within the OLED deposition system under vacuum conditions, a deposition chamber configured to deposit a first layer of organic material onto the workpiece, a metrology system having one or more sensors measure of the workpiece after deposition in the deposition chamber, and a control system to control a deposition of the layer of organic material onto the workpiece. The metrology system includes a digital holographic microscope positioned to receive light from the workpiece and generate a thickness profile measurement of a layer on the workpiece. The control system is configured to adjust processing of a subsequent workpiece at the deposition chamber or adjust processing of the workpiece at a subsequent deposition chamber based on the thickness profile.

  • Publication number: 20180024448
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein generally relate to adjusting a focus setting for a digital lithography system. The method includes scanning a surface of a photoresist. The photoresist is formed on a substrate. A focus setting for the digital lithography system is determined. A plurality of exposure location on the photoresist are located. A sidewall width of the exposure is measured for a plurality of focus settings. The focus setting is adjusted in response to determining a minimum sidewall width.

  • Patent number: 6777676
    Abstract: Disclosed are apparatus and methods for characterizing a potential defect of a semiconductor structure. A charged particle beam is scanned over a structure which has a potential defect. X-rays are detected from the scanned structure. The X-rays are in response to the charged particle beam being scanned over the structure. The potential defect of the scanned structure is characterized based on the detected X-rays. For example, it may be determined whether a potentially defective via has a SiO2 plug defect by comparing an X-ray count ratio of oxygen over silicon of the defective via with an X-ray count ratio of a known defect-free reference via. If the defective via has a relatively high ratio (more oxygen than silicon) as compared to the reference via, then it may be determined that a SiO2 plug defect is present within the defective via. Otherwise, the via may be defmed as having a different type of defect (e.g., not a SiO2 plug defect) or defined resulting in a “false” defect.
