  • Patent number: 12253473
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an electronic system with defect identification function and a method of qualifying a photoresist pattern formed using a lithography process. The electronic system includes an inspection apparatus and a processor associated with the inspection apparatus. The inspection apparatus is used for acquiring at least one image of the specimen on which a photoresist pattern is formed using a lithography process. The processor is configured to automatically apply machine learning processes implemented through one or more neural networks to identify at least one defect present in the photoresist pattern.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 13, 2024
    Date of Patent: March 18, 2025
    Assignee: NANYA TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
    Inventors: Hung-Chih Chang, Chug-Chi Chu, Chi-Min Tu, Wun-Ye Ku
