  • Patent number: 11139216
    Abstract: A system, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium are provided for tuning sensitivities of, and determining a process window for, a modulated wafer. The sensitivities for dies of the modulated wafer are tuned dynamically based on a single set of parameters. Further, the process window is determined for the modulated wafer from prior determined parameter-specific nominal process windows.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 29, 2020
    Date of Patent: October 5, 2021
    Assignee: KLA-TENCOR CORPORATION
    Inventors: David Craig Oram, Abhinav Mathur, Kenong Wu, Eugene Shifrin
