Abstract: A method for a substrate measurement subsystem is provided. An indication is received that a substrate being processed at a manufacturing system has been loaded into a substrate measurement subsystem. First positional data of the substrate within the substrate measurement subsystem is determined. One or more portions of the substrate to be measured by one or more sensing components of the substrate measurement subsystem are determined based on the first positional data of the substrate and a process recipe for the substrate. Measurements of each of the determined portions of the substrate are obtained by one or more sensing components of the substrate measurement subsystem. The obtained measurements of each of the determined portions of the substrate are transmitted to a system controller.

Abstract: Embodiments determine wear. One such embodiment obtains, in memory associated with a processor, a finite element mesh representing a first object. For a given node of the obtained mesh, a wear variable is associated and linked to contact constraints associated with the node. A simulation of contact is performed, over movement increments, between the first object and a second object to determine wear at the node. Wear distance is iteratively determined for a given increment using the mesh, the associated variable, and the constraints. A position of the node in the mesh is iteratively updated based on the determined wear distance for the given increment, until the wear distance for each of the increments is determined. The wear at the node is determined based on the determined wear distance for each of the increments. An indication of the determined wear is output.

Abstract: A system includes a processing device, operatively coupled to the memory device, to perform operations comprising obtaining a plurality of sensor values associated with a deposition process performed, according to a recipe, in a process chamber to deposit film on a surface of a substrate. A machine-learning model is applied to the plurality of sensor values.

An output of the machine-learning model is generated that is indicative of a suspected failure of the sub-system and a corrective action is generated based on the suspected failure of the sub-system.
