  • Publication number: 20240144467
    Abstract: A hot spot defect detecting method and a hot spot defect detecting system are provided. In the method, hot spots are extracted from a design of a semiconductor product to define a hot spot map comprising hot spot groups, wherein local patterns in a same context of the design yielding a same image content are defined as a same hot spot group. During runtime, defect images obtained by an inspection tool performing hot scans on a wafer manufactured with the design are acquired and the hot spot map is aligned to each defect image to locate the hot spot groups. The hot spot defects in each defect image are detected by dynamically mapping the hot spot groups located in each defect image to a plurality of threshold regions and respectively performing automatic thresholding on pixel values of the hot spots of each hot spot group in the corresponding threshold region.

  • Publication number: 20240145554
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards a method for forming a semiconductor structure, the method includes forming a buffer layer over a substrate. An active layer is formed on the buffer layer. A top electrode is formed on the active layer. An etch process is performed on the buffer layer and the substrate to define a plurality of pillar structures. The plurality of pillar structures include a first pillar structure laterally offset from a second pillar structure. At least portions of the first and second pillar structures are spaced laterally between sidewalls of the top electrode.

  • Publication number: 20150317098
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus is designed for interacting with an external device. The external device stores data like photos, document and/or data streams. The electronic apparatus includes a transmission interface, a detector and a processing circuit. The detector detects whether the external device is within a predetermined distance from the electronic apparatus, e.g. direct contact or within a distance. Besides, the external device is not wire connected with the electronic apparatus. The processing circuit automatically performs a data connection with the external device when the detector detects the external device within the predetermined distance.
