摘要
The investigation of dopant distribution in discrete and highly integrated electronic devices is the main application of Scanning Microwave Microscopy in the semiconductor industry. To reliably determine the dopant type and the relation between differently doped areas within an electronic device, a calibration method based on the estimated complex impedance is introduced. The validation on differently doped silicon demonstrates that the method is able to simultaneously acquire accumulation and depletion capacitances. This enables the calculation of a 2D dopant type profile and furthermore provides a monotonic dependence of the measured capacitance on dopant density. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
