    摘要: A method for determination of tunnel oxide weakness is provided. A tunnel oxide layer is formed on a semiconductor wafer. At least one poly gate is formed on the tunnel oxide layer in a flash memory region of the semiconductor wafer. At least one poly island, which is substantially larger than the poly gate, is formed on the tunnel oxide layer in a voltage contrast cell region of the semiconductor wafer. The poly island and the tunnel oxide layer therebeneath form a voltage contrast tunnel oxide cell. A voltage contrast measurement is performed on the voltage contrast tunnel oxide cell. The voltage contrast measurement is then compared with prior such voltage contrast measurements on other such voltage contrast tunnel oxide cells. The tunnel oxide weakness of the tunnel oxide layer is then determined from the voltage contrast measurement comparisons.

    摘要: A variable design tool utilizes memory units to determine at which point a design rule fails. The variable design tool can provide a bit map indicating the points of failures for particular rules. The bit map can also be utilized to determine misalignment errors. The memory cells, typically SRAM units are arranged in 4×4 matrices which are arranged in four 16×16 matrices.
