Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated circuit manufacturing, in particular to a plasma damage detection structure and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices, many process steps such as dry etching, ion implantation, and chemical vapor deposition use plasma. In theory, the plasma is electrically neutral to the outside, that is, positive and negative ions The numbers are equal. But in fact, the positive ions and negative ions entering the local area of ​​the wafer are not equal, which leads to the generation of a large number of free charges, making the conductors such as metal wires or polysilicon exposed to the plasma environment like antennas. Collect these free charges. The longer and larger these antennas are, the more charge they can collect. When the charge collected by these antennas reaches a certain level, a discharge phenomenon will occur. The above disc...
