Problems solved by technology

However, there are two main disadvantages of this method: one is that the nanomanipulator equipment is expensive, up to hundreds of thousands of RMB, and the other more important thing is that using a nanomanipulator to prepare such a sample requires very experienced engineers. It takes half a day to complete, high difficulty, high cost and low productivity

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) sample. The preparation method comprises the steps of step one, providing a to-be-analyzed chip, wherein the to-be-analyzed chip comprises a device layer and a silicon substrate; step two, fixedly connecting the device layer of the to-be-analyzed chip with a carrier; step three, thinning a target area of the silicon substrate; step four, cutting the device layer, and completing the preparation of the TEM sample. According to the preparation method of the TEM sample, disclosed by the invention, the operation mode is simple, the cost is low, and a curtain effect can be effectively removed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated circuit manufacturing, in particular to a method for manufacturing a shallow trench isolation structure. Background technique [0002] TEM (Transmission electron microscope, referred to as: transmission electron microscope) has a wide range of applications in various fields including integrated circuit analysis, and FIB (focused ion beam) sample preparation is the most important in the semiconductor field. TEM sample preparation means. [0003] The conventional TEM sample preparation method is to use an ion beam to cut from the back-end metal of the chip to the direction of the silicon substrate to form a TEM thin slice sample. However, when the ion beam is cut, the metal (such as tungsten) or the cavity in the sample will form a curtain-like stretch mark due to the difference in cutting rate, that is, there is a curtain effect (Curtain Effect). The pull marks are as figure 1 with figure 2 arrow poi...
