Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method of identifying an airborne molecular contamination (AMC) leaking source in a fab. The method includes distributing a sensor in the fab, executing a forward computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of an air flow in the fab, setting an inversed modeling of the forward CFD simulation of the air flow in the fab, building up a database of a spatial response probability distribution matrix of the sensor using an AMC measurement data in the fab, and identifying the AMC leaking source using the database of the spatial response probability distribution matrix of the sensor.

Description

[0001] This application claims to be a divisional application of the invention patent application with the application number 201310028005.0 entitled "Method for Identifying Gas Molecular Pollution Sources" filed on January 24, 2013. technical field [0002] The present invention relates generally to the field of semiconductor technology, and more particularly to methods and apparatus for identifying sources of gaseous molecular contamination (AMC) leaks. Background technique [0003] The semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) industry has experienced exponential growth. Technological advances in IC materials and design have produced multiple generations of ICs, where each generation has smaller and more complex circuits than the previous generation. In the course of IC development, functional density (ie, the number of interconnected devices per chip area) has increased substantially while geometry size (ie, the smallest component (or line) that can be made using a fabricati...
