Problems solved by technology

However, this method is very simple and has poor precision. The sample cut by wire saw can only be called a rough sample. It takes a lot of time to do the thinning process in the TEM detection process, which is obviously inefficient.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for taking a physical property fault analysis test piece of a semiconductor device. According to the method for taking the physical property fault analysis test piece of the semiconductor device, a half sawing step is sequentially executed from one side edge to a first narrowing edge of a piece taking area and from a second narrowing edge to the other side edge of the piece taking area, so that the taking-out test piece with a convex section is formed. Therefore, the obtained boundary of the taken-out test piece can reach the target position more easily, the FIBthinning time can be shortened, byproducts generated during FIB thinning can be relieved, a sample can be reworked, and thus the flexibility of sample preparation is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of sample detection, in particular to a method for taking a semiconductor device physical property failure analysis test piece. Background technique [0002] In semiconductor integrated circuits, Physical Failure Analysis (PFA) usually uses TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) to obtain TEM photos of the structure to be tested in the chip, and obtain characteristics such as the shape or size of the structure to be tested based on the TEM photos. At the same time, TEM has the advantages of high magnification and high resolution, making it widely used in the fields of process control or failure analysis. [0003] When using TEM to analyze the characteristics of the structure to be tested, the preparation of TEM samples is a very important part. In order to obtain TEM pictures with sufficient brightness and contrast, the TEM sample must be thin enough (generally less than 100nm) so that electrons can pass through the ...
