Embodiment Construction

[0023] Reference will now be made in detail to the disclosed objects illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

[0024] generally refer to Figures 1A to 5 , shows and describes a system and method for process condition measurement wafer assembly according to one or more embodiments of the present invention.

[0025] Conventional Process Conditions Measurement wafers contain measurement electronics disposed between silicon wafers. The silicon wafer is designed to shield the measurement electronics from the extreme conditions within the process chamber (eg, high RF, high heat flux, high electromagnetic radiation). Silicon wafers within these conventional process condition measurement wafers are typically coupled via one or more discrete ohmic contacts between respective silicon wafers. However, these ohmic contacts result in high current densities in and around the contacts, and possibly high potentials across the process conditions of the measured wafer. In addition, conven...

Abstract

A process condition measurement wafer assembly is disclosed. In embodiments, the process condition measurement wafer assembly includes a bottom substrate and a top substrate. In another embodiment, the process condition measurement wafer assembly includes one or more electronic components disposed on one or more printed circuit elements and interposed between the top substrate and bottom substrate. In another embodiment, the process condition measurement wafer assembly includes one or more shielding layers formed between the bottom substrate and the top substrate. In embodiments, the one or more shielding layers are configured to electromagnetically shield the one or more electronic components and diffuse voltage potentials across the bottom substrate and the top substrate.
