AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, wafer image inspection methods are sensitive to illumination and material fluctuations, resulting in low inspection accuracy and a high risk of missed detections.

Method used

Flat field correction is performed using a dark field reference frame and a preset flat field model to remove slowly changing low-frequency background. Frequency domain feature vectors of bandpass energy, directionality, and periodic signatures are extracted. A target prototype library is constructed using self-supervised/contrastive learning. Anomaly detection is performed by combining density, distance, and neighborhood inconsistency terms.

Benefits of technology

It effectively reduces the impact of illumination and system drift on detection, enhances the stable characterization of periodic and stripe-like patterns, reduces the dependence on large-scale annotation, and improves the accuracy of anomaly detection.
