Abstract

A computer readable medium includes instructions that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to perform an operation. The operations include processing a first substrate in a processing chamber while the first substrate is supported by a substrate support in a first placement position. The first substrate includes a first surface profile after processing. The operations further include generating a first surface profile map of the first surface profile using the substrate measurement system. The operations further include determining a plurality of etch rates corresponding to the plurality of locations on the first substrate. The operations also include processing data associated with the plurality of etch rates using a model that outputs one or more estimated surface profiles associated with the one or more estimated placement locations. The operations also include determining a suggested placement of the substrate on the substrate support based on the one or more estimated placement locations.
