摘要
A statistical simulation of a semiconductor fabrication process is performed in parallel with the actual process. Input parameters derived from a probability density function are applied to the simulator which, in turn, simulates an actual fabrication process which is modeled as a probability density function. Each simulation step is repeated with a random seed value using a Monte Carlo technique, a trial-and-error method using repeated calculations to determine a best solution to a problem. The simulator generates an output in the form of a probability distribution. The statistical simulation uses single-step feedback in which a simulation run uses input parameters that are supplied or derived from actual in-line measured data. Output data generated by the simulator, both intermediate output structure data and WET data, are matched to actual in-line measured data in circumstances for which measured data is available. The probability density structure of the simulator is adjusted after each simulation step so that simulated data more closely matches in-line measured data.
