Fill process optimization using feature scale modeling

摘要

Provided herein are systems and methods for optimizing feature fill processes. The feature fill optimization systems and methods may be used to optimize feature fill from a small number of patterned wafer tests. The systems and methods may be used for optimizing enhanced feature fill processes including those that include inhibition and/or etch operations along with deposition operations. Results from experiments may be used to calibrate a feature scale behavioral model. Once calibrated, parameter space may be iteratively explored to optimize the process.
