SEMulator3D is a high-quality, easy-to-use, customizable silicon-accurate 3D representation helping semiconductor manufacturers enhance yields, shorten time-to-ramp, and reduce development costs.
Until recently, the semiconductor industry has only been able to utilize 2D techniques (hand-drawn cross-sections, AutoCAD, GDS layered views) to help understand and communicate the designs and processes across various groups. Unfortunately, key information is lost or even incorrectly translated from 2D depictions into the reality of 3D. Furthermore, changes and developments in the manufacturing environment are making it increasingly more difficulty for design, debug, and analysis departments to accomplish Yield Enhancement. SEMulator3D addresses these challenges with a methodology involving 3D information that can be implemented for fab ramp and production control, lab Failure Analysis (FA), and Circuit Edit (CE).
SEMulator3D is the software tool for advancing process-development and Yield Enhancement. A large amount of time and money is spent on TEM sample preparation, a vital pre-requisite for achieving smaller technology nodes. SEMulator3D’s 3D models with automatic cross-section viewing capabilities, improves efficiency on FIB tools, which in turn results in higher quality samples supplied to the TEM machine. With SEMulator3D, you will improve TEM sample preparation efficiency. |
