By Laura Peters| Semiconductor Engineering Verified Backside power delivery is being called a game changer — a breakthrough technology and the next great enabler in CMOS scaling. It promises significant PPA advances, including faster switching, lower voltage droop, and reduced power supply noise. And it is poised to deliver these benefits below the 2nm node, despite a substantial disruption in front-end processes from lithography pattern distortion caused by extreme wafer thinning, wafer bonding, and multi-layer process stacks on the frontside.
By Laura Peters| Semiconductor Engineering Verified Semiconductor devices are becoming thinner and more complex, making thin deposited films even harder to measure and control. With 3nm node devices in production and 2nm nodes ramping toward first-silicon, the importance of precise film measurement is only growing in significance as fabs seek to maintain the performance and reliability of leading-edge devices.
