Abstract

In the course of feasibility study the necessity of implementing electrochemical methods as an inline metrology technique to characterize semiconductor nano structures for a Deep Trench Dynamic Random Access Memory (DT-DRAM) (e.g. ultra shallow junctions USJ) was discussed. Hereby, the state of the art semiconductor technology on the advantages and disadvantages of the most recently used analytical techniques for characterization of nano electronic devices are mentioned. Various electrochemical methods, their measure relationship and correlations to physical quantities are explained. The most important issue of this paper is to prove the novel usefulness of the electrochemical micro cell in the semiconductor industry.
