Through Silicon Via (TSV) Metrology
FilmTek™ 2000M TSV Metrology Advantages
- Fully automated metrology platform for fast and reliable critical
dimension, etch depth, and film thickness measurement over a wide
range of TSV sizes and aspect ratios
- CD precision (1σ) < 0.2%
- Etch depth precision (1σ) < 0.005%
- Film thickness range: 10nm - 350μm
- Film thickness precision (1σ) < 0.005%
- Measurement time of 1-2 seconds per point
- Pattern recognition by Cognex
- Lowest total cost of ownership
TSV Depth Measurement of High Aspect Ratio TSV Structures

 |
Interference between reflected
waves is caused by optical path length difference between
the top and bottom surfaces of the TSV structure |
 |
The spot size must be small
(same order as via diameter) and the measurement beam must
be nearly collimated to observe interference in the
reflected light |
 |
Patented FilmTekTM
technology allows a small measurement spot size without the use
of a high power objective |
