To prepare for this upgrade, it is important to study the automation of semiconductor failure analysis. In this paper, the sample polishing activity was studied for upgrading to a smart polishing process. Two major issues were identified in implementing the smart polishing process: the optimization of current polishing recipes and the capability of making decisions based on live feedback. With the help of Solver add-in, the current polishing recipes were optimized. To make decisions based on live images captured during polishing, strategies were explored based on finger polishing process study. Our investigation showed that a grey scale line profile analysis on images can be used to build the vision capability of our smart polishing system, on which a decision- making capability can be developed.展开更多
