Abstract:
FullVision(TM) is a real time, in situ optical endpoint system that enables the polish of SiGe fin structures with superior planarization performance. A production-proven endpoint tool for stop-in-film and stop-on-film applications, FullVision(TM) has been demonstrated for use in the CMP of advanced channel material films deposited by selective epitaxy.
