For these reasons, there is an increasing demand for solutions which help to interface process control tools to manufacturing equipment in a cost-effective way. In this paper different measurement strategies are compared. A modular design of metrology tools is proposed enabling equipment vendors and sensor manufacturers to fast and easily integrate various metrology tools.enin situ measurementmetrologyproductivitysemiconductor manufacturing670620530Modular metrology tools for productivity enhancement in wafer fabsconference paper
