In-line monitoring of the change of residual stress in nano-scale transistors during their thin-film processing and packaging
In this study, the change of the residual stress in transistors during their fabrication processes was analyzed by a finite element method (FEM) and measured by developed strain sensors. The sensors embedded in a PQC-TEG were applied to the measurement of ...
