With pattern dimensions decreasing in CMOS technology, the variability in device parametric characteristics such as transistor drive currents is increased, resulting in device yield degradation. To address this variability, we focused on the development of advanced process control tools. A statistical analysis of the parametric variations in both saturation and subthreshold regimes has been carried out in order to identify the main process contributors: the large gate line-width CD variation. The lot-to-lot component of this variation is significant so we considered a novel strategy: cooperative control. Recursive identification algorithms have been simulated and compared. A full-automated run-to-run feed-forward control scheme from Gate Et...
