Research Summary

An automatic wafer defect inspection system is a specialized machine used in semiconductor manufacturing to detect and classify defects on silicon wafers with high precision and efficiency. These systems utilize advanced imaging technologies, such as optical microscopy, laser scanning, or machine vision, to capture detailed images of the entire surface of the wafer. The images are then analyzed using sophisticated algorithms and image processing techniques to identify various types of defects, including particles, scratches, pattern deviations, and electrical defects. Automatic wafer defect inspection systems are equipped with powerful computational capabilities and software algorithms to accurately classify defects based on their size, shape, and location. By automating the inspection process, these systems help semiconductor manufacturers ensure the quality and reliability of their wafers, enabling early detection and correction of defects to minimize production yield losses.
