Recently, MESOSCOPE successes to use Kleindiek PS8 system and Mesoscope's tips to locate defect by EBIRCH at Laboratory of Mesoscope Technology.
First, we check the current between gate to source and the current is slightly lower than customer’s test data.
Then, we check the current between gate to drain and gate to bulk. The two IV curves are diode curve. These mains that the defect is leakage defect from gate to source and pass by spacer or the gate oxide above low doped (source side).
We use EBIRCH to find the defect. We could see clearly that the red circle is the location of defect which is on the right-up side.

After that, we do EDX mapping and find out there are As and P elements in this location.
Mesoscope uses CR100B(curve rate 100nm) for the measurement. CR100B is suitable for the technology between 100nm to 130nm. All probes are pre-cleaned and could be used directly.
