Abstract

See full text

A combination metrology tool is disclosed which is capable of obtaining both thermal wave and optical spectroscopy measurements on a semiconductor wafer. In a preferred embodiment, the principal combination includes a thermal wave measurement and a spectroscopic ellipsometric measurement. These measurements are used to characterize ion implantation processes in semiconductors over a large dosage range.
