| 20100308220 | INSPECTION STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR IN-LINE MONITORING WAFER - The method for in-line monitoring a wafer is described as follows. A wafer is provided, and at least one inspection structure is then formed on the wafer in the following steps. An N-well region and a P-well region are formed in the wafer, wherein the N-well region and the P-well region are separated from each other. A gate on each of the N-well region and the P-well region is formed. A P-type doped region is respectively formed in the N-well region and in the P-well region at both sides of the gates. A first contact plug is formed on each P-type doped region, and second contact plug is formed on each gate. Afterwards, a defect inspection is conducted utilizing an electron beam inspection (EBI) system, such that a short between each first contact plug and each gate is determined. | 12-09-2010 |
