DEFECT EVALUATION METHOD FOR EVALUATING DEFECT DUE TO ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE AND DEFECT EVALUATION DEVICE PERFORMING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18220879 titled 'DEFECT EVALUATION METHOD FOR EVALUATING DEFECT DUE TO ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE AND DEFECT EVALUATION DEVICE PERFORMING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a defect evaluation method for assessing defects caused by electrostatic discharge in a test object. The method involves obtaining a charged map of the lower part of the test object, preparing a test pattern to simulate the charged map, contacting the test object to the test pattern, and applying a voltage to the test pattern. This allows for the simulation and evaluation of potential defects that may occur during the manufacturing process of the test object, enabling adjustments to be made to prevent such defects.

Original Abstract Submitted

A defect evaluation method for evaluating a defect due to electrostatic discharge includes obtaining a charged map of a lower part of a test object, preparing a test pattern simulating the charged map of the lower part of the test object, contacting the test object to the test pattern, and applying a voltage to the test pattern. Accordingly, to simulate and evaluate the defect that may occur during a manufacturing process of the test object in advance. In addition, using a result obtained by the simulation and the evaluation, an arrangement of a portion vulnerable to the defect of a structure in the test object may be changed.
