Patent ID: 8450120

Claim:
A system for repairing a semiconductor feature, comprising: an identification subsystem; a repair subsystem; wherein the identification subsystem comprises: an inspection SEM; a first non-volatile memory; a first processor, the first processor configured and disposed to communicate with the first non-volatile memory and the inspection SEM; wherein the repair subsystem comprises; a repair SEM; a metrology SEM; a second non-volatile memory; a second processor, the second process or configured and disposed to communicate with the second non-volatile memory, the metrology SEM, and the repair SEM; a communication link disposed between the repair subsystem and the identification subsystem; wherein the repair SEM is configured to use a landing energy of 800 eV and a probe current of 50 pA; and wherein the identification subsystem is configured and disposed to communicate defect data to the repair subsystem, and wherein the metrology SEM is configured and disposed to measure the size of the feature, and wherein the repair subsystem configures the repair SEM to increase the feature size from the measured feature size to a design-specified feature size.
