Abstract:
The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to a substrate metrology system. The substrate metrology system includes a substrate warpage measurement module configured to determine one or more substrate warpage parameters of a substrate by taking a plurality of separate measurements at a plurality of different positions over a substrate. The substrate has a plurality of conductive interconnect layers within a dielectric structure over a semiconductor substrate and a conductive bump disposed over the dielectric structure and configured to be coupled to an additional substrate of a multi-dimensional chip. A substrate metrology module has an optical component and is configured to measure one or more dimensions of the conductive bump. A position control element is configured to move the optical component. A feed-forward path is coupled between an output of the substrate warpage measurement module and an input of the position control element.

Claim (Index 11):
A substrate metrology system, comprising:\n a substrate warpage measurement module configured to determine one or more substrate warpage parameters of a substrate by taking a plurality of separate measurements at a plurality of different positions over the substrate, wherein the substrate comprises a plurality of conductive interconnect layers within a dielectric structure over a semiconductor substrate and a conductive bump disposed over the dielectric structure and configured to be coupled to an additional substrate of a multi-dimensional chip; a substrate metrology module configured to measure one or more dimensions of the conductive bump; and an advanced process control (APC) element in communication with the substrate warpage measurement module and the substrate metrology module, and configured to receive the one or more substrate warpage parameters from the substrate metrology module and to determine one or more initial operating parameters of the substrate metrology module based upon the one or more substrate warpage parameters.
