IR confocal laser scan microscope
The cooled CCD camera is a basic emission detector available for

The IR confocal laser scan microscope obtains clear, high-contrast
pattern images by scanning the backside of a chip with the infrared
laser. Within 1 second a pattern image can be acquired. By the
flexible scan in 4 directions, it is possible to scan a device from
different directions without rotating it. Scanning in parallel with a
metal line makes OBIRCH image clearer. The function is also useful
in OBIRCH analysis using a digital lock-in and dynamic analysis by
laser stimulation.

NanoLens (solid immersion lens) C9710
For backside observation, nearinfrared light is used to penetrate
the Si layer. On the other hand,
optical resolution gets worse at
longer wavelengths. The NanoLens
(a solid immersion lens) is a
hemispherical lens that touches the
Si substrate and utilizes the index of refraction of silicon to increase
the numerical aperture, which improves spatial resolution and
convergence efficiency. By setting the NanoLens on a point to
observe on the backside of a device, it is possible to perform analysis
at a sub-micron level of spatial resolution in a short period of time with
greatly improved accuracy. 3 types of SIL lens cap are available in
order to correspond to Si thickness from 70um to 800um.

Comparing analog lock-in with digital lock-in (short scan period)
Due to high integration and increased performance of LSI, functional
failure analysis under LSI tester connection becomes very important.
Dynamic analysis by laser stimulation (DALS) is a new method to
analyze device operation conditions by means of laser radiation.
Stimulate a device with a 1.3 μm laser while operating it with test
patterns by LSI tester. Then device operation status (pass/fail)
changes due to heat generated by the laser. The pass/fail signal
change is expressed as an image that indicates the point causing
timing delay, marginal defect, etc.

Overview of functions
EO Probing Unit C12323
The EO Probing Unit is a tool to observe a transistor's status through
the Si substrate using an incoherent light source. It is composed of
the EOP (Electro Optical Probing) to measure operation voltage of a
transistor rapidly and the EOFM (Electro Optical Frequency
Mapping) to image active transistors at a specific frequency. With a
NanoLens, high resolution and sensitivity can be obtained.

EOP Function
This function acquires switching timing of a specific transistor
rapidly by high speed sampling. As an extended analysis of
emission and OBIRCH, the EOP function improves accuracy
of failure point localization, enabling a much smoother followup physical analysis.
Detector
EOFM image
Phase image
EOP principle
When the drain voltage of a FET varies by switching
operation, the electric field distribution at a drain boundary
also changes. This induces a change of refractive index due to
the electro-optical effect of each material. When irradiating a
drain by a light beam through the Si substrate, the intensity of
reflected light varies corresponding to the voltage level. The
EOP is a newly developed method that can observe the
reflected light which expresses the status of a transistor.
EOP waveform
EOFM Function
This function measures transistors switching at a specific
frequency and images them. The reflected light from a drain
has the power spectrum distribution. The EOFM picks up the
intensity of signal under certain frequency from the
distribution and visualize it as an image. By operating
transistors in a specific region under certain frequency, it is
possible to observe if the circuits are correctly switching or
not. 4 images can be acquired simultaneously.
