Uniformity across a wafer is investigated by laser beam induced current LBIC Scanner, at several discrete wavelengths. 12 Characterization Techniques – Optical Uniformity 13 Two MCCE recipes with different uniformity. Proposed Advanced Characterisation - Optical For more comprehensive optical characterisation, UNSW is nearing completion of our unique Scatterlite tool. This tool uses a high power collimated white light source and gives full control of the sample and detector angles 14 Proposed Advanced Characterisation - Optical This tool is capable of measuring 15 - Effects of polarisation - R and T at any angle of incidence - The wavelength and angular distribution of scattered light at any angle of incidence - Uniformity mapping of any of the above, down to the micron scale - May identify texture ‘fingerprints’ that can be used for in-line monitoring quality control.

RIE is more likely to have Haze100, due to its extreme feature size. By combining GO and EM using Haze as a mixing ratio, we are now able to model most bSi reflection curves accurately. Overview 23 UNSW has comprehensive characterisation capability for black silicon. UNSW now has a black silicon database, which we continue to build. Many forms of black silicon cannot be accurately modelled by ray tracing. Haze can be used as a mixing ratio to combine GO and EM, enabling rapid and accurate modelling.
