Scalable AI-Driven Inspection for In-line Nuisance Filtering and Whole Wafer Pattern Classification

Apr 15, 2026 — 5:45 pm - 6:30 pm
SPIE Photonics Europe
Strasbourg, France

Abstract

This paper presents a Multi-Stage AI-Driven Total Solution designed to resolve inspection bottlenecks in semiconductor High-Volume Manufacturing. By integrating In-line ADC+, Post Micro ADC, and Whole Wafer (Macro) ADC, the system strategically augments rule-based AOI to filter optical artifacts in real-time and identify process-level patterns. Deployment results demonstrate a 95% reduction in nuisance defects caused by illumination artifacts (e.g., fluorescence noise) and 100% accuracy in wafer-level pattern classification. This unified ecosystem ensures data continuity from acquisition to review, significantly enhancing throughput and yield learning without compromising the sensitivity of optical inspections.
