- First call for papers
-
- EOBT'93
-
- 4th European Conference on Electron and Optical Beam Testing
- of Electronic Devices
-
- Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), Zurich, Switzerland
-
- September 1-3, 1993
-
- Deadline: March 1, 1993
-
- Fields: Electron Beam Testing, Optical Beam Testing, Scanning Tunneling and
- Other Local Probe Microscopy Methods (STM, AFM)
-
-
-
- Sponsored by: IEEE Switzerland Reliability Chapter
-
- Organized by: ETH Reliability Laboratory
-
-
- 1. General Scope of the Conference
-
- The aim of EOBT is to provide an international biennial forum for the
- presentation and the discussion of the advances in internal and contactless
- testing by Electron Beam (EBT), by Optical Beam (OBT), and newly by Scanning
- Tunneling and other local probe microscopy methods (STM, AFM, etc.). The
- Conference covers applications on all types of semiconductors, electronic and
- microelectronic integrated circuits (including test structures), and systems.
-
- Following recent successful conferences in Grenoble (1987), Duisburg (1989)
- and Como (1991) the Program Committee solicits contributions for the 1993
- Conference in Zurich in the following areas:
-
- Applications
- - Semiconductor devices and integrated circuits;
- - Interconnecting networks, multi-chip technology, micro packaging;
- - Design validation
-
- Methods
- - e-beam: secondary electrons, backscattered electrons, EBIC, resistive, and
- capacitive methods;
- - Optical methods: photoexcitation, electro-optical effects, stimulating
- techniques, and alternative methods
- - STM, AFM, other local probe methods
-
- Techniques
- - Logic state and waveform analysis
- - Signal and image processing
- - Beam scanning and sampling techniques for time and frequency domain
- - Impressing beam modes for activation and reconfiguration
-
- Equipment
- - Signal generation: gun, lasers, needles, choppers, lenses, optics,
- electro-optics
- - Signal detection: detectors, spectrometers
- - Positioning and Stimulation: stages, probe cards, ATE connections heating,
- and cooling units
- - Integrated systems: navigation, automation, CAD/CAT-link, FIB
-
- Design for Testability
- - Principles, strategies, accuracy improvements, technology limits
-
- Applications for Reliability
- - Failure analysis
- - Sample preparation techniques
- - Reverse engineering
- - Twinning with other techniques
-
- 2. Submission Deadline
- March 1, 1993, Closing date for the submission of abstracts and short
- abstracts.
-
- 3. Papers Submission
- Papers will be selected on the basis of a 35 word short abstract and an
- extended abstract consisting in up to five A4 pages (single column) that
- states clearly and concisely the specific results of previously unpublished
- work. The working language of the conference will be English and will be used
- for all presentations and printed material. After the selection of the papers,
- the authors will be informed of the decision of the Program Committee in May
- 1993 and will receive instructions for the final layout of papers,
- transparencies and slides. Papers should be submitted in five copies
- preferably by post or express mail to the address mentioned below.
-
- 4. Best Poster Award
- The EOBT'93 Best Poster Award will be presented before closing the conference.
-
- 5. Technical Exhibition
- In conjunction with the conference a technical exhibition will take place in
- the immediate vicinity of the conference rooms. This exhibit will present
- products from the following categories: SEM, Electron Beam Testers, Laser
- Microscopes, Atomic Force and Scanning Tunneling Microscopes, and their
- accessories.
