Project Title: Closing Inline Detection Gaps for Critical Defect Failures in Semiconductor Manufacturing

Project Description

Objective:
The project aims to identify and address an existing gap in real-time defect analysis (RDA) where certain defect failures occur without corresponding inline detection. The intern will be part of the project on developing a detection strategy or algorithm to bridge this gap, improving yield and reliability in semiconductor manufacturing.

Opportunities for Full-Time Employment:

• Exposure to advanced semiconductor manufacturing processes and defect analysis systems.
• Hands-on experience with data analytics, machine learning, and inline inspection tools.
• Contribution to a high-impact project that directly influences production quality and operational efficiency.
• Successful completion and demonstrated innovation can lead to consideration for full-time roles in RDA engineering team.

Project Scope

• Analyze historical defect data and inline detection logs to identify patterns of undetected failures.
• Investigate root causes for detection gaps and propose solutions (e.g., algorithm enhancement, inspection tool choice, sensor calibration, or new inspection logic).
• Develop and validate a prototype detection model or workflow using real production data.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Process Engineering, Yield Enhancement, Process Integration) to integrate the detection into production systems.

Learning Opportunities

• Semiconductor process flow and defect mechanisms.
• Real-time data acquisition and analysis techniques.
• Machine learning applications in manufacturing defect detection.
• Exposure to industry-standard tools for inline inspection and RDA systems.
• Problem-solving in a high-volume, high-precision manufacturing environment.

Deliverables / Impact

• A documented analysis of detection gaps and proposed solutions.
• A functional prototype or algorithm for improved inline detection.
• Quantifiable improvement metrics (e.g., reduction in undetected defects, yield enhancement).
• Presentation of findings and recommendations to RDA leadership.

Skillset Requirements

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Familiarity with data analysis and visualization tools.
• Understanding of semiconductor manufacturing concepts (preferred but not mandatory).
• Ability to work independently and collaborate with technical teams, good communication skills.

Courses of Interest

• Semiconductor Device Fabrication.
• Statistical Process Control and Quality Engineering.
• Manufacturing Systems Engineering.
• Defect Inspection tools and techniques
