Patent attributes
Embodiments related to systems and methods for thickness measurement in semiconductor structures are disclosed. For example, a method for thickness detection in a semiconductor structure may include detecting, by at least one processor, a tilt of an image of a stack of layers in the semiconductor structure. The method may also include performing, by the at least one processor, rough boundary line detection on the layers of the stack in the image. The method may further include performing, by the at least one processor, fine thickness detection on the layers of the stack in the image. The rough boundary line detection may detect boundaries of the layers of the stack with a first precision and the fine thickness detection may detect thickness of the layers of the stack with a second precision greater than the first precision. The method may additionally include providing, by the at least one processor, output results of the fine thickness detection.
