Software for Line Width Roughness (LWR) Analysis

 

The program LWR_Demokritos aims at:

a) The detection of the edges of resist lines by analyzing their top-down SEM images.
b) The characterization of the roughness of the obtained line widths (LWR) using scaling analysis. The LWR parameters calculated by LWR_Demokritos are:
        i) line length independent "sigma" value 3sigmaLWR(inf),
        ii) correlation length "ksi" after which the edge looks flat,
        iii) roughness exponent "alpha" giving the relative importance of high frequency.
