Sensor QA at BNL 2004/09/07 Junkichi Asai (RBRC) (Kieran Boyle (SBU))
Contents • Previous Evaluation of Stripixel Sensor • Result IV (leakage current –Voltage) CV (Capacitance-Voltage) (at BNL) • Preparation • Semi-automatic probe station • IV measurement with comb type • Effect of grounding other strips on IV measurement • Schedule of sensor QA • Development/production
Setup for IV/CV measurement Dark Box Micro Scope picture Measured Needle to sensor pad Grounded Needle to guard ring Micro Scope Measured Needle Vacuum hole wafer Grounded Needle chuck chuck Bias Voltage Because the pad size so small, the probe needle is contacted the pad of the wafer by watching through the microscope. There are in the Instrumentation Division.
Result : IV/CV measurements We found leakage current in the range of 100’s nA and capacitance in the 10s of pF range. 400um strip sensor
Effect of grounding other strip Micro Scope 100 Grounded Needle to guard ring Measured Needle to sensor pad Leakage current (uA) 10-1 With Grounded Needle to neighbor pad decrease current 10-2 wafer 10-1 100 101 102 103 10-1 Grounded Needle to neighbor pad Bias Voltage (V) chuck • For these measurements, an adjacent channel was grounded. The leakage current decreases by around 1/3. Bias Voltage
Why Semi-Automatic Probe station • With the present manual probe station, measuring one entire wafer (200 measurements) takes ~ 2 weeks. • To speed up, We use the Semi-Automatic Probe Station
GPIB Cable Setup Semi-Automatic Probe station Dark Box Microscope Windows LabView controlled All device through GPIB cable. Ribbon Cable Probe positioner for Guard Ring Probe card Probe stage HV/Ammeter Keithley 6487 Windows LabView sensor chuck Movable stage LCR Meter Agilent 4263B Switch system Keithley 7002 Probe station Early Oct., they will be moved to the RIKEN Lab room in physics building at BNL. In the room, the clean tent will be set up. Then we can start measurement.

Schedule of silicon sensor • Preproduction Sensor • Soon SINTEF 17 wafers are supposed to arrive at RIKEN, yesterday (9/6) • (500um, STD design, 2 type : sintering process deference) • They will be shipped to BNL and UNM, when clean room ready(?) • End of Sep. 20 sensors from Hamamatsu • (4 type : thickness=(500um, 625um) , design=(STD, New)) • Clean Room • Early Oct. build at RIKEN Lab room in BNL • QA test • Now Programing Semi-Automatic station with LabView • Wiring (probe card, Scanner, HV/Am, LCR…) • should decide how to measurement • Sep. IV/CV measurement at UNM (with probe positoner) • Continue studying sensor response with probe card at BNL • Oct. IV/CV measurement at BNL • All wafers are expected to complete QA in Dec. 2004 or earlier
