For some reason the combination of 160K and my Mitutoyo 100x/0.90 objective means that as the last bits of ILD begin to etch away, substrate features become *less* visible.
I expected to see strong contrast at edges of substrate features when the ILD was etched away despite poly, STI trenches, and diffusion areas all being the same material (silicon).
But that's not what I'm seeing.
Going back to my archives, though, most of my good full die 100x shots are with the …

DRAM Errors and Cosmic Rays: Space Invaders or Science Fiction?
It is widely accepted that cosmic rays are a plausible cause of DRAM errors in high-performance computing (HPC) systems, and various studies suggest that they could explain some aspects of the observed DRAM error behavior. However, this phenomenon is insufficiently studied in production environments. We analyze the correlations between cosmic rays and DRAM errors on two HPC clusters: a production supercomputer with server-class DDR3-1600 and a prototype with LPDDR3-1600 and no hardware error co…
