Technical field
The present invention relates to semiconductor test technical field, more particularly to a kind of nano-probe and nano-probe tester.
Background technology
In semiconductor device failure analysis, the tungsten pinned layer generally using nano-probe tester in semiconductor device is tested The electrology characteristic of semiconductor device, according to the failure cause of Electrical Characteristics semiconductor device.In quasiconductor during concrete operations An each piece nano-probe of connection on the drain electrode of device, source electrode and the corresponding tungsten bolt of grid, by nano-probe drain electrode, source electrode and Apply different voltages on grid, obtain corresponding electrology characteristic.But, existing nano-probe only one of which contact, once only A tungsten bolt can be contacted;In order to avoid no silication under nano-probe contact in test and tungsten bolt loose contact, or indivedual tungsten bolts Test error caused by the factors such as thing;To same polarity, it usually needs nano-probe is contacted multiple tungsten bolts respectively and is tested, Comprehensive each corresponding electrology characteristic of tungsten bolt carries out semiconductor device failure analysis again;Its efficiency is low, cumbersome, and due to surveying The uncertain factor brought by examination, and semiconductor device structure factor, each corresponding electrology characteristic of tungsten bolt are variant, no The actual electrology characteristic of semiconductor device can precisely be reflected.
The content of the invention
It is an object of the present invention to provide a kind of nano-probe and nano-probe tester, solve above-mentioned present in prior art Problem.
The technical scheme that the present invention solves above-mentioned technical problem is as follows:
A kind of nano-probe, including needle arm, one end of the needle arm are used for connecting test instrument, and the other end is provided with for same When with the contact for treating that failure analysis semiconductor device same polarity two or more tungsten bolt is touched.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows:In the test of failure analysis semiconductor device electrology characteristic is treated, this nano-probe can The multiple tungsten bolts of the same polarity of failure analysis semiconductor device are treated in contact simultaneously, are characterized with the common corresponding electrology characteristic of multiple tungsten bolts The actual electrology characteristic of failure analysis semiconductor device is treated, indivedual nano-probe contacts can be prevented effectively from and touched not with tungsten bolt It is good, or test error caused by the factor such as no silicide under indivedual tungsten bolt, so as to more accurately reflection treats that failure analysis is partly led The actual electrology characteristic of body device;It is and each polarity only needs to be connected once with this nano-probe, simple to operate;And this nanometer is visited Pin is touched with the multiple tungsten bolts of same polarity simultaneously, and contact area increase effectively reduces the contact resistance of nano-probe and each polarity, Further accurately the actual electrology characteristic of failure analysis semiconductor device is treated in reaction.
On the basis of above-mentioned technical proposal, the present invention can also do following improvement.
Further, the contact is multiple for while the needle point for touching with multiple tungsten bolt respectively.
It is to be arranged according to the tungsten bolt for treating each polarity of failure analysis semiconductor device using the beneficial effect of above-mentioned further scheme Cloth, designs the needle point arrangement of this nano-probe, so that the needle point of this nano-probe can be good at partly leading with failure analysis is treated The tungsten bolt of each polarity of body device contacts, it is adaptable to treat the irregular feelings of each polarity tungsten bolt arrangement of failure analysis semiconductor device Condition.
Further, the needle point is Rotary-table, and the least radius of the Rotary-table is 20-50nm.
It is that this size can take into account the accurate contact of needle point and tungsten bolt using the beneficial effect of above-mentioned further scheme, and Will not be meticulous due to needle point, make nano-probe excessive with the contact resistance of each polarity, affect test result.
Further, the needle point is installed in the needle arm by slide rail.
It is that needle point can be slided on slide rail under external force using the beneficial effect of above-mentioned further scheme, according to treating The tungsten bolt arrangement of each polarity of failure analysis semiconductor device, does appropriate location adjustment;Needle point is enable preferably to divide with waiting to fail The tungsten bolt of each polarity of analysis semiconductor device contacts.
Further, the contact is for while the conducting block touched with multiple tungsten bolt.
It is using conductive block structure, it is easy to production and processing, and can to increase using the beneficial effect of above-mentioned further scheme Nano-probe and the contact area of tungsten bolt, reduce the contact resistance of nano-probe and each polarity, and failure analysis is treated in accurately reaction The actual electrology characteristic of semiconductor device, it is adaptable to treat the situation of each polarity tungsten bolt arranging rule of failure analysis semiconductor device, As arrangement is in line.
Further, the material of the nano-probe is tungsten alloy.
It is that the fusing point of tungsten is high, and nano-probe in testing will not be because of joule using the beneficial effect of above-mentioned further scheme Heat effect and deform, and the resistivity of tungsten is less, it is possible to decrease impact of the nano-probe self-resistance to test result.
Another technical scheme of the present invention is as follows:
A kind of nano-probe tester, the probe of the nano-probe tester adopt a kind of above-mentioned nano-probe.
