“…In general, the longer edge length yields better measurement repeatability because metrology noise is averaged. 1 Pattern edge length for each metric is shown in Table 2. CofG distance is calculated from boundary length of two features, SRA is from boundary length of one feature and CD is from Region of Interest (ROI).…”

“…Patterns like square contacts do not have a long region. Recently, the Area metric has been deployed to achieve a longer edge 1 and is now accepted as a better option for determining contact uniformity. Another pattern without a long straight edge is the shifted pattern endend distance.…”

“…This variation in the aerial image will also cause variation in the size of the printed contact holes. Work has also been carried out to study the CD variation of the contact hole on the mask by area metrics [154]. The area metrics of the mask contact hole is the area of the contact in the mask.…”
