高算力器件的发展使得人们愈发需要深化对智能制造工厂的全新认知并推动其建设。已有研究表明,带仿真器的离散事件模型对半导体芯片制造的架构规划、设计、搭建与运营至关重要。扩散机、离子注入机和光刻机因具备前馈与反馈连接特性,其工艺流程十分复杂。从工厂模型仿真中采集的数据集有望用于构建高价值的机器学习模型。作为基于代理数据的模型,这类模型的运行效率远高于基于物理的对应模型。为开发代理模型,拥有基于工厂模型构建、结构简洁且行为准确的公开基准仿真模型大有助益。因此,本研究基于英特尔(Intel)半导体制造工厂的基准模型,设计并构建了一个数据集。该模型采用并行离散事件系统规范(Parallel Discrete-Event System Specification)进行形式化定义,并通过DEVS-Suite仿真器运行。该时间序列数据集基于离散事件时间轨迹构建。研究进一步分析了该数据集,并将其用于开发基线单变量与多变量机器学习模型。该数据集也可供机器学习领域用于基于形式化、可扩展的组件化离散事件模型与仿真开展行为分析。
英文摘要:
Advancements in high-computing devices increase the necessity for improved and new understanding and development of smart manufacturing factories. Discrete-event models with simulators have been shown to be critical to architect, designing, building, and operating the manufacturing of semiconductor chips. The diffusion, implantation, and lithography machines have intricate processes due to their feedforward and feedback connectivity. The dataset collected from simulations of the factory models holds the promise of generating valuable machine-learning models. As surrogate data-based models, their executions are highly efficient compared to the physics-based counterpart models. For the development of surrogate models, it is beneficial to have publicly available benchmark simulation models that are grounded in factory models that have concise structures and accurate behaviors. Hence, in this research, a dataset is devised and constructed based on a benchmark model of an Intel semiconductor fabrication factory. The model is formalized using the Parallel Discrete-Event System Specification and executed using the DEVS-Suite simulator. The time series dataset is constructed using discrete-event time trajectories. This dataset is further analyzed and used to develop baseline univariate and multivariate machine learning models. The dataset can also be utilized in the machine learning community for behavioral analysis based on formalized and scalable component-based discrete-event models and simulations.

Semiconductor manufacturing is a notoriously complex and costly multi-step process involving a long sequence of operations on expensive and quantity-limited equipment. Recent chip shortages and their impacts have highlighted the importance of semiconductors in the global supply chains and how reliant on those our daily lives are. Due to the investment cost, environmental impact, and time scale needed to build new factories, it is difficult to ramp up production when demand spikes. This work introduces a method to successfully learn to schedule a semiconductor manufacturing facility more effici…
The high-volume manufacturing of the next generation of semiconductor devices requires advances in measurement signal analysis. Many in the semiconductor manufacturing community have reservations about the adoption of deep learning; they instead prefer other model-based approaches for some image regression problems, and according to the 2021 IEEE International Roadmap for Devices and Systems (IRDS) report on Metrology a SEMI standardization committee may endorse this philosophy. The semiconductor manufacturing community does, however, communicate a need for state-of-the-art statistical analyse…
