Abstract

See full text

A monitoring pattern for detecting a defect in a semiconductor device allows a voltage contrast inspection which may be verified by an electrical test where no special test pattern is required for the electrical test. The monitoring pattern includes a test pattern with line shapes arranged in parallel and spaced apart at predetermined linewidths and intervals, and an interconnection layer connected to the test pattern, where the test pattern is adapted to be charged with a specific potential to be displayed as a voltage contrast image when scanned with an electron beam.
