DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT\n\nDigital twin (DT) is a relatively new technology co
 ncept with potential to improve semiconductor wafer\nprocessing. Developme
 nt of this technology has been evolutionary and a direct result of the con
 fluence\nof advances in high-performance computing\, network communication
 \, optimization techniques\, sensing\ntechnologies and the use of vast arr
 ay of sensors for process monitoring. Potential application of DT\ntechnol
 ogy to semiconductor equipment includes predictive maintenance\, fault det
 ection\, performance\nevaluation\, and chamber matching. Following a discu
 ssion of the DT concept\, this talk will focus on SC’s\nexperience with 
 the most challenging aspect of DT technology – development of fast subsy
 stem models\nthat may be subsequently integrated to create a digital twin 
 of a system. In most cases\, these low-order\nmodels have been developed f
 rom high-order\, high-fidelity physical models whose simulations run too\n
 slow for DT application. SC has an extensive background and experience in 
 using various model-order\nreduction techniques to develop such fast model
 s of various semiconductor equipment such as RTP\,\nplasma etch\, CMP\, an
 d bake lithography systems. SC has successfully used these models for clos
 ed-loop\nreal time process control\, virtual sensing\, and chamber matchin
 g. Additionally\, we describe a couple of\nour research projects on non-ma
 nufacturing applications that are relevant. In one\, a low-order model of\
 na complex system was developed by combining physics-based modeling with m
 achine learning (deep\nneural network\, or DNN) so that the user would be 
 warned when changes to the system warranted that\nthe DNN be retrained. In
  another project\, a complete DT of a large structural system was develope
 d that\nis still in operation.\n\nSpeaker(s): Abbas\n\nAgenda: \n6:00 - 6:

X-ALT-DESC:Description: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;ABSTRACT&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;Digital twin (DT) is a re
 latively new technology concept with potential to improve semiconductor wa
 fer&lt;br&gt;processing. Development of this technology has been evolutionary an
 d a direct result of the confluence&lt;br&gt;of advances in high-performance com
 puting\, network communication\, optimization techniques\, sensing&lt;br&gt;tech
 nologies and the use of vast array of sensors for process monitoring. Pote
 ntial application of DT&lt;br&gt;technology to semiconductor equipment includes 
 predictive maintenance\, fault detection\, performance&lt;br&gt;evaluation\, and
  chamber matching. Following a discussion of the DT concept\, this talk wi
 ll focus on SC&amp;rsquo\;s&lt;br&gt;experience with the most challenging aspect of 
 DT technology &amp;ndash\; development of fast subsystem models&lt;br&gt;that may be
  subsequently integrated to create a digital twin of a system. In most cas

 ion. SC has an extensive background and experience in using various model-
