Abstract
Models are highlighted as the key, underpinning element of specification and characterization of silicon wafers in the semiconductor industry. The role of models in interconnecting specifications, metrology, and standards across the domains of processes, equipment, and materials is described. Examples of failing models and new model approaches are provided for lithographic flatness and particle detection.
