Abstract
This study demonstrates that a high-volume TEM workflow can be achieved for inline defect characterization by adding a defect marking step using commercially available tools. A simple user-assisted defect marking step added to a conventional automated ex-situ lift-out TEM workflow showed 2.9 times faster throughput using 11 times less man-hours, a significant productivity gain over a conventional manual TEM workflow.
