PROCESS REPLAY LAB / SA-PROC-005

Thermal annealing.
Compare the evidence cards.

This lab collects four precomputed thermal-processing simulations for paper-first review: RTA activation, thermal budget mode, damage recovery, and silicide contact window.

RUN ONE QUESTION

Pick the thermal claim first.

Every card keeps a condition, output, method, source, and limitation attached. The point is evidence discipline, not facility operation.

Process / live-precomputed

RTA activation and diffusion tradeoff

Replay normalized rapid-thermal-anneal budgets to compare dopant activation, diffusion broadening, and sheet-resistance proxy.

91.71% / 16.52 nm / 386.8 ohm/sq

Open simulation ->
Process / live-precomputed

Spike versus furnace thermal budget

Compare furnace soak, spike RTA, and millisecond anneal modes so shallow-junction benefit and temperature-control risk stay visible together.

0.36 / 3.2 nm / 0.92 score

Open simulation ->
Process / live-precomputed

Implant damage recovery and TED

Replay post-implant defect recovery, activated fraction, and transient-enhanced-diffusion tail growth on one normalized anneal axis.

73.0% / 30.84% / 29.97 nm

Open simulation ->
Process / live-precomputed

Silicide contact anneal window

Replay under-reacted, target-window, and over-annealed contact cases so sheet resistance and morphology risk stay paired.

4.4 ohm/sq / 88% / 0.72

Open simulation ->
Process / live-precomputed

Anneal activation versus dopant diffusion

Replay temperature and time to compare activation fraction, diffusion length, and a junction tradeoff score without exposing anneal recipes.

-1.1309 / 850 C / 1 s / 25 cases

Open simulation ->
Process / live-browser-interactive

Anneal activation to device and FO4 delay interactive lab

Filter anneal method, temperature, time, and implant dose to inspect activation, diffusion, sheet resistance, Vt shift, and FO4-delay teaching proxies.

135 cases / 21.52 ps / heatmap slices

Open simulation ->
Process / live-browser-interactive

Contact resistance to delay interactive chain

A browser CSV lab connecting surface/contact preparation, silicide anneal, contact area, activation proxy, Rc/Rsd proxy, ring oscillator delay proxy, and SRAM bitline delay proxy.

MODEL BOUNDARY

Thermal intuition is useful only when the boundary is loud.

The public replay is for teaching, figures, and early paper planning. It is not a furnace recipe, RTA program, laser process, contact qualification, wafer release rule, or signoff result.
