A system may include a first semiconductor processing station configured to deposit a material on a first semiconductor wafer and a chemical tank that provides liquid to the processing station during a deposition process. The chemical tank may provide measurements of characteristics of the liquid to a controller. The controller may be configured to receive the measurements from the chemical tank; provide an input based on the measurements to a trained model that is configured to generate an output that adjusts an operating parameter of the first station such that the thickness uniformity of the material is closer to a target thickness uniformity; and cause the first station to deposit the material on a second wafer using the operating parameter as adjusted by the output.
A system comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
A method of adjusting recipe parameters for a semiconductor process, the method comprising:
