Abstract(in English) To isolate the site of leakage and high resistance on the nano scale SRAM macro-cell, 2 techniques are studied. (1)The pseudo photo emission (originated from transit function of MOS transistor or forward current of diode) provides the exact positioning information on the chip. And the resolution of 0.2μm for observing the photo point originated by the fault was obtained. The isolation of leakage which corresponds to nano-scale is possible. (2)Scanning spreading resistance microscopy technique is available for detecting the high resistance site on the opened circuit. It was proved that its technique could localize the resistance of kΩ-scale.
