Abstract

A method of inspecting a semiconductor device including setting a target place on a wafer, the target place including a deep trench, forming a first cut surface by performing first milling on the target place in a first direction, obtaining first image data of the first cut surface, forming a second cut surface by performing second milling on the target place in a second direction opposite to the first direction, obtaining second image data of the second cut surface, obtaining a plurality of first critical dimension (CD) values for the deep trench from the first image data, obtaining a plurality of second CD values for the deep trench from the second image data, analyzing a degree of bending of the deep trench based on the first CD values and the second CD values, and providing the semiconductor device meeting a condition based on results of the analyzing may be provided.
