Abstract
A method for testing a packaging substrate with at least one electron beam column is described, wherein the packaging substrate is a panel level packaging substrate or an advanced packaging substrate. The method includes placing the packaging substrate on a stage in a vacuum chamber; directing at least one electron beam of the at least one electron beam column on at least a first portion of the packaging substrate; directing the at least one electron beam of the at least one electron beam column on at least a second portion of the packaging substrate; detecting signal electrons emitted upon impingement of the at least one electron beam for testing a first device-to-device electrical interconnect path of the packaging substrate; and illuminating at least a third portion of the packaging substrate with UV radiation.
