Thermal Detection Techniques are a class of techniques used to detect heat-generating defects on semiconductor devices. They are also occasionally used to verify thermal models of semiconductor components. The most popular of the thermal detection techniques are Infrared Thermography, Liquid Crystal Thermography, and Fluorescent Microthermal Imaging. Infrared Thermography is a sensitive, non-contact technique, but it lacks the spatial resolution needed for fine localization on semiconductor dice...
