The software suite developed by our inventors consists of two main systems: an automated defect inspection system and a nanostructure state estimation system. The automated defect inspection system provides detailed defect characterization by performing pattern matching and measurements. The nanostructure state estimation system provides the state of an nanostructure, for example, the nano-magnet’s magnetic state in an MFM image. The software is designed both as a desktop version and an online software as a service (SaaS) version. The software requires minimal user interaction and provides an easy-to-use interface for fabrication engineers and researchers to automatically analyze and characterize SEM, AFM, and MFM images of fabrication attempts to identify errors and magnetization. The software can process these images in a few minutes. This could take a few days for an expert user to complete the same task. The software enables rapid development iterations with progressively improved fabrication results.
