Abstract

A system for providing visualization of semiconductor wafer inspection data acquired during in a photovoltaic cell production process includes a display device, a user interface device, and a computer control system configured for: receiving one or more inspection data sets acquired from each of a plurality of semiconductor wafers using a plurality of wafer process tools of a photovoltaic cell production line; generating an aggregated hierarchical wafer data gallery utilizing the received one or more inspection data sets; and displaying at least a portion of the aggregated hierarchical wafer data gallery in the gallery display area of the display device.
