Abstract:
A method and system for using transmission spectroscopy to measure a temperature of a substrate (135). By passing light through a substrate, the temperature of the substrate can be determined using the band-edge characteristics of the wafer. This in-situ method and system can be used as a feedback control in combination with a variable temperature substrate holder (182) to more accurately control the processing conditions of the substrate. By utilizing a multiplicity of measurement sites the variation of the temperature across the substrate (135) can also be measured.
