Abstract:
An optical scanning system may include a moving sample positioning stage that supports the sample during an optical measurement of the sample using the light source and the spectrometer. The moving sample positioning stage may move the sample in at least one direction during the optical measurement of the sample. A scatterometer system may include collection imaging optics for imaging the reflected light onto a multi-pixel sensor that collects and analyze the reflected light.
