    Abstract: Disclosed are method and system for calibrating a tilt angle of an electron beam of a backscattered scanning electron microscope including scanning a bare wafer at a plurality of electron beam tilt and azimuth angles, thereby obtaining a calibration map representing a crystal orientation of the bare wafer, selecting a tilt angle and defining an expected diffraction pattern associated with the tilt angle, based on the calibration map; scanning a patterned wafer at the selected tilt angle, comparing the diffraction pattern of the image obtained from the scanning of the patterned wafer at the selected tilt angle with the expected diffraction pattern; correcting the tilt angle of the electron beam of the BSEM tool, such that the diffraction pattern of the image obtained during scanning of the patterned wafer will align with the expected diffraction pattern.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for non-destructive tomography of specimens. The system includes a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a processor(s). The SEM is configured to obtain a sinogram of a tested specimen, parameterized by a vector {right arrow over (s)}, by projecting e-beams on the tested specimen, at each of a plurality of projection directions and offsets, and. for each e-beam, measuring a respective intensity of electrons returned from the tested specimen, The processor(s) is configured to obtain a tomographic map, pertaining to the tested specimen, by determining values indicative of components of a vector {right arrow over (t)} defined by an equation W{right arrow over (t)}={right arrow over (s)}. W is a matrix with components wij specifying a contribution of a j-th voxel in a nominal specimen to an i-th element of a nominal sinogram of the nominal specimen. The matrix W accounts for e-beam expansion and attenuation with depth within the nominal specimen.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for non-destructive hybrid acousto-optic and scanning electron microscopy-based metrology. The method includes: (i) obtaining acousto-optic and scanning electron microscopy measurement data of an inspected structure on a sample; (ii) processing the measurement data to extract values of key measurement parameters corresponding to the acousto-optic measurement data and the scanning electron microscopy measurement data, respectively; and (iii) obtaining estimated values of one or more structural parameters of the inspected structure by inputting the extracted values into an algorithm, which is configured to jointly process the extracted values to output estimated values of the one or more structural parameters.
