    摘要: Computer-implemented methods and systems for determining a configuration for a light scattering inspection system are provided. One computer-implemented method includes determining a three-dimensional map of signal-to-noise ratio values for data that would be acquired for a specimen and a potential defect on the specimen by the light scattering inspection system across a scattering hemisphere of the inspection system. The method also includes determining one or more portions of the scattering hemisphere in which the signal-to-noise ratio values are higher than in other portions of the scattering hemisphere based on the three-dimensional map. In addition, the method includes determining a configuration for a detection subsystem of the inspection system based on the one or more portions of the scattering hemisphere.

    摘要: An edge-handling chuck, a system for holding and rotating a test substrate at a high speed and a method for chucking a rotating substrate are disclosed. The Chuck includes a plate having a central axis, a fluid opening and a top surface with a varied topography characterized by symmetry about the central axis. The topography is such that a volume flow rate of fluid between the fluid opening and a periphery of the top surface sufficient to counteract substrate sagging is significantly less than a volume flow rate needed for a similar but flat-surfaced chuck to similarly counteract such sagging. The system may further include a spindle motor and a gas system that supplies gas through the fluid opening to a gap between the top surface and a back surface of the substrate. A radial velocity of the fluid through the gap is approximately constant.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a system to create a haze standard on a surface of an object, comprises a radiation targeting assembly that targets a radiation beam onto the surface of the object, a drive assembly to impart relative motion between the radiation targeting assembly and the surface of the object, and a controller to regulate the radiation targeting assembly to deliver radiation at a controlled power level to at least one portion of the surface, thereby forming at least one region having a known haze characteristic.
