    Abstract: An inspection system that may include a first detection module, an illumination and collection module, and a processor. The illumination and collection module and the first detection module may be configured to execute one or more illumination and collection iterations. Each inspection iteration may include: illuminating with illuminating radiation multiple points of an object; (ii) directing first collected radiation from the multiple points of the object through one or more first exit pupil regions towards the first detection module; and (iii) generating first detection signals that may be indicative of the first collected radiation. The processor may be configured to process the first detection signals to provide a first mapping between (i) a characteristic of radiation at the first exit pupil, (ii) the multiple points of the object, and (iii) the multiple first exit pupil regions.

    Abstract: A spatial beam shaper structure and a corresponding optical system are provided. The spatial beam shaper structure comprises a light collecting surface configured for affecting light impinging thereon to provide a substantially smooth light profile of at least one optical property, the light collecting surface having a pattern in the form of multiple surface regions comprising regions of at least two different optical properties arranged in an alternating fashion, wherein an interface region between each two locally adjacent regions of the different optical properties has the at least two different optical properties, to provide substantially smooth transition of said different optical properties within the interface region.
