    摘要: An optical inspector includes a radiating source, a time varying beam reflector, a telecentric scan lens, a separating mirror, and a first and second detector. The radiating source is configured to irradiate a first position on the time varying beam reflector with a source beam. The time varying beam reflector directs the source beam to the telecentric scan lens, which in turn directs the source beam to a sample. The telecentric scan lens directs specular reflection and near specular scattered radiation to the time varying beam reflector. The specular reflection is directed by the separating mirror to the first detector. The near specular scattered radiation is not reflected by the separating mirror and propagates to the second detector. In response, the optical inspector determines the total reflectivity, the surface slope, or the near specular scattered radiation intensity of the sample.

    摘要: A system and a method for measuring a height of a thin film disk or a silicon wafer having a first and a second electromagnetic signal source for generating a first and a second signal toward a first position on the thin film magnetic disk at two different angles, a first and a second sensitive detector positioned at a right angle from each other to receive a reflected portion of the first and the second signal that reflects off of the object, and to determine a radial portion of the first and the second signals and a circumferential portion of the first and the second signals. The system also includes a processor for determining the height of the first position based upon a difference between the circumferential portion of the second signal and the circumferential portion of the first signal that does not include slope information.

    摘要: A method and apparatus to measure specular reflection intensity, specular reflection angle, near specular scattered radiation, and large angle scattered radiation and determine the location and type of defect present in a first and a second transparent solid that have abutting surfaces. The types of defects include a top surface particle, an interface particle, a bottom surface particle, an interface bubble, a top surface pit, and a stain. The four measurements are conducted at multiple locations along the surface of the transparent solid and the measured information is stored in a memory device. The difference between an event peak and a local average of measurements for each type of measurement is used to detect changes in the measurements. Information stored in the memory device is processed to generate a work piece defect mapping indicating the type of defect and the defect location of each defect found.
