Abstract:
A scanning probe microscope has a self-detection type probe structure including a cantilever having an electrically conductive probe at a distal end thereof, a supporting part, and a piezoresistance element whose resistance value changes depending on the deflection of the cantilever. A detector applies a predetermined voltage to the piezoresistance element and detects the value of the current passing through the piezoresistance element to detect deflection of the cantilever. A sample table mounts a sample such that a surface of the sample confronts a tip of the probe, and a moving mechanism relatively moves the sample table and the probe tip in X, Y and Z directions. A controller controls the moving mechanism to maintain a fixed distance between the probe tip and the sample surface and measures the surface shape of the sample on the basis of the detection result of the detector. A predetermined voltage is applied between the probe and the sample surface, and a measuring part operates simultaneously with the detector and measures electrical property information caused by the applied voltage.
Abstract:
An opaque defect is processed by scanning with a high load or height fixed mode using a probe harder than a pattern material of a photomask at the time of going scanning, and is observed by scanning with a low load or intermittent contact mode at the time of returning scanning so as to detect an ending point of the opaque defect by the height information. When there is a portion reaching to a glass substrate as an ending point, this portion is not scanned by the high load or height fixed mode in the next processing, and only a portion not reaching to the ending point is scanned by the high load or height fixed mode.
Abstract:
Under the condition that the height is fixed at a target height by turning off a feedback control system of a Z piezoelectric actuator of a cantilever of an atomic force microscope having a probe, which is harder than a processed material, flexure and twisting of the cantilever when carrying out mechanical processing while selectively repeating scanning only on the processed area (in the case of detecting flexure, parallel with the cantilever and in the case of detecting twisting, vertical with the cantilever) is monitored by a quadrant photodiode position sensing detector and the processing is repeated till a flexure amount or a twisting amount, namely, till an elastic deformation amount of the cantilever becomes not more than a determined threshold. It is not necessary to carry out scanning of the observation in obtaining the height information for detection of an end point, so that it is possible to improve a throughput of processing.
Abstract:
The invention provides a fine-adjustment mechanism for a scanning probe microscopy with high rigidity and high degree of measurement accuracy wherein a strain gauge displacement sensor which can be installed in a small space is arranged so that temperature compensation is achieved. The fine-adjustment mechanism composed of a piezoelectric device is provided with at least two-piece electrode. One of the electrodes is configured as a dummy electrode, to which no voltage is applied, and the other electrode is configured as an active electrode which generates strain when voltage is applied. One or two resistors are provided on each of the active electrode and dummy electrode, and a bridge circuit is configured by the resistors.
Abstract:
A scanning probe microscope has a cantilever having a minute probe on a distal end thereof and a displacement detecting device for detecting displacement of the cantilever. A Z-axis controlling amount calculating mechanism calculates a controlling amount for keeping constant a displacement amount of the cantilever. A Z-axis driving mechanism drives in a Z direction the cantilever or a sample in accordance with the controlling amount from the Z-axis controlling amount calculating mechanism. An XY scanning mechanism relatively moves the probe in a direction of an XY plane with respect to the sample to measure an uneven shape and/or a physical characteristic of the surface of the sample. A controlling range limiting device limits a driving range of the Z-axis driving mechanism. A controlling range setting device optionally sets the driving range of the Z-axis driving mechanism.
