摘要:
To prevent overlooking of a defect due to reduction in a defect signal, a defect inspection device is configured such that: light is irradiated onto an object to be inspected on which a pattern is formed; reflected, diffracted, and scattered light generated from the object by the irradiation of the light is collected, such that a first optical image resulting from the light passed through a first spatial filter having a first shading pattern is received by a first detector, whereby a first image is obtained; the reflected, diffracted, and scattered light generated from the object is collected, such that a second optical image resulting from the light passed through a second spatial filter having a second shading pattern is received by a second detector, whereby a second image is obtained; and the first and second images thus obtained are processed integrally to detect a defect candidate(s).

In inspecting a substrate having a transparent oxide film or a metal film formed on a surface thereof by using a dark field type inspection apparatus installing a laser light source, an illuminating beam having a high coherence causes variations in reflection strength due to multiple interferences within the transparent oxide film or an interference of scattered beams due to the surface roughness of the metal film occurs and which leads to degradation in the sensitivity of defect detection. The present invention solves the problem by providing a low-coherence but high-brightness illumination using a highly directive broadband light source, and a system in which the conventional laser light source is simultaneously employed to selectively use the light sources, thereby enabling a highly sensitive inspection according to the condition of a wafer.

An operation verifying apparatus of a first embodiment acquires a log indicating the content of a sequence of operations performed on a predetermined device, identifies corresponding functions from the log, and automatically generates a program based on the identified functions. Input data, which is to serve as an argument of each of these functions, is set. Execution sets as well as test scenarios are each structured by combining a program and input data. Then each execution set is continuously executed. As a result, an operation test using a test program is executed.

Disclosed is a food sterilization method capable of heat-sterilizing foods uniformly by heating steam irrespectively with a shape of an apparatus. The food sterilization method includes introducing the food into the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber through the opening of the opening and closing part; discharging the air in the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber through the air discharging part, close contacting the sealing cover and the heat-sterilizing chamber by absorption force of the air to seal the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber, and then reducing a pressure in the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber; closing the air discharging part, supplying the steam from the steam supplying part to the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber to close contact the sealing cover and the opening of the opening and closing part by a pressure of the steam and thereby seal the opening and closing part and the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber, and then heat-sterilizing the food introduced into the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber by the steam supplied from the steam supplying part and at the same time, discharging some of the steam in the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber through the steam discharging part during the heat-sterilization; closing the steam supplying part, and discharging the steam in the inside of the heat-sterilizing chamber through the steam discharging part; and taking the food out of the heat-sterilizing chamber through the opening of the opening and closing part.

A method of measuring a pattern shape of performing a shape measurement of a semiconductor pattern at a high accuracy even when a process margin is narrow with respect to miniaturization of a semiconductor device is provided. In the method of measuring a pattern shape, when a best-match calculated waveform cannot be selected, at least one parameter among shape parameters is set as a fixed value based on information obtained by another measurement apparatus that uses a measurement method independent to the pattern shape measurement, a matching of a library and a detected waveform is performed again, a best-match calculated waveform is selected, and shape information of an object pattern is obtained from the best-match calculated waveform.
