    Abstract: A non-polarization beam splitter is used for splitting optical paths of an illumination system and an image formation system. MTF characteristics independent of an orientation of a pattern on a sample is obtained by illumination with a circularly-polarized light by combining a polarizer and a λ/4 plate. A partial polarizer is put in the image formation system immediately after the non-polarization beam splitter, and high-order diffraction lights are taken in with the maximum efficiency and the transmission efficiency of the zero-order light is controlled to improve high frequency part of MTF.

    Abstract: The pattern defect inspection apparatus is operable to detect defects by comparing a detection image, which is obtained through scanning by an image sensor those patterns that have the identical shape and are continuously disposed on the object under tested at equal intervals in row and column directions, with a reference image obtained by scanning neighboring identical shape patterns in the row and column directions. This apparatus has a unit for generating an average reference image by statistical computation processing from the images of identical shape patterns lying next to the detection image including at least eight nearest chips on the up-and-down and right-and-left sides and at diagonal positions with the detection image being intermediately situated. The apparatus also includes a unit that detects a defect by comparing the detection image to the average reference image thus generated.

    Abstract: For recording data on and reproducing data from an optical disk of a single spiral land/groove configuration, a header detector detects header regions on the optical disk, a PID error detector judges whether the address information read from the header regions is erroneous, using error detection codes, and detects the number of errors per sector. An error count comparator compares the number of errors per sector with a predetermined value, and a state judging circuit identifies the state of the optical disk device by causing transition to a higher or lower state according to the output of the error count comparator. The recording and reproduction are controlled according to the state thus identified.

    Abstract: If a determination is made that a signal is not normally detected by the pre-pit-region detection circuit 53, an error signal is obtained from a pulse generator 58 to control the rotations of the disk 50. If a determination is made that a signal is normally detected by the pre-pit-region detection circuit 53 and if the synchronizing signals are not normally detected at predetermined intervals, an error signal is obtained from the wobble signal so that the rotations of the disk 50 are controlled. If a determination is made that synchronizing signals are detected by the pre-pit-region detection circuit 53 at predetermined intervals, an error signal is obtained from clocks synchronized with the reproduced signal generated by the PLL circuit 54 so that rotations of the disk 50 are controlled.

    Abstract: Irregular mechanical imperfections caused by constituent parts of a monochromator in connection with wavelength setting are compensated by calibrating the monochromator according to the present invention. A whole measurable spectral range in the monochromator is divided into a plurality of spectral regions by a plurality of calibration wavelengths. Errors between apparent wavelengths set theoretically and their true wavelengths are obtained with respect to the respective calibration wavelengths. Error functions in connection with the respective spectral regions are calculated on the basis of the array of the obtained errors. An element to be detected in a sample is measured under a wavelength the error of which has been compensated for by use of an error function in a spectral region associated with a wavelength to be detected.
