    摘要: A method of sustaining a plasma, by focusing a first wavelength of electromagnetic radiation into a gas within a volume, where the first wavelength is substantially absorbed by a first species of the gas and delivers energy into a first region of a plasma having a first size and a first temperature. A second wavelength of electromagnetic radiation is focused into the first region of the plasma, where the second wavelength is different than the first wavelength and is substantially absorbed by a second species of the gas and delivers energy into a second region of the plasma region within the first region of the plasma having a second size that is smaller than the first size and a second temperature that is greater than the first temperature.

    摘要: Inspection of EUV patterned masks, blank masks, and patterned wafers generated by EUV patterned masks requires high magnification and a large field of view at the image plane. An EUV inspection system can include a light source directed to an inspected surface, a detector for detecting light deflected from the inspected surface, and an optic configuration for directing the light from the inspected surface to the detector. In particular, the detector can include a plurality of sensor modules. Additionally, the optic configuration can include a plurality of mirrors that provide magnification of at least 100× within an optical path less than 5 meters long. In one embodiment, the optical path is approximately 2-3 meters long.

    摘要: A method of generating a photoluminescence map for an indium gallium nitride (InGaN) well can include presenting data on a pixel by pixel basis. The data can be generated as a function of emission wavelength, line width of emission, polarization of emission, and intensity of emission. The data can also be generated as a function of excitation polarization and polarization angle orientation with respect to film crystalline axes of the InGaN well. The data can also be generated as a function of multiple wavelengths of light to generate the photoluminescence map. The photoluminescence maps can be correlated to device internal quantum efficiency as measured in test devices. The resulting correlation maps can serve as line monitors of indium rich InGaN wafers used for green LEDs.

    摘要: A wafer inspection system includes a laser droplet plasma (LDP) light source that generates light with sufficient radiance to enable bright field inspection at wavelengths down to 40 nanometers. Light generated by the LDP source is directed to the wafer and light from the illuminated wafer is collected by a high NA objective with all reflective elements. A detector detects the collected light for further image processing. The LDP source includes a droplet generator that dispenses droplets of a feed material. An excitation light generated by a laser is focused on a droplet of the feed material. The interaction of the excitation light with the droplet generates a plasma that emits illumination light with a radiance of at least 10 W/mm2-sr within a spectral range from 40 nanometers to 200 nanometers.
