A method, system and computer program product for determining an Azimuth angle of an incident beam to a wafer are disclosed. A method comprises: using the incident beam to make a first set of measurements of calibration targets of a first set of grating angles that are different than one another; analyzing the first set of measurements to determine an reference grating angle which corresponds to a grating line to which the incident beam has a practically zero Azimuth angle; and determining the Azimuth angle of the incident beam to the wafer using the determined reference grating angle.

A method, system and computer program product for determining an angle of incidence of a light beam illuminating a workpiece positioned on a stage are disclosed. A method for determining an angle of incidence of a light beam illuminating a workpiece positioned on a stage may include: positioning a calibration target on the stage with multiple different tilts; first determining an angle of incident of the light beam with respect to the calibration target with each tilt using a detector; mapping a response of the detector to a determined angle of incidence; and second determining the angle of incidence with respect to the workpiece based on a result of the mapping.

A chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) control system controls distribution of pressure across the backside of a semiconductor wafer being polished. The system includes a CMP apparatus having a carrier for supporting a semiconductor wafer. The carrier includes a plurality of dual function piezoelectric actuators. The actuators sense pressure variations across the semiconductor wafer and are individually controllable. A control is connected to the actuators for monitoring sensed pressure variations and controlling the actuators to provide a controlled pressure distribution across the semiconductor wafer.
