摘要: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for providing beams for controlling charges on a sample surface of charged particle beam system. In some embodiments, a module comprising a laser source configured to emit a beam. The beam may illuminate an area adjacent to a pixel on a wafer to indirectly heat the pixel to mitigate a cause of a direct photon-induced effect at the pixel. An electron beam tool configured to detect a defect in the pixel, wherein the defect is induced by the indirect heating of the pixel.

摘要: An inspection apparatus for adjusting a working height for a substrate for multiple target heights is disclosed. The inspection apparatus includes a radiation source configured to provide a radiation beam and a beam splitter configured to split the radiation beam into multiple beamlets that each reflect off a substrate. Each beamlet contains light of multiple wavelengths. The inspection apparatus includes multiple light reflecting components, wherein each light reflecting component is associated with one of the beamlets reflecting off the substrate and is configured to support a different target height for the substrate by detecting a height or a levelness of the substrate based on the beamlet reflecting off the substrate.
