    摘要: A confocal scanning laser microscope according to the present invention employs an aperture which is provided at a predetermined position within a plane of a photomask including rectilinear pattern edges orthogonal to each other formed on a transparent substrate. The aperture is moved in such a way that coordinate positions at which a laser beam traverses the respective rectilinear pattern edges orthogonal to each other are found using output signals from an optical detector, and it is consequently brought into agreement with a focused position of the laser beam.

    摘要: A pattern defect inspection apparatus detects presence or absence of a defect in a pattern formed on a semiconductor wafer by scanning the pattern normally to the surface thereof by a coherent light beam of a predetermined spot size, detecting reflected diffraction lights generated thereby and processing the detected lights. It comprises an abnormal direction signal detector including photo-detectors having wide light receiving areas arranged in a plurality of spatial areas which the reflected diffraction lights from a normal pattern do not normally reach, a normal pattern detector including photo-detectors having large light receiving areas arranged in a plurality of spatial areas which the reflected diffraction lights from the normal pattern reach, and a defect discriminator for determining if the abnormal direction signals are due to a true defect or not in accordance with the signals from the abnormal direction signal detector and the normal pattern detector.

    摘要: An apparatus for and a method of measuring a boundary surface of a sample are disclosed in which a ratio of the light quantity of a part of reflected light from a sample which travels in the vicinity of the optical axis of the reflected light, to the light quantity of another part of the reflected light which is directed to a position deviating from the optical axis by a predetermined distance is used to accurately measure a boundary surface of a sample. Since the accuracy of measurement is increased by using the above ratio, light capable of passing through the sample can be used as incident light. Thus, a deep hole in the surface of the sample and a void such as an air bubble in a living being sample, which cannot be measured by the prior art, can be measured very accurately.
