    摘要: The temperature measuring system using optical interference includes a light source which generates measuring light; a spectroscope which measures an interference intensity distribution that is an intensity distribution of reflected light; optical transfer mechanisms which emit light reflected from a surface and a rear surface of the object to be measured to the spectroscope; an optical path length calculation unit which calculates an optical path length by performing Fourier transformation; and a temperature calculation unit which calculates a temperature of the object to be measured on the basis of a relation between optical path lengths and temperatures. The light source has a half-width at half-maximum of a light source spectrum that satisfies conditions based on a wavelength span of the spectroscope. The spectroscope measures the intensity distribution by using the number of samplings that satisfies conditions based on the wavelength span and a maximum measurable thickness.

    摘要: A plasma processing apparatus and a temperature measuring method that may measure a temperature of an object in a processing chamber by a low-coherence interferometer without forming a hole in a holding stage or an upper electrode of the plasma processing apparatus, thereby performing a plasma process of a substrate with high precision and uniformity. The plasma processing apparatus is implemented by disposing a light source collimator outside of a light source window, disposing a light-receiving collimator outside of a light-receiving window, allowing a measurement light emitted from the light source collimator to pass through the light source window to be obliquely emitted to a surface of the object to be measured, and allowing the reflected measurement light to pass through the light-receiving window to be incident on the light-receiving collimator. The temperature of the object in the processing chamber may be measured by the low-coherence interferometer.

    摘要: A temperature measurement apparatus includes a light source; a first splitter that splits a light beam into a measurement beam and a reference beam; a reference beam reflector that reflects the reference beam; an optical path length adjustor; a second splitter that splits the reflected reference beam into a first reflected reference beam and a second reflected reference beam; a first photodetector that measures an interference between the first reflected reference beam and a reflected measurement beam obtained by the measurement beam reflected from a target object; a second photodetector that measures an intensity of the second reflected reference beam; and a temperature calculation unit. The temperature calculation unit calculates a location of the interference by subtracting an output signal of the second photodetector from an output signal of the first photodetector, and calculates a temperature of the target object from the calculated location of the interference.
