摘要: A defect inspection apparatus includes an illumination unit configured to irradiate a surface of a sample with a linear illumination spot; a condensing detection unit configured to condense reflected light of the illumination spot and to control a polarization state of the incident light to form an optical image; and a sensor unit configured to output the optical image and including an array-shaped light receiving portion and an antireflection film at a position conjugate with the illumination spot, in which the condensing detection unit includes a polarization control unit configured to increase light incident efficiency to the sensor unit. The normal line of the light receiving surface of the sensor unit is inclined from the optical axis of the condensing detection unit by 10 degrees or more and less than 80 degrees. The light condensing detection unit increases the optical magnification in the lateral direction of the illumination spot.

摘要: This illumination optical system comprises a laser light source 301, 401, 501, a light collection optical system 311, 411, 511, and a support structure 312, 412 that is able to secure the laser light source and the light collection optical system, wherein the light from the laser light source is focused onto an object to be inspected 307, 407, 507. The light collection optical system comprises a cylindrical mirror 306, 406, 506, and at least one cylindrical lens 304, 404a, 404b, 404c, 504a, 504b, 504c. The cylindrical mirror is an optical element that collects light in a first direction, and the cylindrical lens is an optical element that collects light in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The focal distance of the cylindrical lens to the object to be inspected is greater than the focal distance of the cylindrical mirror to the object to be inspected.

摘要: An object of the invention is to provide a defect inspection device capable of correcting image forming position deviation due to displacement of a sample surface in a Z direction while enabling image forming detection from a direction not orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of illumination. The detect inspection device according to the invention is configured to determine on which lens in a lens array scattered light is incident according to a detection elevation angle of the scattered light from a sample, and an image position of the scattered light having a small elevation angle is corrected more than an image position of the scattered light having a large elevation angle (see FIG. 19).

摘要: This defect inspection device for emitting illumination light onto a moving and rotating sample and inspecting for sample defects by scanning the sample in a spiral shape or concentric circle shapes comprises: an illumination and detection unit comprising an emission optical system and a detection optical system; a rotary stage for rotating the sample; a rectilinear stage for rectilinearly moving the rotary stage; and a controller for controlling the illumination and detection unit, rotary stage, and rectilinear stage. On the linear path of the rectilinear stage are a scanning start position where illumination light is emitted onto the sample and scanning is started and a sample delivery position where movement of the sample to the scanning start position starts. When the sample arrives at the scanning start position, the defect inspection device starts emitting the illumination light onto the sample without waiting for the rotation speed of the rotary stage to rise to a specified rotation speed for scanning and raises the rotation speed of the rotary stage to the specified rotation speed while scanning the sample.
