The reference signal is compared with the measured data signal of the pattern area and its peripheral area.

    摘要: A photomask on which a circuit pattern is drawn is placed on an x-y table and is illuminated by a light source. A linear image sensor, on which the circuit pattern is imaged, measures the circuit pattern along the direction substantially perpendicular to a moving direction of the x-y table to generate an analog signal in units of measured positions on the mask. In order to eliminate the need for matching the size of the pixel to be measured with the pixel size of the design pattern data and allow effective detection of a defect smaller than the pixel size, an analog-to-digital converter is arranged to convert the analog signal to multi-level digital data, and a measured point calculation circuit calculates the position of the measured point in units smaller than the pixel size unit in accordance with the position of the x-y table. A reference data calculation circuit is provided to calculate multi-level reference digital data which is to be obtained when the design pattern is measured at a calculated measured point taking sensitivity distribution characteristics (including resolution characteristics of lens) of image sensor elements into consideration. A defect detector compares the measured data with the reference data to detect the presence or absence of defects of the circuit pattern on the photomask.
