    摘要: An inspection system and method for inspecting the surface defects of the specimen is provided. The inspection system includes a laser focus module, a microscope objective module, an image pick-up module, and a process module. The laser focus module configured to emit laser beam on the specimen by a predetermined angle relative to a surface of the specimen, and to generate scattered light and reflected light when the laser beam irradiates on the surface defects of the specimen. The process module can calculate the real size of the defects by using the intensity information obtained from the image pick-up module and the microscope objective module or using the diameter information obtained from the reflected light image while the reflected light projects on a screen.

    摘要: The present invention provides an inspection method for inspecting defects of wafer surface. The method includes: encircling peripheral region of the wafer surface by a first light source set and a second light source set; using a control module to control the first light source set and the second light source set to irradiate the light alternately from different directions; using an image pick-up module to receive a scattered light image during each time when the first light source set or the second light source set irradiates the light on the wafer surface; and then using a process module to obtain an enhanced and clear defect image of wafer surface by processing each of the scattered light images.
