Abstract: An inspection apparatus includes: a light source that generates and outputs light; a stage on which an inspection target is arranged; an irradiation optical system that irradiates light from the light source to the inspection target; a detector that receives the light diffracted from the inspection target and generates diffraction image; and a detector moving device configured to move the detector on a z-axis, which is an optical axis of the light, and an x-y plane perpendicular to the z-axis. Furthermore, while the detector moves on the x-y plane and the z-axis through the detector moving device, the detector generates a plurality of the diffraction images with different positions on the x-y plane and the z-axis with respect to the inspection target, and thus simultaneously implements phase retrieval and super resolution of diffraction images.

Abstract: An example semiconductor measurement apparatus includes a light source, a pattern generator, a stage, an image sensor, and a controller. The light source is configured to output light in a predetermined wavelength band. The pattern generator is configured to generate light including a speckle pattern by scattering the light output from the light source. The stage is disposed on a movement path of the light including the speckle pattern, and a sample reflecting the light including the speckle pattern is seated on the stage. The image sensor is configured to receive light reflected from the sample and generate an original image representing a diffractive pattern of light reflected from the sample. The controller is configured to generate a prediction image for estimating diffractive characteristics of light incident on the image sensor.

Abstract: A substrate inspection apparatus includes a light irradiator including an objective lens and a plurality of optical fibers. The objective lens is configured to irradiate light to an illumination area on a semiconductor substrate having a plurality of circuit pattern layers, the plurality of optical fibers are adjacent a periphery of the objective lens and are configured to irradiate the light to a peripheral area adjacent the illumination area. A light generator is configured to generate the light. The light generator is configured to change an irradiation angle of the light to selectively irradiate the light to one or more of the objective lens and the plurality of optical fibers. A light analyzer is configured to obtain images of the circuit pattern layers from the light reflected from the illumination area and the peripheral area. The light analyzer is configured to model each of the circuit pattern layers of the semiconductor substrate to obtain image models and to measure an overlay between the circuit pattern layers through the images and the image models.
