摘要:
A method and apparatus for determining the characteristics of materials, particularly of semi-conductors, semi-conductor heterostructures and semi-conductor interfaces by the use of photoreflectance, in which monochromatic light and modulated light beam reflected from the sample is detected to produce a d.c. signal and an a.c. signal, whereby the d.c. signal is applied to one input of a computer and the a.c. signal is used with another input of the computer which controls the light intensity of the monochromatic light impinging on the sample to maintain the d.c. signal substantially constant. A stepping motor is preferably utilized for varying the light intensity of the monochromatic light. Additionally, the modulation frequency of the modulated beam and/or the wavelength of the monochromatic light can also be varied by the computer. Growth conditions of semi-conductor materials as well as information about trap times can be obtained by analyzing the energy band gaps and determining the dependence of the in-phase photoreflectance signal on the pump modulating frequency, respectively.

A stepping motor is preferably utilized for varying the light intensity of the monochromatic light which is controlled by a computer to re-establish rapidly a predetermined d.c. signal established during normalization procedures when the light intensity of the monochromatic light changes, especially during change of its wavelength. Additionally, the modulation frequency of the modulated beam and/or the wavelength of the monochromatic light can also be varied by the computer.

A photometer is providing including light detecting means for detecting incident light and generating electric signals in response thereto as a measure of the incident light thereon, and optical means for guiding light to the light detecting means from a standard light source in a calibration mode and from an object, a photometric quantity of which is to be measured, in a measurement mode. Control means are adapted to generate calibration control signals for carrying out a calibration mode wherein a photometric quantity value Dstd of the standard light source and a measured value Rstd corresponding to the intensity of the standard light source detected by the light detecting means are stored in a memory, and light measurement control signals for carrying out a measurement mode wherein a photometric quantity value Rm corresponding to the photometric quantity of the object measured by the light detecting means is also stored in memory such that a CPU or similar computing means can communicate with the memory and compute a photometric quantity value R of the object according to the formulaR=Rm.times.(Dstd/Rstd).

An apparatus and method for measuring fluorescence of a sample is described. An apparatus includes three or more fluorescence channels passing through a sample site. The three or more fluorescence channels allow for exposing a sample at the sample site to light from three or more light sources, which results in fluorescence measurements based on emissions from the sample in response to the three or more light sources.

A method for in-situ determination by photoreflectance of the Fermi level (V.sub.F) at the surfaces or interfaces of GaAs and related materials, in which a probe beam of monochromatic light and a modulated pump beam from a pump source are directed onto a sample, and the measured barrier height V.sub.m =V.sub.F -V.sub.S is obtained from the information in the reflected light, where V.sub.S represents the surface voltage effects on the sample by the photoreflectance, whereby V.sub.m approaches V.sub.F as V.sub.S approaches zero during repeated tests in which a parameter such as temperature affecting the numerical value of V.sub.S is changed until there is flattening of the curve illlustrating V.sub.m as a function of the parameter.
