摘要： Method for measuring the time dependence of an oscillating field gradient and representatively its integral function with respect to time for imaging method using the field gradient such as rapid chemical shift imaging method echo planar method, etc. A uniform specimen is placed within a coil of an NMR device, in which nuclear spins are excited; a phase encoding field gradient is applied thereto; and signals are sampled under application of the field gradient to be measured. These steps are repeated and an integral function of the field gradient with respect to time is obtained by using the peak position in the series of data obtained by this repetition.

摘要： Light from a light source becomes two illumination beams by a beam splitter. The beams are irradiated onto a semiconductor wafer from two mutually substantially orthogonal azimuthal angles having substantially equal elevation angles to form illumination spots. When the sum of scattered, diffracted, and reflected lights due to the illumination beams is detected, influence of the anisotropy which a contaminant particle and a defect existing in the wafer itself or thereon have with respect to an illumination direction, can be eliminated.

摘要： When detecting light scattered by an object to be inspected by using a pulse laser as a light source, noise increases unless a sampling repletion period of an A/D converter is determined so as to be related to a pulse oscillation repetition period of the light source. (1) The sampling repletion period of the A/D converter is set equal to the pulse oscillation repetition period of the light source or an integer times thereof, and the sampling is synchronized with oscillation of the light source. Or (2) the sampling repletion period of the A/D converter is set equal to a half-integer times the pulse oscillation repetition period of the light source. Even if a ripple component resulting from emission pulses of the light source remains in the scattered light signal supplied to the A/D converter remains, therefore, its influence can be eliminated or reduced.

摘要： If an illuminance of a measurement spot is limited in order to prevent heat damage on an article to be inspected, since detection sensitivity and a detection speed are in a relation of trade-off, it is difficult to improve one of them without sacrificing the other or to improve both of them. Also, there is a problem that the detection sensitivity is lowered on an outer circumference portion than on an inner circumference portion of the article to be inspected.A plurality of measurement units comprising an illumination optics, a measurement spot, a collection optics, and a light detection optics are provided, inspection results obtained from the plurality of measurement spots are integrated, and light-amount distribution to each measurement spot is controlled according to a scan radial position.

The apparatus illuminates with light the specimen having the pattern formed thereon, forms an image of the specimen on an image sensor through a reflective optics, and determines the existence/nonexistence of a defect. The reflective optics has a conjugate pair of Fourier transform optics. An aberration of the reflective optics is corrected off-axis. The reflective optics has a field of view in non-straight-line slit form on the specimen surface. Also, the optics is of a reflection type, includes a conjugate pair of Fourier transform optics and has a field of view in non-straight-line slit form. An optimum wavelength band is selected according to the specimen (FIG. 1).

摘要： In the conventional methods for enhancing defect detection sensitivity by improving the resolving power, if a microscopic pattern, which is a high spatial-frequency structure as is the case with a microscopic defect, has become the brightest portion, the gray-scale contrast of the microscopic defect will be enhanced. At the same time, however, the gray-scale contrast of the microscopic pattern will also be enhanced simultaneously. Consequently, there has existed a problem that it is impossible to enhance the microscopic-defect detection sensitivity further than that. In the present invention, an aperture stop which is divided into a plurality of small apertures is located on an illumination pupil plane. Then, light-shield/light-transmission for each small aperture is controlled independently of each other. This control allows an inspection-target object to be illuminated at only an incident angle at which the gray-scale contrast of the microscopic defect will be emphasized more sharply.
摘要翻译：在通过提高分辨能力来提高缺陷检测灵敏度的常规方法中，如果与微观缺陷一样的高空间频率结构的微观图案已经成为最亮部分，则灰度对比度微观缺陷将得到加强。然而，同时，微观图案的灰度对比度也将同时提高。因此，存在不可能进一步提高微观缺陷检测灵敏度的问题。在本发明中，分割成多个小孔的孔径光阑位于照明光瞳平面上。然后，彼此独立地控制每个小孔的遮光/透光。该控制允许仅在更明显地强调微观缺陷的灰度对比度的入射角度照射检查对象物体。

摘要： A method and equipment which includes an illustrated-spot illumination-distribution data table for storing an illumination distribution within an illustrated spot and which calculates a coordinate position for a particle or a defect and the diameter of the particle on the basis of detection light intensity data about the particle or defect and the illustrated-spot illumination-distribution data table. Thus, even when the illumination distribution within the illustrated spot based on an actual illumination optical system is not a Gaussian distribution, the calculation of the particle diameter of the detected particle or defect and the calculation of a coordinate position on the surface of an object to be inspected can be attained with an increased accuracy.
