摘要： A reference substrate for defect detection sensitivity calibration has: patterns and programmed defective portions which are cone defects with different sizes and are formed at random on a silicon substrate. By using reference substrate for defect detection sensitivity calibration, it is possible to obtain an index, usable in manufacturing management, for determining sensitivity adjustment after a lamp is replaced in an illumination part of a defect inspection apparatus.

摘要： Scattered light from the surface of a sample subjected to the same process as a process for an inspection object is observed, a defect is detected from an intensity of scattered light, and a position of the detected defect and an intensity of scattered light caused by the detected defect are acquired. Defects detected are classified into a group detectable by observing secondary electrons emitted when an electron beam is applied to the surface of the sample and a group not detectable. A decision threshold value of a scattered light intensity for extracting defects to be counted is determined, in accordance with a result of classification by the above steps and the intensity of scattered light caused by the detected defect.

摘要： A semiconductor wafer whose position information on defects on a surface of the semiconductor wafer is already known, is placed on a stage of an imaging apparatus. Positions in a height direction of a plurality points on the surface of the semiconductor wafer are measured. In accordance with the measured positions in the height direction, the surface is partitioned into a plurality of partial areas. One partial area for which images of defects are still not acquired, is selected from the partial areas. The height of the stage is adjusted so as to set the selected partial area in an auto focusing range. Defects in the selected partial area are imaged with the imaging apparatus to acquire images of defects. Steps between the step of selecting the partial area and the step of acquiring the images of defects are repeated until images of defects in all partial areas are acquired.
