    • An apparatus of the invention is intended for multiple identical continuous records of characteristics on the surface of an object, e.g., a semiconductor wafer, after selected stages of manufacture and treatment. The apparatus is provided with a rotary table for rotation of the wafer with a mechanism for installing the wafer in a predetermined initial position for starting measurements from the same point after each selected stage of manufacture or treatment. The measurements are synchronized for all sequential manufacturing stages of the wafer and are carried out with the use of a resonance sensor based on the principles of resonance sensor technology. The recorded information is stored on a memory device, and if the final product has a defect or deviations, the stored information can be easily retrieved for revealing the time, place on the product, and the source of the defect. The same records can also be used for correlation between the defects or deviations and the failure of the final product on quality control and even during exploitation of the chip in a semiconductor device.

    • The system of the invention for measuring characteristics of thin conductive and non-conductive material, such as bulk material or films, is based on the use of a resonance oscillating circuit that incorporates at least two components selected from the group consisting of an inductive coil and a capacitor, which in combination form a sensor that could be approached close to the surface to be measured. The measurement of the film or material characteristics, such as film resistance (film thickness) or a dielectric constant (film thickness) of a non-conductive material, is based on the principle that the sensor is approached to the measured surface at a distance, at which the inductance and capacitance of the sensor generate in the measured material a virtual coil and an additional capacitance, which strongly depend on the characteristics of the measured material. As the sensor approached towards the surface to be measured, the sensor-material system generates a series of resonances having different values of power. One of these resonances can be defined as the so-called full resonance, which is characterized by the maximum value of the power, and hence provides the most accurate measurement and can be used for precisely determining the measurement distance. By comparing the results of measurements with those known from measuring the precalibrated films or materials under the same conditions, it becomes possible to determine the target characteristics of the films or materials.

    • An apparatus for measuring thickness in super-thin films consists of a special resonator unit in the form of an open-bottom cylinder which is connected to a microwave swept frequency microwave source via a decoupler and a matching unit installed in a waveguide that connects the resonator unit with the microwave source. The apparatus operates on the principle that thin metal film F, the thickness of which is to be measured, does not contact the end face of the open bottom of the cylindrical resonator sensor unit and functions as a bottom of the cylindrical body. The design of the resonator excludes generation of modes other than the resonance mode and provides the highest possible Q-factor. As the conductivity directly related to the film thickness, it is understood that measurement of the film thickness is reduced to measurement of the resonance peak amplitudes. This means that superhigh accuracy inherent in measurement of the resonance peaks is directly applicable to the measurement of the film thickness or film thickness deviations.
    • 用于测量超薄膜厚度的装置由开 - 底圆柱体形式的特殊谐振器单元组成,该谐振器单元经由去耦器连接到微波扫频频率微波源,并且匹配单元安装在将谐振器 单位与微波源。 该装置的工作原理是,其厚度要测量的薄金属薄膜F不与圆柱形谐振器传感器单元的开口底部的端面接触并用作圆柱体的底部。 谐振器的设计不包括谐振模式以外的模式的产生,并提供最高可能的Q因子。 作为与膜厚度直接相关的电导率,可以理解,膜厚度的测量减小到谐振峰值振幅的测量。 这意味着测量共振峰值固有的超高精度直接适用于膜厚度或膜厚偏差的测量。

    • A universal electromagnetic resonance system is aimed at detecting and measuring local non-uniformities in objects made from conductive or non-conductive materials. The system comprises a composite measuring unit composed of two identical and symmetrically arranged individual oscillation circuits with measurement elements in the form of identical and symmetrically arranged inductive coils or capacitor chips. The unit is connected to an impedance analyzer for supplying RF current and for measuring the voltage signal in the oscillation circuit. Since all the elements of individual oscillation circuits are identical, in the case of non-uniformity of the object on the scanned area, the parameters of the resonance will hanged. This change will violate the symmetry in the operation of the individual oscillation circuits. The variation in measured signal can be calibrated in terms of the target parameter or characteristic of the object.

    • The invention provides a method and apparatus for measuring temperature of a conductive film or coating on a non-conductive substrate or on a substrate having conductivity significantly lower than that of the film or coating. The temperature is measured with the use of an inductive sensor as at least one of electrical characteristics of the film or coating the relation of which with the temperature is known. The invention is intended for use in processes that involve heating of the conductive film or coating, e.g., annealing. The sensor is located on the side of the object-holding chuck opposite to the object but at a distance from the object that provides sensitivity of the sensor. A distinguishing feature of the invention is a shield formed from a layer of a dielectric-liquid that is permeable to electromagnetic waves but resistant to permeation of heat flow. This shield is arranged between the aforementioned conductive film or coating on a semiconductive substrate and the inductive sensor for shielding the sensor against influence of heat developed in the processing chamber. Preferably, the sensor is an inductive resonance-type sensor.
