摘要:A method of examining thin layer structures on a surface for differences inrespect of optical thickness, which method comprises the steps of: irradiating the surfacewith light so that the light is internally or externally reflected at the surface; imaging thereflected light on a first two-dimensional detector; sequentially or continuously scanning
the incident angle and/or wavelength of the light over an angular and/or wavelengthrange; measuring the intensities of light reflected from different parts of the surface andimpinging on different parts of the detector, at at least a number of incident anglesand/or wavelengths, the intensity of light reflected from each part of the surface foreach angle and/or wavelength depending on the optical thickness of the thin layerstructure thereon; and determining from the detected light intensities at the differentlight incident angles and/or wavelengths an optical thickness image of the thin layerstructures on the surface. According to the invention, part of the light reflected at saidsurface is detected on a second detector to determine the incident angle or wavelengthof the polarized light irradiating the surface. An apparatus for carrying out the method isalso disclosed.
