Optical scatterometry with relaxed model constraints
Optical scatterometry extracts structural and material properties of nanostructures from optical signal by solving the optical inverse problems (OIPs). It typically requires prior information for the establishment of structural models. Existing modeling methods are almost based on strict model constraints, which may oversimplify structural details ...

Measuring multiple nano-textured areas simultaneously with imaging scatterometry
Periodic nano- Textured surfaces have been characterised using the new optical imaging scatterometry technique. A major benefit of imaging scatterometry compared to traditional scatterometry is that an area much smaller than the illuminated area can be ...
