CCD camera 32 is colored CCD camera, and CCD each pixel performance is three kinds of colors of red, green, blue, will be with CCD The identical quantity of resolution ratio of camera 32 is a pair of digital independent into memory 62 with (red, green, blue).
Defects detection portion 65 is with reference to the image read in memory 62, to detect defect.The seat of the defects of detected Scale value is sent to control computer 39.
The defects of control computer 39 is based on receiving coordinate, obtains the movement of X-axis workbench 37 and Y-axis workbench 38 Coordinate, move viewing optical system 31.In addition, in the following description, also can be total by X-axis workbench 37 and Y-axis workbench 38 Referred to as XY worktable.
[defects detection action]
Defects detection portion 65 is handled with order as shown below perform detection.
In placing substrate 5, control computer 39 from the check device being provided separately with defect correction device 100 (not Diagram) defective locations information is received, the movement to defective locations is completed before detection process.
However, the XY worktable of check device and defect correction device 100 can because machining accuracy, assembly precision difference and Produce error so that even if viewing optical system 31 is moved into the position shown by check device, as shown in figure 5, also not Necessarily can be by the picture center of defect location to monitor 40.In addition, according to defect size, as shown in fig. 6, sometimes also can nothing Method is completely into in picture.
Due to the above situation, in defects detection portion 65, judge whether to be capable of detecting when the general image of defect, and as schemed Shown in 7, spirally search for around initial picture.Numbering in Fig. 7 represents the order scanned for.That is, in Fig. 7, compile Number " 1 " scans for equivalent to initial picture, and according to increased order is numbered.
Image-capturing positions operational part 67 calculates searching position.If the pattern spacing of substrate 5 is set into (w, h), will examine The visual field for looking into the middle object lens 2 used is sized to (Sw, Sh), and the lap between picture is set into V, then as shown in figure 8, when figure When case spacing is h < w, calculate searching position to cause the distance between upper picture in longitudinal direction for h, in transverse direction between picture away from From for Sw-V.As h >=w, searching position is calculated to cause laterally for w, longitudinal direction is Sh-V.
In present embodiment, in order to extract the general image of defect, as shown in figure 9, generating one of Fig. 7 to photographing Individual or multiple images synthesized after panoramic picture, and checked using the panoramic picture generated.As described later, it is right The respective color signal of red, green, blue and luminance signal generate panoramic picture.
In addition, in defect extraction unit 71, it is assumed that the existing defects in the pattern in center, examined using repeat patterns inspection technique Survey defect, the repeat patterns inspection technique by two upper and lower or adjacent left and right patterns be set to normal pattern come it is more mutual dense It is light.
Therefore, the precondition of panoramic picture is:As h < w, the size of longitudinal direction is at least 3 × more than h, horizontal as h >=w To size be at least 3 × more than w.Here, the life of panoramic picture when showing to check h < w pattern Fig. 7 picture " 1 " Into example.
As shown in Figure 10, the coordinate value of the XY worktable during image taking of current picture is set to (xc, yc) in advance, will The coordinate value of XY worktable during the image taking of adjacent two pictures up and down is set to (x1, y1), (x2, y2).In addition, The coordinate value of XY worktable is shown as (tx, ty) on image all the time.(tx, ty) is generally consistent with the optical axis of object lens 2.In addition, figure In 10, although the coordinate value of XY worktable and the coordinate value of image refer to same position, because the coordinate of XY worktable is former Point is different from the origin of coordinates of image, therefore coordinate value is different in itself.
In addition, the resolution ratio of image is set to (M, N) in advance, and by the XY worktable suitable with image pixel Amount of movement is set to (mx, my).(mx, my) is determined by the object lens 2 used in image taking.
First, the coordinate value of the left upper end of each image, XY worktable at bottom righthand side is obtained.
[the left upper end coordinate value of current search position]
(Xclu, yclu)=(Xc-tx × mx, yc-ty × my)
[the bottom righthand side coordinate value of current search position]
(Xcrb, ycrb)=(Xc+(M-tx)× mx, yc+(N-ty)× my)
[the left upper end coordinate value of side adjacency search position]
(X1lu, y1lu)=(X1-tx × mx, y1-ty × my)
[the bottom righthand side coordinate value of side adjacency search position]
(X1rb, y1rb)=(X1+(M-tx)× mx, y1+(N-ty)× my)
[the left upper end coordinate value of opposite side adjacency search position]
(X2lu, y2lu)=(X2-tx × mx, y2-ty × my)
[the bottom righthand side coordinate value of opposite side adjacency search position]
(X2rb, y2rb)=(X2+(M-tx)× mx, y2+(N-ty)× my)
Next, minimum or maximum coordinate value is obtained from calculated coordinate value.
[min coordinates value]
(Minx, miny)
=(Min(Xclu, x1lu, x2lu), Min(Yclu, y1lu, y2lu))
[maximum coordinate value among]
(Maxx, maxy)
=(Max(Xcrb, x1rb, x2rb), Max(Ycrb, y1rb, y2rb))
Here, Min () is the function for the minimum value for returning to the value in bracket.Max () is the function for returning to maximum.
The resolution ratio (Mp, Np) of panoramic picture is obtained by following formula.
(Mp, Np)=((Maxx-minx)/ mx,(Maxy-miny)/ my)
Prepare Mp × Np of storage panoramic image data array, the position calculated by following formula is set to left upper end, to each View data on searching position is replicated.The resolution ratio of the view data replicated is M × N.
[the upper left end position of the view data of current search position]
(Xclu-minx)/ mx-tx,(Yclu-miny)/ my-ty
[the upper left end position of the view data of side adjacency search position]
(X1lu-minx)/ mx-tx,(Y1lu-miny)/ my-ty
[the upper left end position of the view data of opposite side adjacency search position]
(X2lu-minx)/ mx-tx,(Y2lu-miny)/ my-ty
According to Fig. 7 search order and utilization side images, i.e. including defective part image and defect periphery image Multiple images generate panoramic picture, be confirmed whether to detect the general image of defect and terminate at the time of being capable of detecting when Search.
The judgement of the general image of defect is carried out as described below.On the side up and down of the bounding rectangle of defect When the length L to connect with picture boundaries is bigger than pre-determined length Lmin, it is judged as connecting, and continues search for.Than Lmin Hour end processing.
[comparison of view data and defect extraction]
The original digital image data of panoramic picture is generated by image converter section 68.Image converter section 68 is from reading in memory 62 Color image data in extract red (r), green (g), blue (b) respective color signal (colouring information), generate three width images Data r, g, b.The resolution ratio of each width image is M × N.In addition, generated according to the data of three width images and for example based on following formula Equivalent to luminance signal (monochrome information) G of brightness of image, data r, g, b, G of generation four width images altogether.
If a certain position on image is set to (x, y), then the data G (x, y) of the position (x, y) on image G is:
G(X, y)
=0.299 × r(X, y)+ 0.587 × g(X, y)+ 0.114 × b(X, y).
In addition, conversion method is not limited to above formula, such as it can also use the maximum in (red, green, blue).
Panoramic picture generating unit 69 copies to r, g, b, G for being generated the array of data of four Mp × Np panoramic picture In.As described above, the position calculated by following formula is set into left upper end, the view data on each searching position is replicated.
[the upper left end position of the view data of current search position]
(Xclu-minx)/ mx-tx,(Yclu-miny)/ my-ty
[the upper left end position of the view data of side adjacency search position]
(X1lu-minx)/ mx-tx,(Y1lu-miny)/ my-ty
[the upper left end position of the view data of opposite side adjacency search position]
(X2lu-minx)/ mx-tx,(Y2lu-miny)/ my-ty
Above-mentioned four panoramic image datas generated like that are set to Pr, Pg, Pb, PG in advance.Next, image comparing section 70 remove periodic component from Pr, Pg, Pb, PG view data.
The example of the comparison processing in the picture " 1 " for performing Fig. 7 when pattern spacing is h < w is shown in Figure 11.In advance A certain image in Pr, Pg, Pb, PG is set to f, and ph is set to by spacing is compared.Here, it is set to the level for panoramic picture Position x a-b sections are compared processing.That is, it is respective complete in the color signal and luminance signal generated based on repetition interval In scape view data, to arbitrary check point compared with its peripheral part.
If the view data of the upright position y on a-b sections is set into f (x, y), then using the data as check object, And s-p (x, y) and s+p (x, y) is obtained, to be used as data f (x, y-ph) and f (x, y+ph) by following formula.
S-p(X, y)=f(X, y)- f(X, y-ph)
S+p(X, y)=f(X, y)- f(X, y+ph)
Check the inspection and judge check point whether than just for being divided into and judging whether check point is more darker than normal portions The normal brighter inspection in position both carry out.Will storage whether the image of darker judged result is set to dk, will storage whether The image of brighter judged result is set to br.
On dk, at s-p (x, y)<(that is, check point compares periphery in the case that s+p (x, y) symbol is also consistent when 0 The darker situation in position), will | s-p (x, y) | and | s+p (x, y) | in a less side be set to dk (x, y).
On br, at s-p (x, y)>(that is, check point compares periphery in the case that s+p (x, y) symbol is also consistent when 0 The brighter situation in position), will | s-p (x, y) | and | s+p (x, y) | in a less side be set to br (x, y).
Above-mentioned processing is carried out for image f all (x, y).
The comparison processing in the picture " 1 " of Fig. 7 when pattern spacing is h >=w is performed in Figure 12.By in Pr, Pg, Pb, PG A certain image be set to f, spacing will be compared and be set to pw.Here, it is set to enter for the upright position y of panoramic picture a-b sections Row is relatively handled.
If the view data of the horizontal level x on a-b sections is set into f (x, y) in advance, then using the data as inspection pair As, and s-p (x, y) and s+p (x, y) is obtained, to be used as data f (x-pw, y) and f (x+pw, y) by following formula.
S-p(X, y)=f(X, y)- f(X-pw, y)
S+p(X, y)=f(X, y)- f(X+pw, y)
Check the inspection and judge check point whether than just for being divided into and judging whether check point is more darker than normal portions The normal brighter inspection in position both carry out.Will storage whether the image of darker judged result is set to dk, will storage whether The image of brighter judged result is set to br.
On dk, at s-p (x, y)<In the case that s+p (x, y) symbol is also consistent when 0, will | s-p (x, y) | and | s+p (x, y) | in a less side be set to dk (x, y).
On br, at s-p (x, y)>In the case that s+p (x, y) symbol is also consistent when 0, will | s-p (x, y) | and | s+p (x, y) | in a less side be set to br (x, y).
Above-mentioned processing is carried out for image f all (x, y).
The image after removing periodic component is shown in Figure 13.By observing accompanying drawing, defective part is only extracted.
In above-mentioned relatively processing, (pw, ph) represents the comparison spacing of data, is calculated by following formula.
Pw=w/mx
Ph=h/my
Because image is discrete data, therefore (pw, ph) rounds numerical value.Thus, when (pw, the ph) of above formula is not integer Error can be produced, different positions can be strictly compared each other.This turns into doubtful in the generation of the border of pattern The main reason for defect, if borderline brightness changes greatly, the doubtful of line segment shape for example shown in Figure 14 is produced sometimes Defect.
In order to not produce the those suspected defects of this line segment shape, also can be adjacent with the pixel used in comparison or neighbouring Comparison brightness between pixel, when their difference value is more than a certain threshold value just without comparing.
Will be dark to being shown in image dk, br after image Pr, Pg, Pb, PG removing periodic component, relative to normal portion The image of defect is set to dPr, dPg, dPb, dPG, and the image for showing the defects of brighter is set into bPr, bPg, bPb, bPG.
According to the image dk after image Pr, Pg, Pb, PG removing periodic component, the figure eventually for extraction defect is generated As pdk.If a certain position on image is set to (x, y), then the data pdk (x, y) at the same position on image pdk is:
Pdk(X, y)
=Max(DkPr(X, y), dkPg(X, y), dkPb(X, y), dkPG(X, y)).
In addition, according to the image br after image Pr, Pg, Pb, PG removing periodic component, generate eventually for extraction defect Image pbr.If a certain position on image is set to (x, y), then the data pbr (x, y) at the same position on image pbr For:
Pbr(X, y)
=Max(BrPr(X, y), brPg(X, y), brPb(X, y), brPG(X, y)).
As described above, generation shows the image pdk of the defects of dark relative to normal portion and shows the figure of the defects of brighter As pbr.That is, any check point and peripheral part by each color signal and each luminance signal in panoramic image data It is compared, larger contrast is selected from comparative result.Here, the contrast all bigger than other any one contrasts is used As the contrast between check point and peripheral part.
Although in addition, general in inspection can use the PG for representing brightness of image mostly, also deposited according to object difference The situation of higher contrast is shown in Pr, Pg, Pb than PG, due to using maximum therein to enter with higher sensitivity Row detection, therefore used function Max ().
Defect extraction unit 71 is extracted based on image pdk, the pbr generated by image comparing section 70 and using binary conversion treatment Go out defective part.As an example, by the data pdk (x, y) of image pdk position (x, y) compared with threshold value Tdk, when Pdk (x, y) value is set to 1 when larger, be set to 0 when smaller, thus generates binary image Bdk.Similarly, by image The data pbr (x, y) of pbr position (x, y) is set to " 1 " when pbr (x, y) value is larger compared with threshold value Tbr, when " 0 " is set to when smaller, thus generates binary image Bbr.
For the binary image Bdk and Bbr being generated as above, value is extracted by known mark processing etc. The Connected component of " 1 ", go out the inside of the bounding rectangle as defect candidate extraction.The image to Figure 13 is shown in Figure 15 Extraction result.Dotted line frame in figure is bounding rectangle.
If the length and width dimensions of calculated bounding rectangle are set into (rw, rh), by minimum extraction size be set to (rwmin, Rhmin), then the Connected component of following formula will be met as defect.
(Rw+rh)/ 2 >=(Rwmin+rhmin)/ 2
Wherein, above-mentioned decision condition and this need not be defined in, the characteristic of defect can be also taken into account, extract example Such as meet rw >=rwmin and rh >=rhmin Connected component, meet rw >=rwmin or rh >=rhmin Connected component.
Defect coordinate operational part 72 obtains the coordinate of XY worktable using the bounding rectangle of defect.If by circumscribed rectangular The left upper end coordinate of shape is set to (rx, ry), then its centre coordinate (cx, cy) is obtained by following formula.
(Cx, cy)=(Rx+rw/2, ry+rh/2)
As shown in figure 16, because the coordinate of the XY worktable of the left upper end opening position of panoramic picture is (minx, miny), and Image coordinate on the position is (0,0), and the amount of movement of the XY worktable suitable with a pixel of image is (mx, my), because In addition the coordinate of the XY worktable of spreading square central is obtained by following formula.
(Minx+mx × cx, miny+my × cy)
Moved by control instruction generating unit (not shown) to generate the above-mentioned coordinate calculated to defect coordinate operational part 72 Dynamic move, and same position control section (not shown) is output to, so as to complete the movement to defective locations.
In embodiment above, although having used the respective color signal of red, green, blue from the input of colored CCD camera, But HSV colour systems can also be used, the HSV colour systems can be converted to by these color signals.
In HSV colour systems, V is referred to as lightness, represents the brightness of image.In rgb value, if minimum value is set into fmin, will Maximum is set to fmax, then brightness V be expressed as V=fmax.In addition, H is referred to as form and aspect, S is referred to as chroma, is calculated by following formula.
[defect correction]
After defective locations are moved to, staff confirms the defects of monitor 40 is shown, passes through guidance panel 41, key The operation of disk, mouse carrys out Introduced Malaria condition to be modified operation.
When being modified operation, remove defective part using cutting with laser aid 33 and be coated with using ink Mechanism 34 is to the operation for being partially filled with ink after removing.
For staff after completing to correct operation, instruction is moved to next defective locations.And then secondary repetition is above-mentioned Use the processing after the digital independent of CCD camera 32.If to the processing of all defect that is received from check device etc. all It has been completed that, then a series of operation is accomplished.
[automatic laser irradiation]
