Object lens 410, for that will measure, light is oblique to be mapped to overlay mark 411;
Reference marker, for generating reference light;
Detector 413 is located at 410 pupil plane of object lens, for detecting the difraction spectrum of overlay mark 411 and reference marker;
Rotatable workpiece platform 415, for carrying and rotating the reference marker and/or overlay mark 411.
The light that the light source 41 issues is incident to narrow band filter slice 43, obtains single after the collimation of collimatied beam mirror 42 The light of wavelength then passes through polarizing film 44, obtains linearly polarized light, which is incident to aperture diaphragm 45, generation meet into The hot spot of light shape requirements is penetrated, then light beam is incident to beam splitter 49 after the second lens 48, and a part is anti-by beam splitter 49 It penetrates as measurement light m, another part is directed through the beam splitter 49 and reflexes to detector 413 as monitoring through reflecting prism 414 Light s.Wherein, the generation diffraction of overlay mark 411, which is incident to, through object lens 410 after measurement light m is reflected by beam splitter 49 forms each main pole Big diffraction light, then received after object lens 410 and lens group 412 by detector 413, another beam is through beam splitter 49 and through reflecting rib The monitoring light s that mirror 414 reflects, is reflected, then received through lens group 412 by detector 413 by beam splitter 49.The measurement light m with It is as shown in Figure 5 to monitor position of the light s on detector 413.
From the foregoing, it will be observed that the measurement light m is with the difference for monitoring light s, if pass through object lens 410 and overlay mark 411. That is, influence of the disturbance of light source intensity to the two be it is synchronous, therefore, be normalized by the light intensity to the two, Influence of the disturbance to signal light intensity of light source intensity can be eliminated, (hereinafter indicated as light intensity disturbance normalization).The light intensity is disturbed Dynamic normalization except normalization and can divide exactly normalization two ways using point.It can specifically be selected according to the size of forcing frequency Suitable normalization mode, carries out a little except normalization when frequency is larger, otherwise carries out dividing exactly normalization.
