Embodiment
Below, this method will be explained with reference to accompanying drawing.
1) launch white light from air to film to be measured using white light emitter, refraction reflected light is obtained in signal acquisition region Line obtains one group of original WLRS signal;
Specially:As shown in Figure 1, beam of white light A by white light emitter with incident angle α from air directive film to be measured, Wherein incident angle α is less than ± 5 °.Light is in upper and lower interface S1、S2Refraction reflection is repeated, finally will in signal acquisition region Light B after refraction reflection repeatedly1、B2、…、Bn, by the phase difference of the light collected, draw one group of original WLRS signal.
2) training set, setting training time are introduced after one group of original WLRS signal obtained by step 1 is normalized Number, training objective error;
Specially:Original WLRS signals generally are the data between 0-1, but due to may caused by noise jamming and Other reasonses may make the WLRS signals obtained by calculating excessive or too small, and in order to prevent the above situation, WLRS is returned One change is handled, and its formula is:
Wherein, S*For the WLRS signal datas after normalization, S is WLRS primary signals, SmaxAnd SminRespectively WLRS is former Maximum and minimum value in beginning signal data.
It is 1000 to set frequency of training, and training objective error is 0.001, when neural metwork training number reaches frequency of training Or when the error after training is less than training objective error with regard to deconditioning, the forecast model after output training.
3) L-M Optimized BP Neural Network training is carried out using to the data in the training set obtained by step 2, it is determined that prediction mould The hidden layer number of plies, each node in hidden layer, hidden layer transfer function and the output layer transfer function of type;
Specially:Because application involved in the present invention is nonlinear system, therefore use L-M algorithm amendment BP neural networks Weights, its specific formula are:
Δ ω=(JT+μI)-1JTe (2)
Wherein, e represents error vector of the neutral net for several times after iteration, and e specific formula is:
E=[e1,e2,...,en]T (3)
Wherein e1、e2、…enRespectively BP neural network the 1st time, the 2nd time ..., the error of nth iteration.
J represents error eiTo neural network weight ωiThe Jacobian matrix of differential, wherein i=1,2 ..., n, represent nerve The iterations of network.
J can specifically be tried to achieve by equation below:
μ is the positive integer of a value very little, and I is unit matrix.
In application involved in the present invention, it is 1 layer generally to set the implicit number of plies, in actual applications also can be according to reality Need necessarily to adjust the hidden layer number of plies.
Node in hidden layer is set according to data volume situation, in order to reach flat between pace of learning and simulation data error Weighing apparatus, node in hidden layer is typically arranged to 5 for application of the present invention, also can be according to being actually needed to hidden layer section Points are necessarily adjusted.
The hidden layer transfer function for setting forecast model is logsig functions, and its specific formula is:
Wherein, y is the output of hidden layer transfer function, and x is the input of hidden layer transfer function.
The output layer transfer function for setting forecast model is purelin functions, and its specific formula is:
Y=x (6)
Wherein, y is the output of output layer transfer function, and x is the input of output layer transfer function.
The BP neural network structure chart of L-M optimized algorithms is as shown in Figure 3.
4) emulation is predicted to the WLRS models of training gained, the WLRS curves after being fitted;
Specially:Because the WLRS models obtained by step 3 are to be trained study by the curve after normalizing, so output Also should be the matched curve after normalization, so renormalization processing need to be done to curve.But due to WLRS curve reflectivity The general all boundaries of value between 0 and 1, acquired characteristic value is unrelated with WLRS curve actual sizes in step 5, it is merely meant that phase To magnitude relationship, therefore neutral net can be fitted to prediction curve directly as final curves.
5) to the WLRS curve acquisition characteristic values after fitting, the film thickness corresponding to the curve is judged by characteristic value.
Specially:WLRS curves after fitting are considered as the WLRS curves obtained by actual film thickness, after fitting Optical wavelength corresponding to the minimum point of WLRS curves is set to characteristic value, and characteristic value is closed with film thickness to be measured there is linear System, the thickness of film to be measured can be quickly obtained by this feature value.
Implementation process figure of the present invention as shown in Figure 4, present invention will be further expalined by example below, Here exemplified by film thickness will be used as 210.4nm WLRS.Silicon single crystal wafer is by environment power frequency in being measured due to live reality There is some difference etc. that reason, original WLRS signals are disappeared by noise for noise, tested film purity, and curve has larger hair Thorn, as dynamically measured in accompanying drawing 5 shown in white light reflectance spectrum, what is represented in accompanying drawing 5 is specific contaminated WLRS Dynamic Signals When film thickness to be measured is all 210.4nm, by noise when the matched curve of L-M algorithms, static measurement curve and dynamic measure The contrast effect of interference curve.Wherein, algorithm matched curve is represented that static measurement WLRS curves are illustrated by the broken lines by solid line, and Dynamically contaminated curve is then represented by.The primitive curve that step 1 of the present invention is obtained is that dynamically measurement is got dirty in accompanying drawing 5 Shown in the curve of dye, it can be seen that though by influence of noise, dynamic measure the still middle numerical value of WLRS curves be still within 0-1 it Between, but for the ease of calculating and uniformly, therefore still performance graph is normalized.Curve after normalization is subjected to L- M neural metwork trainings, set:
1) it is 1 to imply the number of plies;
2) node in hidden layer is 5;
3) hidden layer transfer function is logsig functions;
4) output layer transfer function is purelin functions;
5) frequency of training 1000;
6) training objective error is 0.001.
WLRS models are drawn after training, WLRS is emulated, obtain the WLRS curves after the fitting of L-M algorithms, it is specific bent Line is shown in L-M algorithms matched curve in accompanying drawing 5, and digital simulation root-mean-square error (Mean Squared Error, MSE) is 0.0097, formula is:
Wherein TiFor static measurement data, Y corresponding to every group of WLRS curveiTo be fitted output data, N is fitting gained Output data is counted.
Still there is certain burr by the visible algorithm matched curve of accompanying drawing 5, and static measurement data are then relatively smooth, but by It is the wavelength corresponding to minimum point in characteristic value, the fluctuation of small range, therefore can be with to asking for the result difference of characteristic value and little Ignore the small range fluctuation of matched curve.
Matched curve characteristic value finally is asked for, single-point feature value does not possess persuasive ability, so multiple points will be taken to algorithm Quality is analyzed.As shown in Figure 6, the eigenvalue of curve in the range of certain film thickness after (200-250nm) fitting with The contrast of eigenvalue of curve before fitting, it can intuitively find out after being fitted there is obvious linear relationship before curve comparison fitting.When Only it is merely so that observation directly perceived can not illustrate whole issue, here by using root-mean-square error (the Root Mean with fitting a straight line Square Error, RMSE) analyze the linear degrees of three curves as index quantification, its formula is:
Wherein Xobs,iWith Xmodel,iRespectively observation and theoretical true value.It is attached in this example, observation is three in figure The actual characteristic value of curve, and theoretical true value is then to pass through the characteristic value corresponding to the straight line of least square fitting.N is sample Point quantity.
It can be calculated by formula 8, the higher crystal characteristic value of dynamic experiment curv, the matched curve of L-M algorithms, purity is bent The RMSE of line is respectively 102.8831,24.5156,7.881.It can be seen that the linear degree of L-M algorithms and the higher crystal of purity Static measurement curve is compared also there is a certain distance, but compared to the result of dynamic experiment curv, is then had larger Improve.It can be found that the eigenvalue graph after L-M algorithms relatively connects with dynamic experiment curv in height by Fig. 6 simultaneously Closely, this be due to the purity of crystal it is inadequate caused by, illustrate that L-M algorithms have certain adaptability.Can be with by above-mentioned result Illustrate that the present invention has preferable effect.
