Background technology
Be formed at the existing method of the broken string, short circuit etc. of the circuitous pattern on the circuit substrate as inspection, useful spring probe forms unit clamp, and the pad that makes anchor clamps gather the contact circuit figure carries out the method for electric checking.In the method, when the circuitous pattern that the pad number of checking in recent years increases, need the spring probe of a plurality of costlinesses, the cost of unit clamp raises.In addition,, be difficult to guarantee physically and the contact of pad, also exist because of contacting the pad damage problem that sharp spring probe causes because of the densification of pad.
In addition,, have from a pad, be connected to the situation of a plurality of pads circuitous pattern branch for circuit substrate.Under such situation, there is the problem of the supervision time lengthening of broken string, short circuit.
And, with regard to circuit substrate, a plurality of circuitous patterns are formed on which floor, but in the method that makes the spring probe contact pad, can not check broken string, the short circuit of the circuitous pattern of this Mulitilayer circuit board.
From such background, expect to have the method for the voltage distribution of optical detection circuitous pattern.As the example in the past of using electric optical effect to come the voltage of measuring circuit figure to distribute, the electronic unit that has (Japan) spy to open to disclose in the flat 9-72947 communique be welded to connect detection method and pick-up unit.This method use electrooptics sensor detects the electric field intensity of ad-hoc location non-contactly, thus the state that is welded to connect of check circuit substrate.But, in the method, can only detect the electric field of the fore-end of electrooptics sensor, when the voltage of asking circuitous pattern integral body distributes, the electrooptics sensor is scanned.
On the other hand, open to have disclosed in the flat 5-256794 communique (Japan) spy and check the disconnection defect such as pixel electrode, grid wiring, source wiring of liquid crystal display substrate and the device of circuit defect non-contactly by the voltage Determination of distribution.Here, near the electrooptic element that is disposed at the circuit substrate, the voltage of testing circuit figure distributes two-dimensionally from its reflected light with parallel light beam irradiates.
But the birefraction height of electrooptic element is so because of surface reflection and backside reflection generation interference stripes, obviously worsen the image of the voltage distribution of obtaining according to reflected light.
In addition, voltage is applied to circuit substrate 4 on the time, oriented surface direction diffusion charge in electrooptic element, the tendency that voltage distribute to be worsened.Promptly, in the time of on the circuitous pattern that voltage is applied to circuit substrate, there is the direct current resistance component that has because of reflection horizon that the voltage of the circuitous pattern of circuit substrate is distributed to expand to the problem on the electrooptic element to direct current resistance component, the particularly electrooptic element of surface direction.

Preferred forms
Below, with reference to accompanying drawing embodiments of the invention are described.
Fig. 1 is a sectional view of schematically representing the electrooptic element 10 of the 1st embodiment.Form transparency conducting layer 12 11 times at glass substrate.On two surfaces of electrooptics crystal layer 15, form anti-reflection layer 14 and reflection horizon 16 in addition.Go up anti-reflection layer 14 by the bonding electrooptics crystal layer 15 by above-mentioned other formation of bond layer 13 on the surface of transparency conducting layer 12 (downside).That is, between bond layer 13 and electrooptics crystal layer 15, anti-reflection layer 14 is set.
Transparency conducting layer 12 has the effect as electrode, by ITO (Indium Tin Oxide; Tin indium oxide) layer constitutes.
As electrooptics crystal layer 15, for example for Pockel's effect (Pockel ' s effect) crystal etc.Utilizing light to detect under the situation of electric field by the Pockel's effect crystal, the transverse electric field detection that the electric field perpendicular to light direction is had sensitivity is being arranged, and the vertical electric field detection that the electric field that is parallel to light direction is had sensitivity.In order correctly to detect the corresponding Electric Field Distribution of voltage distribution that produces with circuit substrate, use vertical electric field to detect.Have the Pockel's effect crystal that the vertical electric field of sensitivity detects as carrying out electric field to the direct of travel that is parallel to light, Bi is arranged 12SiO 20(BSO, bismuth oxide silicon), GaAs (gallium arsenide), LiNbO 3-55 degree are cut apart, ZnSe, KDP (KH 2PO 4, potassium hydrogen phosphate), KTP (KTiOPO 4, titanium phosphate potassium) etc.KDP, KTP have hygroscopy, and the value of the electrooptics coefficient of ZnSe, GaAs etc. is low.Therefore, expectation use birefraction high but do not have hygroscopy, in cube crystalline substance, have isotropic character, BSO crystal that the electrooptics coefficient ratio is bigger.For example, preferably, form electrooptics crystal layer 15 with the BSO crystal about thickness grinding 1~30mm of 100~500 μ m.If the BSO crystal is lower than 100 μ m, then potential difference (PD) diminishes, so the detection sensitivity of electric field diminishes.And if above 500 μ m, then electric field enlarges to surface direction, be not easy to detect voltage and distribute.
Have again, the electrooptics crystal layer 15 that is used for electrooptic element 10 that uses as present embodiment is not limited to above-mentioned electrooptics crystal layer, as long as can change the electrooptics crystal layer of birefraction by electric field just passable, can use above-mentioned any electrooptics crystal layer, also can use above-mentioned unaccounted electrooptics crystal layer.
Optical grinding is carried out on the two sides of electrooptics crystal layer 15, and aberration is preferably about (1/4) λ (λ is a wavelength) in the surface.Under the situation as the pick-up unit of circuit substrate described later, the thin place of electrooptics crystal layer 15 electric field between the circuitous pattern of circuit substrate and transparency conducting layer 12 does not enlarge, and becomes the Electric Field Distribution that the voltage near original circuitous pattern distributes.Therefore, in order to detect the Electric Field Distribution near the voltage distribution shape of circuitous pattern, electrooptics crystal layer 15 is preferably thinner.But, if electrooptics crystal layer 15 is thin, have at the circuitous pattern with circuit substrate under the situation of certain intervals noncontact electrooptic element 10, in the capacitor structure between circuitous pattern and transparency conducting layer 12, the potential difference (PD) that is applied on the electrooptics crystal layer 15 diminishes.Therefore, the detection sensitivity of electric field diminishes, but also unmanageable problem is arranged.The thickness of electrooptics crystal layer 15 becomes the key that these principal elements are coordinated mutually, in the present embodiment, and the electrooptics crystal layer 15 of used thickness 100 μ m~500 μ m.
The laser beam that incides electrooptic element 10 (seeing through glass substrate 11) is subjected to the phase modulation (PM) that electric field produces, by the bottom reflection of electrooptics crystal layer 15.Electrooptics crystal layer 15 majorities are birefraction height, and then reflectivity is also high.At LiNbO 3Situation under, refractive index is 2.2, reflectivity is about 14% under this situation.Therefore, electrooptics crystal layer 15 is carried out optical grinding, also can detect the reflected light of bottom surface, but, in the present embodiment, reflection horizon 16 is formed on the bottom surface of electrooptics crystal layer 15 in order further to improve reflectivity.Multilayer dielectric reflection horizon is used in reflection horizon 16, as material, MaF is arranged 2-TiO 2, SiO 2-TiO 2Deng.
So, because electrooptics crystal layer 15 is thin and damaged easily, so be bonded on the glass substrate 11 that has formed transparency conducting layer 12 by bond layer 13.If bond layer 13 uses the big material of cure shrinkage, then, electrooptics crystal layer 15 produces stress because approaching, particularly under the situation of some crystal of bismuth oxide silicon piezoelectricity such as (BSO), the uneven danger of optical characteristics is arranged.Therefore, with regard to bond layer 13, use the little materials of cure shrinkage such as epoxy system.
Electrooptic element 10 has the multi-ply construction of aforesaid refractive index unlike material, and coherence's height of the laser beam of incident, so be easy to generate the interference that multipath reflection causes.Particularly on the border of the high electrooptics crystal layer 15 of bond layer 13 and refractive index, it is big that reflectivity becomes.For example, bond layer 13 is under the bonding agent situation of epoxy system, and refractive index is about 1.56, and electrooptics crystal layer 15 is under the situation of bismuth oxide silicon (BSO), and refractive index is 2.53, and the difference between the refractive index is big.Therefore, there is the problem that the image that electric field is detected distribute obviously worsens because of the upper surface of electrooptics crystal layer 15 and the reflection of lower surface produce interference stripes.
Electrooptic element 10 according to the 1st embodiment shown in Figure 1, between electrooptics crystal layer 15 and bond layer 13, form the anti-reflection layer 14 of the refringence of having considered both, suppress the interference stripes that multipath reflection causes by the reflectivity in the upper surface (with the face of reflection horizon 16 opposition sides) that reduces electrooptics crystal layer 15, can detect the image corresponding well with Electric Field Distribution.Anti-reflection layer 14 must consider that the refringence between bond layer 13 and the electrooptics crystal layer 15 designs, and uses SiO in this example 2-TiO 2Multilayer dielectric anti-reflection layer.
Other embodiment of the present invention below are described.In the explanation of other embodiment, the part identical with the 1st embodiment is attached with identical reference number, and omits its detailed explanation.
Fig. 2 is the sectional view that schematically illustrates the electrooptic element 20 of the 2nd embodiment.The 2nd embodiment also is provided with anti-reflection layer 17 between transparency conducting layer 12 and the bond layer 13 in the 1st embodiment.Thus, can suppress the reflectivity of the lower surface (with the face of glass substrate 11 opposition sides) of transparency conducting layer 12, synthetically improve the picture quality of electrooptic element 20.
The refractive index of transparency conducting layer 12 is 1.90, and epoxy is that the refractive index of the bond layer 13 under the situation is about 1.48, so produce reflection on both borders, produces multipath reflection in transparency conducting layer 12.Even transparency conducting layer 12, also with the 1st embodiment in the upper surface of the electrooptics crystal layer 15 that illustrates and the reflection of lower surface produce multipath reflection in the same manner, may produce interference stripes.Therefore, form the anti-reflection layer 17 of having considered the refringence between transparency conducting layer 12 and the bond layer 13.
According to the 2nd embodiment, between electrooptics crystal layer 15 and bond layer 13, also form anti-reflection layer 17, so laser radiation is arrived under the situation of electrooptic element 20, can suppress the multipath reflection in electrooptics crystal layer 15 and the transparency conducting layer 12, Electric Field Distribution can be detected as preferable image.
As the 3rd embodiment, the some electrooptic elements 10 that used the 1st, the 2nd embodiment or 20 circuit pattern detecting device are described below with reference to Fig. 3.Light from LASER Light Source 30 incides electrooptic element 10 or 20 by optical system mechanism 32.Below electrooptic element 10 or 20, configuration has formed the circuit substrate 34 of circuitous pattern 33.Optical system mechanism 32 is made of optical beam expander 36, polarization spectroscope 38 and optical lens 40.
Light source also can use halogen light source, higher source luminance (メ Ha ラ イ De) etc. except LASER Light Source 30.
The laser that shines electrooptic element 10 or 20 from LASER Light Source 30 is become the laser beam of two dimension by optical beam expander 36.Laser beam carries out polarization by polarization spectroscope 38, shines electrooptic element 10 or 20.
Circuit substrate 34 is configured near electrooptic element 10 or 20 belows, but also can contact electrooptic element 10 or 20, also can form noncontact by the distance about 20 μ m.Electrooptic element 10 or 20 transparency conducting layer 12 are grounded, and by voltage being applied on the circuitous pattern 33, produce electric field between circuitous pattern 33 and transparency conducting layer 12.Electrooptics crystal layer 15 changes birefraction by electric field.Have again, with reference to Figure 10 also as described later, also circuitous pattern ground connection can be applied to voltage on the transparency conducting layer 12 of electrooptic element 10 or 20.
Change plane of polarization to the incident light of electrooptic element 10 or 20 because of the variation of this birefraction.Polarization angle is by the electrooptics tensor of electrooptics crystal layer 15 and the electric field intensity direction decision that produces.Therefore, laser beam distributes according to the voltage of circuitous pattern 33 and changes polarization state.
Electrooptic element 10 or 20 bottom surface (reflection horizon 16) laser light reflected light beam also change plane of polarization because of the variation of the birefraction of electrooptics crystal layer 15.
The laser beam that incides electrooptic element 10 or 20 is radiated in the bottom surface of electrooptics crystal layer 15, incides polarization reflective mirror 38, has the light intensity corresponding with Electric Field Distribution along horizontal direction laser light reflected light beam among the figure and distributes.
Have the laser beam that the light intensity corresponding with Electric Field Distribution distributes by optical lens 40 optically focused, by detecting, the voltage distribution of circuitous pattern can be distributed as the light intensity of two dimension and detect with optical detection device 42.As optical detection device 42, can use CCD etc.By being distributed, the detected voltages of optical detection device 42 resolve, handle (detected Electric Field Distribution intensity and benchmark are distributed compare judgement), defectives such as the broken string of circuitous pattern 33 that can check circuit substrate 34 and short circuit by resolver 42.
This pick-up unit uses the electrooptic element 10 or 20 that is provided with anti-reflection layer 14,17, even so on light source, use the high LASER Light Source 30 of coherence, also can prevent the interference stripes that the multipath reflection of electrooptics crystal layer 15 causes, Electric Field Distribution between transparency conducting layer 12 and the circuitous pattern 33 can be detected as preferable image (hereinafter referred to as the electric field intensity map picture), accurately defectives such as the broken string of the circuitous pattern 33 of check circuit substrate 34 and short circuit.
Have again,, the repeated detection result is carried out summation averaging, then can improve S/N if carry out repeated detection.
And with reference to Fig. 9 also as described later, the difference of the testing result in the time of can also obtaining with non-rayed suppresses the scattered light component.
Be shown in Fig. 4 A~4C from electric field intensity map as the broken string of check circuit substrate and the principle of short circuit.In Fig. 4 A, for the circuitous pattern of observing from above 33, configuration electrooptic element 10 or 20.The good pairing electric field intensity map of circuitous pattern of electrical specification as 46 shown in Fig. 4 B, verily the reproducing circuit figure 33, and the bad pairing electric field intensity map of circuitous pattern of electrical specification as 46 shown in Fig. 4 C, comprise 48A of short circuit portion and disconnection portion 48B, with the electric field intensity map of good circuitous pattern as 46 audit by comparison in, can detect 48A of short circuit portion and disconnection portion 48B.Have again, as circuit substrate, even except the form that also can adopt (detection) at the inside and the back side of substrate circuitous pattern to be arranged is being arranged on the surface of substrate the form of circuitous pattern.
According to the 3rd embodiment, the electrooptic element that use is provided with anti-reflection layer comes the pick-up unit of the circuitous pattern of forming circuit substrate, so the influence that suppresses to disturb with the non-contact method of having used electric optical effect also detects the intensity distributions of the electric field that the circuitous pattern by highly integrated circuit substrate produces accurately, can carry out electric checking.Only above circuit substrate, dispose electrooptic element, electric-field intensity distribution that just can the testing circuit figure.Therefore, by comparing, judge the electric-field intensity distribution of detected electric-field intensity distribution and non-defective unit, can carry out electric checking at short notice with simple position determination system.
In recent years, highly integrated because of circuit substrate is difficult to make spring probe to contact, and the outward appearance by the check circuit figure replaces the situation of electric checking in the majority.But, damage that can not the testing circuit figure in visual examination etc.According to the 3rd embodiment, suppress interference stripes, the electric-field intensity distribution between electrooptics crystal and the circuitous pattern is formed good electric field intensity map look like to come the voltage of testing circuit figure to distribute, so can also detect in visual examination defective such as non-detectable damage.
Fig. 5 represents the pick-up unit of the 4th embodiment.The 32A of optical system mechanism is provided with the polarization spectroscope 38 that spectroscope 38A replaces the 3rd embodiment, between optical beam expander 36 and spectroscope 38A polariscope 52 is set, and be provided with the inspection light microscopic 54 replace optical lens 40.Connect signal source 56 in the circuitous pattern 33 of circuit substrate 34, circuitous pattern 33 is applied voltage according to the timing corresponding with control signal from control device 58.Control device 58 also provides control signal to LASER Light Source 30, optical detection device 42, resolver 44, and the irradiation timing of control light, detection timing, parsing are regularly.Polarization spectroscope 38 equivalences of polariscope 52, spectroscope 38A, inspection light microscopic 54 and the 3rd embodiment.
The electrooptic element 60 of present embodiment can use the element 10,20 of the 1st, the 2nd embodiment, also can use the common components that does not have anti-reflection layer.Fig. 5 represents to use the latter's situation.Electrooptic element 60 has transparency conducting layer 62, electrooptics crystal layer 64, dielectric reflection horizon 66 at least.
Light source can also use halogen light source, higher source luminance etc. except LASER Light Source 30.The laser that incides electrooptic element 60 from LASER Light Source 30 is become the laser beam of two dimension by spectroscope 36.Laser beam carries out polarization by polariscope 52, incides electrooptic element 60.
The laser beam that incides electrooptic element 60 by the variation of the birefraction in the electrooptics crystal layer 64, changes polarization state by 66 reflections of dielectric reflection horizon.The polarization angle of this moment is by the electrooptics tensor of electrooptics crystal 64 and the electric field intensity direction decision that produces.At this moment, laser beam distributes according to the voltage of circuitous pattern 33 and changes polarization state.
The laser beam that has changed from the plane of polarization of electrooptic element 60 emission is incided spectroscope 38A, and wherein the laser beam of vertical branch incides inspection light microscopic 54.Have and the voltage of the circuitous pattern 33 corresponding light intensity distributions that distributes from inspection light microscopic 54 emission laser beam.As inspection light microscopic 54, can use polarization plates etc.By detecting these laser beams with optical detection device 42, the light intensity distributions that the voltage of circuitous pattern 33 can be distributed as two dimension detects.Resolve, handle by resolver 44 as required by the detected voltages of optical detection device 44 are distributed, defectives such as broken string that can check circuit figure 33 and short circuit.
Form the effect of distributed constant circuit in the internal electric characteristic of electrooptic element 60, but in equivalent electrical circuit, can not ignore the reactive component (capacitive sensing component) of in-plane and the adpedance component (direct current resistance component) of vertical direction, so its equivalent electrical circuit as shown in Figure 6.
Capacitive component because of the electrooptics crystal layer 64 of formation between reflection horizon 66 and the ITO layer 62 has low frequency and passes through characteristic on surface direction.Therefore, from signal source 56 when circuitous pattern 33 applies step voltage, as shown in Figure 7, from circuitous pattern 33 capacitive component C by air layer AirNear circuitous pattern 33 capacitive component C 1Apply voltage V 1, the capacitive component C that separates to surface direction successively 2, C 3..., C nApply voltage V 2, V 3... V nSo if circuitous pattern 33 is applied DC voltage, then optical detection device 42 extended detection because of voltage distributes is so can not distribute by testing circuit.
Dielectric reflection horizon 66 is not desirable dielectric, in fact has high resistance value, and this reflection horizon becomes the reason of the resolution deterioration of the voltage distribution that makes circuitous pattern.Because of the resistive component in dielectric reflection horizon when circuitous pattern applies DC voltage, electric charge enlarges along surface direction, the spatial resolution that voltage distributes descends.
Therefore, from the equivalent electrical circuit of Fig. 6 as can be known,, then can suppress the diffusion of electric charge, can high resolving power ground detect the voltage that is applied on the circuitous pattern 33 and distribute to surface direction if circuitous pattern 33 is applied alternating voltage.
In the present embodiment, shown in Fig. 8 A, alternating voltage is applied on the circuitous pattern 33 from signal source 56.Shown in Fig. 8 B, synchronous when being maximum with the absolute value of alternating voltage, by control device 58 controls regularly, the reflected light that optical detection device 42 detects from electrooptic element 60.When the absolute value of alternating voltage was big, the intensity that detected voltage distributes was also big.Therefore, alternating voltage as shown in figure 11 is applied on the circuitous pattern 33, by the detection of reflected light synchronously when maximum with the amplitude of the alternating voltage shown in Figure 11 B, the distributed constant ground that can highly sensitive, not influence the surface direction of electrooptic element 60 detects voltage and distributes.
And, shown in Fig. 8 B, detect the data of a plurality of light intensity distributions synchronously with alternating voltage, so they are carried out summation averaging, can improve the S/N ratio by resolver 44, voltage can be distributed and detect as light intensity distributions.
Below, the process flow diagram that uses pick-up unit shown in Figure 5 to implement the electric checking of circuit substrate according to the electric field intensity map picture is shown in Fig. 9.
In step S10, control device 58 sends indication to signal source, and circuitous pattern 33 is applied alternating voltage.Detected by optical detection device 42 by the corresponding electric field intensity map picture of the Electric Field Distribution shape with circuitous pattern 33 that applies the voltage generation.
In step S12, control device 58 sends the image detection indication to optical detection device 42, and optical detection device 42 detects the electric field intensity map picture.
In step S14, control device 58 sends image to optical detection device 42 and transmits indication, and optical detection device 42 looks like to be sent to resolver 44 with detected electric field intensity map.Usually, optical detection device 42 detects the signal (scattered light component) by the extinction ratio generation of polariscope 52, inspection light microscopic 54, so obtain and the difference that does not comprise the image that has only scattered light scattered light component of electric field picture content, suppresses the scattered light component.
Therefore, in step S16, control device 58 sends indication to signal source 56, stops circuitous pattern 33 is applied alternating voltage, detects the scattered light component.
In step S18, control device 58 sends the image detection indication to optical detection device 42, and optical detection device 42 detects scattered light image.
In step S20, control device 58 sends image to optical detection device 42 and transmits indication, and optical detection device 42 is sent to resolver 44 with detected scattered light image.
In step S22, from the detected electric field intensity map picture of step S12, deduct detected scattered light image among the step S18 and only obtain the electric field intensity map picture, with the audit by comparison of the pairing electric field intensity map picture of good circuitous pattern that will obtain in advance in, implement the electric checking of circuitous pattern.
Have, the voltage that is used to produce electric field is not limited to be applied to circuitous pattern 33, as shown in figure 10, also can be applied on the transparency conducting layer 62 of electrooptic element 60 again.That is, signal source 56 is free of attachment to circuit substrate 34 (circuitous pattern 33), also can carries out same inspection and be connected on the electrooptic element 60 (transparency electrode 62).Thus, having can be with the contact advantage of coming the circuitous pattern of testing circuit substrate simply such as short bar.
Pick-up unit according to present embodiment, according to the method for having used electric optical effect, the deterioration that can suppress the spatial resolution that causes along the distributed constant circuit characteristic that the surface direction of electrooptic element forms comes the voltage of the circuitous pattern of testing circuit substrate to distribute.Distribute by resolving this voltage, can in the electric checking of the broken string/short circuit of highly integrated circuit substrate, effectively detect.
According to the pick-up unit of present embodiment, only on the circuitous pattern of circuit substrate, dispose electrooptic element, the Electric Field Distribution that the voltage of circuitous pattern can be distributed as two dimension detects.By will this detected Electric Field Distribution and the electric-field intensity distribution of the circuitous pattern of non-defective unit compare, judge, can carry out electric checking with fast, the simple position determination system of detection speed.
In the pick-up unit of present embodiment, by the circuitous pattern to circuit substrate apply periodic zero-sum voltage, for example alternating voltage detects, when voltage is applied on the circuitous pattern of circuit substrate, direct current resistance component to surface direction, particularly the voltage of the circuitous pattern of the circuit substrate that produces of the direct current resistance component that has because of the reflection horizon of electrooptic element distributes and does not diffuse into electrooptic element, can the spatial resolution highland detects voltage and distributes.In the past, the direct current resistance component that has because of the dielectric reflection horizon, do not notice the situation that electric charge makes voltage distribute and worsen along the surface direction diffusion, in the present embodiment, apply periodic zero-sum voltage, for example alternating voltage by circuitous pattern, improve the spatial resolution that voltage distributes circuit substrate.Periodic zero-sum voltage is the voltage that makes the magnitude of voltage of cycle integrated be zero, do not have DC component, is not limited to alternating voltage, also can periodically apply positive negative pulse stuffing voltage.
Figure 11 A, 11B are the figure of the summary of expression the 5th embodiment that applies the periodic zero-sum voltage that pulse voltage produces.
The positive negative pulse stuffing voltage of equal amplitudes that will be shown in Figure 11 A from signal source 56 is applied on the circuitous pattern 33.With applying regularly synchronously of pulse voltage shown in Figure 11 B, control device 58 controls regularly, the reflected light that optical detection device 42 detects from electrooptic element 60.Thus, also can the resolution height, improve S/N and recently detect voltage and distribute.
In the 4th, the 5th embodiment, explanation is by applying periodic zero-sum voltage, suppress the diffusion of electric charge to surface direction, then, by applying the voltage of moment waveform, by the DC component of this voltage, detect Electric Field Distribution in the transition period that did not lose efficacy, thereby suppress the diffusion of electric charge to surface direction.
In the 6th embodiment, the step voltage shown in Figure 12 A is applied on the circuitous pattern 33 from signal source 56.With applying regularly synchronously of step voltage shown in Figure 12 B, control device 58 controls regularly, the reflected light that optical detection device 42 detects from electrooptic element 60.Thus, the influence that not produced by the electric charge diffusion in the electrooptic element 60, the voltage that can detect as light intensity distributions to high resolving power distributes.
In the 7th embodiment, the pulse voltage shown in Figure 13 A is applied on the circuitous pattern 33 from signal source 56.With applying regularly synchronously of step voltage shown in Figure 13 B, control device 58 controls regularly, the reflected light that optical detection device 42 detects from electrooptic element 60.Thus, the influence that not produced by the electric charge diffusion in the electrooptic element 60, the voltage that can detect as light intensity distributions to high resolving power distributes.
In the 8th embodiment, the pulse voltage shown in Figure 14 A is applied on the circuitous pattern 33 from signal source 56.With applying regularly synchronously of as shown in Figure 14B step voltage, control device 58 controls regularly, the reflected light that optical detection device 42 detects from electrooptic element 60.At this moment, with do not apply Figure 14 A voltage during T OffBe set at the sufficient time that electric charge that the capacitive component of electrooptic element 60 produces discharges.Thus, the influence that not produced by the electric charge diffusion in the electrooptic element 60, the voltage that can detect as light intensity distributions to high resolving power distributes.Here, synchronous with the pulse voltage that applies continuously, carry out summation averaging by the data of 44 pairs of optical detection device 42 detected a plurality of light intensity distributions of resolver, can the voltage distribution be detected as light intensity distributions the S/N highland.
According to the 6th~the 8th embodiment,, detect the voltage distribution so can be distributed in the surface of electrooptic element direction diffusion front space resolution highland at the voltage of circuitous pattern at instantaneous ground detection of reflected light when circuitous pattern applies voltage.
Figure 15 is the synoptic diagram of the circuit pattern detecting device of the 9th embodiment.The 9th embodiment is in the 1st~the 8th embodiment, and (1/8) wavelength plate 70 is set between polariscope 52 and spectroscope 38A, between spectroscope 38A and inspection light microscopic 54 (1/8) wavelength plate 72 is set.Under the situation that (1/8) wavelength plate 72 is not set, (1/4) wavelength plate also can be set replace (1/8) wavelength plate.Thus, can have maximum (1/4) wavelength phase differential at incident light with penetrating on the polarization surface to electrooptic element 60.Therefore, when voltage was applied on the circuitous pattern 33, the relation that applies between voltage and the light intensity became characteristic 16B from the characteristic 16A of Figure 16, highly sensitive when applying voltage.

As problem so far, the dielectric reflection horizon is not desirable dielectric, in fact has high resistance value, and this dielectric becomes the reason of the resolution deterioration of the voltage distribution that makes circuitous pattern.Because of the resistive component in dielectric reflection horizon, when being applied to DC voltage on the circuitous pattern, electric charge spreads to surface direction, and the spatial resolution that voltage is distributed descends.In order to address this problem, in the 4th embodiment, apply alternating voltage.
The intensity variation that electric optical effect produces has nonlinear characteristic, is applying under voltage and the intensity variation situation with respect to the polar-symmetric of voltage, and near the sensitivity the 0V descends.But, shown in the 9th embodiment, if to the incident light of electrooptic element 60 with penetrate on the polarization surface and have phase differential, then apply between voltage and the light intensity relation as shown in figure 16, become asymmetric.Therefore, near the sensitivity the 0V improves, but when applying alternating voltage, also brightens respectively or deepening with respect to the variation of the light intensity of generating positive and negative voltage.Therefore, under situation about detecting with two-dimensional photodetector such as CCD, the light intensity in the sense cycle changes by average, and sensitivity descends.
