Description

  The present invention relates to tomography using electromagnetic waves (frequency is 0.01 [THz] or more and 100 [THz] or less) (for example, terahertz wave (for example, frequency is 0.03 [THz] or more and 10 [THz] or less)).

  Conventionally, there is a computed tomography (CT) method as a method for obtaining tomographic information of an object to be measured. Executing this method using an X-ray generator and detector is called X-ray CT. According to the X-ray CT, the tomographic information of the human body can be obtained non-destructively and non-contactingly.

  However, it is difficult to detect the internal state (for example, defects and distortions) of industrial products composed of semiconductors, plastics, ceramics, wood and paper (hereinafter referred to as “raw materials”) by X-ray CT. is there. This is because X-rays are highly permeable to all substances.

  On the other hand, a terahertz wave (for example, a frequency of 0.03 [THz] or more and 10 [THz] or less) penetrates the above-described raw materials of industrial products reasonably. For this reason, if the CT method is executed using a terahertz wave generator and detector (hereinafter referred to as “terahertz wave CT method”), the internal state of the industrial product can be detected. The terahertz wave CT method is described in Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and Non-Patent Document 1.

  The CT method performs tomography based on how much X-rays or the like given to the object to be measured are absorbed (absorption rate).

  However, depending on the type of object to be measured, it may be difficult to measure by tomography using the absorption rate.

  Then, this invention makes it a subject to perform CT method based on parameters other than absorptance.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

First Embodiment FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration of an electromagnetic wave measuring apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The electromagnetic wave measuring apparatus according to the first embodiment includes an electromagnetic wave output device 2, an electromagnetic wave detector 4, a scanning stage (relative position changing unit) 6, a display 8, and an image deriving device 10. The electromagnetic wave measuring device is for measuring the DUT 1.

  The electromagnetic wave output device 2 outputs an electromagnetic wave having a frequency of 0.01 [THz] or more and 100 [THz] or less toward the DUT 1. Note that the frequency of the electromagnetic wave output toward the DUT 1 includes a terahertz wave band (for example, 0.03 [THz] or more and 10 [THz] or less). Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, terahertz waves are assumed as an example of electromagnetic waves.

  The terahertz wave output toward the device under test 1 passes through the device under test 1. The electromagnetic wave detector 4 detects an electromagnetic wave (for example, terahertz wave) that has passed through the DUT 1.

  The point where the terahertz wave enters the device under test 1 is m, and the point where the terahertz wave exits the device under test 1 is n. Then, the intersection 100 where the optical path of the electromagnetic wave passing through the DUT 1 intersects the DUT 1 becomes a line segment mn. The shape of the DUT 1 viewed from above is a circle, and the center of the circle is a point A.

  Note that the points m1, m2, m3, and m4 are all points where the terahertz wave is incident on the DUT 1. Points n1, n2, n3, and n4 are all points at which the terahertz wave is emitted from the DUT 1.

  The scanning stage (relative position changing unit) 6 changes the relative position of the intersection 100 with respect to the DUT 1. For example, the DUT 1 is fixed to the scanning stage 6, and the scanning stage 6 moves in the X direction and the Z direction (direction perpendicular to the paper surface of FIG. 1), passes through the point A, and passes through FIG. It rotates around a line segment perpendicular to the paper surface (referred to as “movement in the θ direction”).

  FIG. 2 is a plan view of the DUT 1, the electromagnetic wave output device 2, the electromagnetic wave detector 4, and the scanning stage 6 when the scanning stage 6 is moved in the X direction. Note that the DUT 1 has contents 1a and 1b.

  2A, when scanning stage 6 is moved in the + X direction from the state of FIG. 1 (or electromagnetic wave output device 2 and electromagnetic wave detector 4 may be moved in the -X direction). The intersecting portion 100 is a line segment m1n1. The relative position of the intersecting portion 100 with respect to the DUT 1 is lower than the point A. The intersecting portion 100 passes through the contents 1b.

  Referring to FIG. 2B, when the scanning stage 6 is moved in the −X direction from the state of FIG. 1 (or the electromagnetic wave output device 2 and the electromagnetic wave detector 4 may be moved in the + X direction). The intersecting portion 100 is a line segment m2n2. The relative position of the intersecting portion 100 with respect to the DUT 1 is above the point A. The intersecting portion 100 passes through the contents 1a.

  When the scanning stage 6 is moved in the X direction and changed from the state shown in FIG. 2A to the state shown in FIG. 2B, the relative position of the intersecting portion 100 with respect to the object to be measured is lower than the point A. It changes from top to bottom.

  FIG. 3 is a plan view of the DUT 1, the electromagnetic wave output device 2, the electromagnetic wave detector 4, and the scanning stage 6 when the scanning stage 6 is moved in the θ direction. Note that the DUT 1 has contents 1a and 1b.

  Referring to FIG. 3A, when the scanning stage 6 is moved in the + θ direction from the state of FIG. 1 (or the electromagnetic wave output device 2 and the electromagnetic wave detector 4 may be moved in the −θ direction). The intersecting portion 100 is a line segment m3n3. The intersecting portion 100 passes between the content 1a and the content 1b.

  Referring to FIG. 3B, when the scanning stage 6 is moved in the −θ direction from the state of FIG. 1 (or the electromagnetic wave output device 2 and the electromagnetic wave detector 4 may be moved in the + θ direction). The intersecting portion 100 is a line segment m4n4. The intersecting portion 100 passes through the contents 1a.

  When the scanning stage 6 is moved in the θ direction and changed from the state shown in FIG. 3A to the state shown in FIG. 3B, the relative position of the intersecting portion 100 with respect to the DUT 1 changes.

  As described above, the DUT 1 can be scanned by the scanning stage 6.

  The image deriving device 10 derives an image of a cross section of the DUT 1 on a plane including the intersecting portion 100 (the paper surfaces of FIGS. 1, 2, and 3).

  The display 8 displays the image F (x, y) derived by the image deriving device 10 (see Expression (5)). The derived image is numerical data about a two-dimensional cross section of the object to be measured, and a two-dimensional tomographic image of the object to be measured 1 is displayed by associating the numerical data with a predetermined color. As a method for displaying a two-dimensional tomographic image from numerical data, a known method may be adopted as appropriate.

  FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram showing a configuration of the image deriving device 10 according to the first embodiment. The image deriving device 10 includes an AD converter 11, a phase deriving unit 12, a group delay deriving unit 14, a dispersion deriving unit 15, a sinogram deriving unit 16, and a tomographic image deriving unit (image deriving unit) 18.

  The AD converter 11 converts the detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 that is an analog signal into a digital signal.

  The phase deriving unit 12 derives the phase in the frequency domain of the electromagnetic wave (for example, terahertz wave) transmitted through the DUT 1 based on the detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4.

  The phase deriving unit 12 receives the output of the AD converter 11. The output of the AD converter 11 is pulse waveform data of an electromagnetic wave that has passed through the DUT 1. This pulse waveform data is a function of x (amount of movement of the scanning stage 6 in the X direction), θ (amount of movement of the scanning stage 6 in the θ direction), and t (time).

The phase deriving unit 12 performs Fourier transform on the pulse waveform data to obtain spectrum data of the pulse waveform in the frequency domain. The spectrum data of the pulse waveform is a function of X, θ, and f (frequency). The phase deriving unit 12 derives the phase Ph ₁ (x, θ, f) from the spectrum data of the pulse waveform.

Since the dispersion CD ₁ (x, θ, f) is expressed by the following equation (2), the group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) may be partially differentiated with the frequency f. Recognize.

Specifically, sinogram deriving unit 16, the group delay GD ₁ from group delay deriving unit 14 (x, theta, f) receiving, in the following equation (3), sinogram group delay S _GD1 ( x, θ) is derived. Since the group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) is derived based on the phase Ph ₁ (x, θ, f) (see equation (1)), the sinogram S _GD1 (x, θ) is also the phase Ph ₁ ( x, θ, f).

To do. Since the variance CD ₁ (x, θ, f) is derived based on the phase Ph ₁ (x, θ, f) (see equation (2)), the sinogram S _CD1 (x, θ) is also the phase Ph ₁ (x , θ, f).

  If the sinogram derived by the sinogram deriving unit 16 is S (x, θ), the tomographic image deriving unit 18 derives an image F (x, y) as shown in the following equation (5). Equation (5) means the derivation of the image by the filtered back projection method.

次に、第一の実施形態の動作を説明する。

Next, the operation of the first embodiment will be described.

  First, the DUT 1 is fixed to the scanning stage 6. Then, the scanning stage 6 is moved in the X direction and Z direction (perpendicular to the plane of FIG. 1), and further moved in the θ direction from the electromagnetic wave output device 2 from 0.01 [THz] to 100 [THz]. An electromagnetic wave (for example, terahertz wave) having a frequency of 1 is output toward the DUT 1. The terahertz wave output toward the device under test 1 passes through the device under test 1. The electromagnetic wave transmitted through the DUT 1 is detected by the electromagnetic wave detector 4. In this way, the measurement object 1 is scanned.

  The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is given to the AD converter 11 of the image deriving device 10. The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is converted into a digital signal by the AD converter 11 and given to the phase deriving unit 12.

The phase deriving unit 12 derives the phase Ph ₁ (x, θ, f) in the frequency domain of the electromagnetic wave that has passed through the DUT 1. Based on the phase Ph ₁ (x, θ, f), the group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) and the variance CD ₁ (x, θ, f) are derived and provided to the sinogram deriving unit 16.

The sinogram deriving unit 16 derives a sinogram S _GD1 (x, θ) for the group delay or a sinogram S _CD1 (x, θ) for the variance. From the derived sinogram, the tomographic image deriving unit 18 derives a cross-sectional image of the DUT 1.

  The display 8 displays the image derived by the image deriving device 10.

According to the first embodiment, the CT method is performed based on the phase Ph ₁ (x, θ, f) rather than the electromagnetic wave absorption rate of the DUT 1 (specifically, based on group delay or dispersion). be able to.

  Advantages of performing the CT method based on group delay or dispersion will be described below.

  First, it is assumed that a cross-sectional image is obtained by performing the CT method on the DUT 1 with little absorption of terahertz waves based on the transmittance (reciprocal of the absorption rate). In this case, contrast (brightness or hue difference) according to the internal structure of the DUT 1 is not sufficiently generated in the cross-sectional image. However, if the CT method is performed based on group delay or dispersion, it can be expected that a sufficient contrast according to the internal structure of the DUT 1 is sufficiently generated in the cross-sectional image. Thereby, it can be expected that information such as the internal structure of the DUT 1 can be obtained.

  When the refractive index inside the device under test 1 is not uniform, the terahertz wave does not travel straight inside the device under test 1 but is refracted at the refractive interface. When the bending of the optical path of the terahertz wave due to refraction is large, a large power loss occurs at the refraction interface, the transmittance decreases, and an error occurs in the CT image based on the transmittance. Here, the bending of the optical path of the terahertz wave due to refraction is determined by the shape of the refractive index distribution of the DUT 1. That is, an error occurs in the CT image based on the transmittance due to the influence of the shape of the refractive index distribution of the DUT 1. On the other hand, since the group delay or dispersion is an amount different from the power, the group delay or dispersion basically does not change even if the power of the terahertz wave that passes through the DUT 1 decreases. Therefore, the CT image regarding group delay or dispersion has few errors due to the influence of the shape of the refractive index distribution of the DUT 1.

Second Embodiment The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the (first) device under test 1 and the second device under test 20 are used. Note that the DUT 1 in the first embodiment is referred to as the first DUT 1 in the second embodiment.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of the electromagnetic wave measurement device according to the second embodiment. FIG. 6 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration of the image deriving device 10 according to the second embodiment.

However, the image deriving device 10 according to the second embodiment does not include the dispersion deriving unit 15. Hereinafter, the same parts as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.

  Next, the operation of the second embodiment will be described.

  First, the second object to be measured 20 is fixed to the scanning stage 6 (see FIG. 5A). And the scan of the 2nd to-be-measured object 20 is performed similarly to 1st embodiment.

  The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is given to the AD converter 11 of the image deriving device 10. The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is converted into a digital signal by the AD converter 11 and given to the phase deriving unit 12.

As in the first embodiment, the group delay deriving unit 14 performs partial differentiation on the phase Ph ₂ (x, θ, f) with the frequency f and transmits the group of electromagnetic waves transmitted through the second device under test 20 in the frequency domain. A second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f), which is a delay, is derived.

  Next, the first DUT 1 is fixed to the scanning stage 6 (see FIG. 5B). Then, as in the first embodiment, the first device under test 1 is scanned.

  The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is given to the AD converter 11 of the image deriving device 10. The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is converted into a digital signal by the AD converter 11 and given to the phase deriving unit 12.

The phase deriving unit 12 derives the phase Ph ₁ (x, θ, f) in the frequency domain of the electromagnetic wave transmitted through the first device under test 1. Like the first embodiment, the group delay deriving unit 14, the phase _{Ph 1 (x, θ, f} ) by partially differentiating the frequency f a, first in the frequency domain of the electromagnetic wave transmitted through the first DUT 1 A group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) is derived.

Here, the sinogram deriving unit 16 receives the first group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) and the second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f) from the group delay deriving unit 14, and receives the first group delay GD. Based on the difference between ₁ (x, θ, f) and the second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f), a sinogram for the refractive index difference between the first device under test 1 and the second device under test 20 is derived. To do.

However, the sinogram S _rn (x, θ) for the refractive index difference is derived as follows by the sinogram deriving unit 16 as shown in the following equation (6).

断層像導出部１８は、第一の実施形態と同様に、被測定物１の断面の画像を導出する。

The tomographic image deriving unit 18 derives a cross-sectional image of the DUT 1 as in the first embodiment.

  The display 8 displays the image derived by the image deriving device 10.

  When the refractive index of the second object to be measured 20 is known (for example, when the second object to be measured 20 is air (including in a nitrogen atmosphere or a vacuum)), the refraction of the first object to be measured 1 is refraction. An image of the rate can be displayed.

In this case, the sinogram deriving unit 16 further uses the sinogram S _n (x for the refractive index of the first object 1 to be measured based on the following formula (7) from the sinogram S _rn (x, θ) for the refractive index difference. , θ). Where c is the speed of light and Δx is the spatial resolution of the sinogram. Further, it is assumed that the refractive index of the second device under test 20 is 1. Furthermore, sinogram S _rn (x, θ) for the refractive index difference, as described above, the first group delay _{GD 1 (x, θ, f} ) and a second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f ).

Third Embodiment The third embodiment uses the first device to be measured 1 and the second device to be measured 20 as in the second embodiment, but derives a sinogram by the sinogram deriving unit 16 and a tomographic image deriving unit. The derivation of the image by 18 is different from the second embodiment.

  FIG. 7 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration of the image deriving device 10 according to the third embodiment.

  Since the configuration of the electromagnetic wave measurement device according to the third embodiment is the same as that of the second embodiment, description thereof is omitted (see FIG. 5). However, the image deriving device 10 according to the third embodiment does not include the dispersion deriving unit 15. Hereinafter, the same parts as those of the second embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

  Next, the operation of the third embodiment will be described.

The operations until the second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f) and the first group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) are derived are the same as those in the second embodiment.

  First, the second object to be measured 20 is fixed to the scanning stage 6 (see FIG. 5A). And the scan of the 2nd to-be-measured object 20 is performed similarly to 1st embodiment.

  The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is given to the AD converter 11 of the image deriving device 10. The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is converted into a digital signal by the AD converter 11 and given to the phase deriving unit 12.

Phase deriving unit 12, the phase Ph ₂ in the frequency domain of the electromagnetic wave transmitted through the second DUT 20 (x, θ, f) deriving a. As in the first embodiment, the group delay deriving unit 14 performs partial differentiation on the phase Ph ₂ (x, θ, f) with the frequency f and transmits the group of electromagnetic waves transmitted through the second device under test 20 in the frequency domain. A second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f), which is a delay, is derived.

  Next, the first DUT 1 is fixed to the scanning stage 6 (see FIG. 5B). Then, as in the first embodiment, the first device under test 1 is scanned.

  The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is given to the AD converter 11 of the image deriving device 10. The detection result of the electromagnetic wave detector 4 is converted into a digital signal by the AD converter 11 and given to the phase deriving unit 12.

The phase deriving unit 12 derives the phase Ph ₁ (x, θ, f) in the frequency domain of the electromagnetic wave transmitted through the first device under test 1. Like the first embodiment, the group delay deriving unit 14, the phase _{Ph 1 (x, θ, f} ) by partially differentiating the frequency f a, first in the frequency domain of the electromagnetic wave transmitted through the first DUT 1 A group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) is derived.

  The operations up to here are the same as in the second embodiment.

Here, the sinogram deriving unit 16 receives the first group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) and the second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f) from the group delay deriving unit 14, and receives the first group delay GD. _A first sinogram S _GD1 (x, θ) based on 1 (x, θ, f) and a second sinogram S _GD2 (x, θ) based on the second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f) are derived.

However, the first sinogram S _GD1 (x, θ) is obtained by integrating the first group delay GD ₁ (x, θ, f) with frequency. The second sinogram S _GD2 (x, θ) is obtained by integrating the second group delay GD ₂ (x, θ, f) with frequency.

The method for deriving the image F _GD1 (x, y) and the image F _GD2 (x, y) is the same as that in the first embodiment. That is, if the first sinogram S _GD1 (x, θ) and the second sinogram S _GD2 (x, θ) are substituted into the sinogram S (x, θ) of the equation (5), the image F _GD1 (x, y) and image F _GD2 (x, y) can be derived.

The tomographic image deriving unit 18 further calculates the first difference as the difference between the cross-sectional image F _GD1 (x, y) of the first device under test 1 and the cross-sectional image F _GD2 (x, y) of the second device under test 20. An image F (x, y) indicating a group delay difference between the DUT 1 and the second DUT 20 is derived. However, F (x, y) = F _GD1 (x, y) −F _GD2 (x, y). The image F (x, y) shows the group delay difference between the first device under test 1 and the second device under test 20, and the refractive index between the first device under test 1 and the second device under test 20. The difference is also shown.
