Abstract

PURPOSE:To ensure an economical detection of foreign matter in a high accuracy through the same detector, by using the same irradiation of laser beam plus scanning system and selecting the detection system for the blank surface to be inspected and the patterned surface to be inspected in accordance with the state of the surface to be inspected. CONSTITUTION:The foreign matter on the blank surface to be inspected is detected by branching the irregularly reflected light given from the irradiation point 36 caused by existence of the foreign matter into four directions by the branching mirror 38 via the paraboloidal mirror 37 and using the photoelectric transducers 43-46 via the condenser lenses 39-42. The foreign matter on the patterned surface to be inspected is detected by the photoelectric transducers 43-46 via the polarizing plates 52-55 having the specified cut-off property, reflectors 56-57 plus the condenser lenses 39-42 after once reflecting the reflected light 47 given from the point 36 by the reflectors 48-51. In other words, reflectors 56 and 57, branching mirror 38 and paraboloidal mirror 37 are provided to be freely inserted and pulled out. In such way, the foreign matter can be detected in a high accuracy on both the blank and patterned surfaces to be inspected.
