Abstract

A confocal microscope measurement system includes a beam splitter, an objective lens, a condenser lens, a pinhole, a light detector and an interferometer. The interferometer is disposed between the objective lens and an object to be detected. A laser beam is focused by the objective lens, and then separated to two optical beams by the beam splitter. The two optical beams are respectively incident upon a surface of the object and a reference surface mirror of the interferometer. The two optical beams are reflected along the original optical path through the beam splitter to the condenser lens and pinhole, and simultaneously producing interference and then transmitting the pinhole to be received by the light detector. A longitudinal measurement resolution of a confocal microscope is improved.

[Prior Art] Optical wire micromirror is a modern precision measuring instrument crying material, Shide "_山7里列仪" is widely used on the surface of materials, surface microscopic features of biological samples and dynamic materials, or biological Film, collagen history, cell movement, liquid gas m gas interface special materials research. As for the application of 'digital multi-purpose optical disc (DVD) and thin film transistor (tft) and other products: the test of the process, also need The use of optical microscopy. Optical microscopy in the congenital and 2 damage detection (four) sex 'has the advantage of not having to treat the sample as a special treatment material. However, due to the diffraction phenomenon of light waves, its resolution is limited to the + wavelength of the temple level ( It is generally called the diffraction limit.) Confocal microscopy (C〇nfocal microsc〇pe) uses pinholes for spatial chopping, which makes the image resolution a plus-filament microscope and has the ability to detect longitudinally. Confocal microscopy can be used for three-dimensional image scavenging, that is, in addition to the two-dimensional surface topography, It can analyze the layered structure inside the test piece. Since the microscope does not need to use the probe, it can scan the cat at a very fast speed, and has a large broom range. However, the confocal microscope longitudinal resolution Only about the surface, in other words, 'When the layered structure in the test piece is less than 5〇〇nm, it cannot be resolved. Such resolution is applied to semiconductor film thickness measurement or biological cell slice analysis. It is not enough. The principle of confocal scanning microscopy is generally disclosed in US Patent No. 3,013,467 filed by Marvin Minsky in 1957. Due to the lack of proper light at the time! 258598 source and data processing capabilities, this principle is still Staying at the stage of pure theory, confocal scanning microscopy can truly become a practical microscopy after waiting for laser and personal computer invention. In 1969, Paul Davidovits and David David Egger developed the first use of lasers. A confocal scanning microscope, and the first commercial confocal scanning microscope was introduced in 1987. For nearly a decade, either laser technology or Personal computers have made amazing developments, making confocal microscopy more complete. The optical theory of single-photon confocal micromirrors was first proposed by Colin Sheppard and Tony Wilson of Oxford University in the United Kingdom. Watt W. Webb of Cornell University, USA In 1989, the experiment confirmed the uniqueness of the two-photon confocal microscope. The American AT&A A Bell Laboratory disclosed the processing procedure of confocal microscopy for semiconductor linewidth control in 1992, US5078482. The invention provides a shorter focal depth and a higher effective resolution than a general confocal microscope. The Nikon company disclosed in U.S. Patent 5,296,700 in 1994, which is equipped with a scanning confocal microscope and an optical objective lens. To solve the problem, the above system can be used to reconstruct the image of the object to be tested and the optical color difference compensation, which can effectively improve the quantified result of the technology of the cursor. In 1999, the German company Siemens published the US5991040 case to reveal the resolution of the three-dimensional surface image by the triangulation method. The rotation of the corner mirror can be used to measure the upper surface of the object to be tested. The appearance of the left and right surfaces is adjacent, and the information of the scanning points can be quickly drawn out by using the array photodetector. In 2002, Digital Optical Image Company disclosed the information on the defocus plane in 2002, and plotted the information about the height difference between the focal planes, such as measuring the three points (A, B, C) of the object under test, where B The point is located at the focal plane set to zero, and the two points A and C are located on the off-focus plane. Comparing the difference between the height and the focal plane, the surface morphology of the object to be tested can be drawn 258598. ::rYr rr (4) 2 22 == ^ The position scan information of this motor drive platform, this technology is mainly for a wide range of surface inspection, such as the surface of the LCD or wafer.

The integrated microscope has the advantage of saving space and is suitable for general laboratory use. The structure and principle of the conventional confocal microscope will be described in detail in the sixth figure. As shown in the sixth figure, the conventional confocal microscope 1G includes: a beam splitter u, an objective lens 12, a collecting mirror 13, and a pinhole 14 And light _ device 15. - The test piece 16 (object to be tested) is placed on a stage (not shown) and located behind the objective lens 12. The collimated laser beam 17 is focused on the surface of the test piece 16 via the objective lens 12, reflected by the surface of the test piece 16, and then reaches the first detector 15 via the beam splitter u, the collecting mirror η and the pinhole 14. Since the surface of the cymbal 16 is on the focal plane of the objective lens 12, and the pinhole 14 is also located on the focal plane of the concentrating mirror 13, all of the light is received by the photodetector! 258598 15 through the pinhole 14. Please refer to the solid line part in the figure to make the photo detector 15 output the largest nickname. When the test piece 16 is moved in the Z direction, the surface of the test piece 16 will leave the focal plane of the objective lens U (such as the test piece 16 shown by the broken line), and the light previously reflected by the test piece 16 will be broken and cannot pass through the needle. The hole 14 is unable to reach the photodetector 丨5. Please refer to the dotted line in the figure, so the output signal is weak. As shown in the seventh figure, according to the diffraction theory, the distance between the light intensity passing through the pinhole 14 and the defocus of the test piece (z longitudinal displacement) becomes a function of the sinc2 function. When the surface of the test piece 16 is laterally scanned, the height of the stage 16 is micro-tuned to maintain the light intensity at the maximum value, and the shape of the test piece 16 can be known based on the amount of movement of the stage height. The seventh picture of the eye is taken, and the special microscope intensity is obtained from the Youqiang single point value von measurement, but the signal intensity of the test piece is zero for the test piece position. The resolution is only about 0.1. The slope is everywhere, that is, the position of the mountainside to the reaction curve, and the 钭m/ at the waist is extremely sensitive. Suppose curve mountain ===::=: When the light intensity will be 1% of 0.1%, the vertical resolution can reach ίιΜ right first intensity ^ tiger ratio: the longitudinal resolution of the micro mirror is better than the traditional confocal Microscope high, we can know, differential confocal [invention content] The slope of the reaction curve, to obtain the higher two::=: Confocal microscopy system for the above purpose, collection lens, pinhole, photodetector and cognac : Between the spectroscope, the objective lens and the object to be tested, including Φ "(5) The interferometer is installed in the interferometer and is divided into two lights. When the beam is focused by the objective lens, it is caused by the instrument' and the two lights are reflected ^ : Don't be incident on the surface of the object to be side-by-side and the original road is stupid through the aforementioned beam splitter to the concentrator. 1258598 Γ(10), Zhan (4) She wears her Xie _ device and passes through the above-mentioned objective lens II with a face mask and a beam splitter. The laser beam and the two channels are first: the splitter of the interferometer is divided into two light rays, and the special knife is incident on the surface of the to-be-side #surface and the dry one is better than the aforementioned confocal microscopy system. system. The spoon-shaped ν-type differential confocal microscopy is better, the object to be tested is located in the focal plane of the objective lens / on the focal plane of the Lizhao collecting mirror, and is subjected to the aforementioned optical detection by the pinhole of the pinhole The detector receives. The beam of 丨 is passed through the foregoing: preferably, the light intensity of the pinhole is longitudinally reflected with the object to be tested, and the curve is in a sine2 function relationship. ',,, (4) The preferred one is the front side of the longitudinal response curve, which is imaginary % _ _ stripe _. f where the slope is large, the longitudinal height changes the most two = two: the confocal microscopy system scans the surface of the object to be tested laterally, = measurement, the longitudinal height of the table, the displacement of the stage height and the plane of the lateral scanning The three-dimensional surface topography of the object to be tested can be obtained. The foregoing objects or features of the present invention are described in detail below, and the following figures and examples are only one embodiment. [Embodiment] As shown in the figure - the confocal microscopy system of the present invention Including, 1 objective lens 12, collecting mirror 13, pinhole 14, photodetector 15 and interferometer ^. Just return to the beam splitter 11, the objective lens 12, the collecting mirror 13, the pinhole 14 and the optical debt measurement crying 15, which is the conventional confocal microscope shown in the sixth figure. One try on the stage (not shown) and behind the objective lens 12, that is, the beam passing through: two between 1258598 16 and the side. The interferometer 20 is provided in the objective lens i2 and the test piece interferometer 20 includes a reference mirror 21 and a beam splitter 2?. When the laser beam 17 is condensed by the objective lens 12 and is a 2 〇 8 t, it is the second line of the interferometer L, and the two lights are respectively focused on the surface of the test piece μ and the reference surface of the instrument 2G. Mirror 21. Then the two lights are reflected = = the mirror 11 comes to the position of the collecting mirror 13 and the pinhole 14; it is received by the photodetector 15 through the pinhole 丨4. According to the principle of light interference, it is possible to push the tomb Φ to produce 乂 j to push the light intensity at the pinhole 14 position: the relationship between the two defocus distances (7) is: Μι+·_. Because of the foregoing, the surface of the mask 2 and the pinhole 14 are at the position of the conjugate focal point, and the distance between the money of the hole and the distance of the test piece 16 is also a function of the function. Second, the form of the optical signal received by the heart 15 is subject to both optical interference and sinc2 = number specification. Since the above-mentioned optical interference signal is extremely sensitive to the longitudinal displacement, the slope of the longitudinal response curve of the system is improved by a lot. 4 The tester shows the curve shown in the figure. It is assumed that the wavelength of the light source is (four) , the first step inverse f, the slope of the curve is about 12 / _, that is, when the measurement reference is locked in the 0th-order longitudinal-reaction, spring, the mountain waist position, the longitudinal resolution will be more than non-interferometric The differential conjugate microscope is more than 10 times higher.
