Description
本発明は、ガラス基板などの透明体の表面側又は裏面側に付着した異物や傷などの欠陥の有無を光学的に検査する装置に関する。
The present invention relates to an apparatus for optically inspecting for the presence or absence of defects such as foreign matter and scratches attached to the front or back side of a transparent body such as a glass substrate.
従来の液晶パネルの表面欠陥検査では、表面側と裏面側のそれぞれに検出光学系を対称的に配置し、表面側の欠陥と裏面側の欠陥とを別々に検査している。(例えば、特許文献1)。
In the conventional surface defect inspection of the liquid crystal panel, the detection optical system is symmetrically arranged on each of the front side and the back side, and the front side defect and the back side defect are separately inspected. (For example, patent document 1).
また、検査対象基板に対して斜め方向からライン状の照明光を照射し、検査対象基板の厚みよりも小さい焦点深度の結像光学系を基板表面に対して90度の受光角度に配置し、検査対象基板の表面側と裏面側を混同することなく、一度に検査できる技術が実用化されている(例えば、特許文献2)。
In addition, the illumination light is irradiated to the inspection target substrate from the oblique direction, and an imaging optical system having a focal depth smaller than the thickness of the inspection target substrate is disposed at a light receiving angle of 90 degrees with respect to the substrate surface, A technique capable of inspecting at a time without confusing the front side and the back side of the substrate to be inspected has been put into practical use (for example, Patent Document 2).
図4は、従来の基板検査装置の一例を示す外観図である。従来の基板検査装置1zは、検査対象となる基板Wzの検査対象領域Rzに向けて照明部3から照明光32を照射し、検査対象領域Rzから放出された散乱光を、基板Wzの上方に備えられた観察部4zの撮像カメラ42zを用いて撮像し、撮像した画像に基づいて検査を行っている。なお、基板Wzは、基板載置台20の上に保持されており、基板載置台20は、装置フレーム11z上に取り付けられたX軸ステージ61とY軸ステージ62の上に取り付けられており、XY方向に所定の速度で移動し、所定の位置に停止することができる。また、撮像カメラ42zは、基板Wzの検査対象領域Rzの法線と光軸方向が一致するように(つまり、基板Wzの表面に対して垂直方向に)、連結部材15zを介して装置フレーム11zに取り付けられている。そのため、基板Wzと撮像部4zとを相対させながら、基板Wz全体を複数回分割スキャンして撮像・検査をしている。
FIG. 4 is an external view showing an example of a conventional substrate inspection apparatus. The conventional substrate inspection apparatus 1z irradiates the illumination light 32 from the illumination unit 3 toward the inspection target region Rz of the substrate Wz to be inspected, and the scattered light emitted from the inspection target region Rz is located above the substrate Wz. An image is captured using the imaging camera 42z of the observation unit 4z provided, and an inspection is performed based on the captured image. The substrate Wz is held on the substrate mounting table 20, and the substrate mounting table 20 is mounted on the X-axis stage 61 and the Y-axis stage 62 mounted on the apparatus frame 11z. It can move in a direction at a predetermined speed and stop at a predetermined position. In addition, the imaging camera 42z has the apparatus frame 11z via the connecting member 15z so that the normal line of the inspection target region Rz of the substrate Wz coincides with the optical axis direction (that is, in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate Wz). Is attached. For this reason, the entire substrate Wz is divided and scanned multiple times while the substrate Wz and the imaging unit 4z are opposed to each other for imaging and inspection.
検査対象基板の表面側及び裏面側に付着した異物や傷などの欠陥の有無を迅速に検査したい場合、特許文献1に示す様な、検査用の光学系を表面側と裏面側に2組配置する装置構成では、検査装置自体のコストアップやサイズアップとなってしまう。
If you want to quickly inspect for defects such as foreign matter and scratches attached to the front and back sides of the substrate to be inspected, two sets of optical systems for inspection are arranged on the front and back sides as shown in Patent Document 1. In such a device configuration, the cost and size of the inspection device itself are increased.
一方、特許文献2に示す様な、検査用の光学系を1つとし、検査対象基板の表面側及び裏面側を分離して検査できる装置を用いても、検査対象基板がますます薄くなると基板の表面側と裏面側と分離すること(つまり、表裏分離)が困難になる。
On the other hand, as shown in Patent Document 2, even if a single inspection optical system is used and a device that can inspect the front side and the back side of the inspection target substrate separately is used, the substrate becomes thinner as the inspection target substrate becomes thinner. It becomes difficult to separate the front surface side and the back surface side (that is, front / back separation).
図5は、従来の基板検査装置を用いて基板の表裏面を検査する様子を示す概念図であり、検査対象となる基板に照明光を照射して基板に付着した異物で乱反射した散乱光を撮像する様子と、撮像した散乱光の強度を複合的に図示したものである。なお、図5(a)は、従来より検査対象とされてきた基板Wz(厚み:tz)について検査する様子が示されており、図5(b)は、従来より薄い基板W(厚み:t)について検査する様子が示されている。照明部から照射された照明光32zは、基板Wz,Wの表面側に付着した異物X1、基板Wz,Wの裏面側に付着した異物X2の表面でそれぞれ乱反射し、それらの散乱光が、撮像部4zの撮像カメラ42zにて撮像される。
FIG. 5 is a conceptual diagram showing a state in which the front and back surfaces of a substrate are inspected using a conventional substrate inspection apparatus, and the scattered light irregularly reflected by a foreign substance attached to the substrate by irradiating illumination light onto the substrate to be inspected. A state in which an image is captured and the intensity of the captured scattered light are illustrated in a composite manner. FIG. 5A shows a state in which a substrate Wz (thickness: tz) that has been conventionally inspected is inspected, and FIG. 5B shows a substrate W (thickness: t) that is thinner than the conventional one. ) Is shown. The illumination light 32z emitted from the illumination unit is irregularly reflected on the surface of the foreign matter X1 attached to the front side of the substrates Wz and W and the surface of the foreign matter X2 attached to the back side of the substrates Wz and W, and the scattered light is imaged. The image is captured by the imaging camera 42z of the unit 4z.
従来の基板Wzであれば、表面側の異物X1,裏面側の異物X2の散乱光の強度はそれぞれ干渉し合わないため、分離した状態で検出することができた。しかし、従来より薄い基板Wでは、表面側の異物X1,裏面側の異物X2の散乱光の強度はそれぞれ干渉するため、表裏分離して検査精度を維持することが困難となる。
In the case of the conventional substrate Wz, the scattered light intensities of the foreign matter X1 on the front surface side and the foreign matter X2 on the back surface side do not interfere with each other, and thus can be detected in a separated state. However, in the case of the substrate W thinner than the conventional one, since the scattered light intensities of the foreign matter X1 on the front surface side and the foreign matter X2 on the back surface side interfere with each other, it is difficult to separate the front and back and maintain the inspection accuracy.
そこで、本発明は、検査対象基板が薄くなっても、表裏分離して検査精度を維持できる、光学的な検査装置を提供することを目的とする。
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an optical inspection apparatus capable of maintaining inspection accuracy by separating the front and back sides even when the inspection target substrate becomes thin.

That is, for the first surface S1 of the substrate W,

斜め方向から照明光が照射される。 The illuminating
Illumination light is irradiated from an oblique direction.
具体的には、照明部4は、半導体レーザやLED、ランプ光源などを用いたものが例示でき、レンズやミラーなどを介して照明光が検査対象領域に向けて照射される。より具体的には、半導体レーザを用いた場合であれば、シリンドリカルレンズなどを介し、ライトシート状の照明光として照射する構成が例示できる。また、照明部4から照射される照明光は、図1に示す様に、直接検査対象領域に照射しても良いし、反射ミラーなどで反射させてから検査対象領域に照射しても良い。
Specifically, the illumination unit 4 can be exemplified by a semiconductor laser, an LED, a lamp light source, or the like, and illumination light is irradiated toward the inspection target region through a lens, a mirror, or the like. More specifically, in the case of using a semiconductor laser, a configuration in which light is irradiated as light sheet-like illumination light through a cylindrical lens or the like can be exemplified. Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the illumination light emitted from the illuminating unit 4 may be directly applied to the inspection target region, or may be applied to the inspection target region after being reflected by a reflection mirror or the like.
撮像部4は、検査対象領域を撮像するものである。そして、撮像部4は、基板Wの第1の面S1側に設定された第1面側検査対象領域若しくは基板Wの第2の面S2側に設定された第2面側検査対象領域を、第1の面S1側から観察するものである。そして、基板第1面撮像部4は、前記基板の第1の面S1に対して所定の角度θ1をなして第1面側検査対象領域V1を撮像するように配置されている。つまり、基板Wの第1の面S1に対して、斜め方向から検査対象領域が撮像される。
The imaging unit 4 images the inspection target area. And the imaging part 4 is the 1st surface side inspection object area | region set to the 1st surface S1 side of the board | substrate W, or the 2nd surface side inspection object area | region set to the 2nd surface S2 side of the board | substrate W, It is observed from the first surface S1 side. The substrate first surface imaging unit 4 is arranged to image the first surface-side inspection target region V1 at a predetermined angle θ1 with respect to the first surface S1 of the substrate. That is, the inspection target region is imaged from the oblique direction with respect to the first surface S1 of the substrate W.
具体的には、撮像部4は、撮像カメラ42と、レンズ43とを含んで構成されている。より具体的には、撮像カメラ42は、撮像素子44として、CCD,CMOSなどのエリアセンサやラインセンサ、TDIセンサを備えたものが例示できる。そして、撮像カメラ42は、撮像素子44で受光した像に対応した映像信号や画像データを外部へ出力することができる。図1には、撮像素子49として、ラインセンサを備えた構成が示されている。
Specifically, the imaging unit 4 includes an imaging camera 42 and a lens 43. More specifically, the imaging camera 42 can be exemplified by an imaging device 44 that includes an area sensor such as a CCD or CMOS, a line sensor, or a TDI sensor. The imaging camera 42 can output a video signal and image data corresponding to the image received by the imaging device 44 to the outside. FIG. 1 shows a configuration including a line sensor as the image sensor 49.
なお、撮像部4は、基板Wの第1の面S1若しくは基板Wの第2の面のどちらか一方に焦点を合わせて撮像する構成としておく。
Note that the imaging unit 4 is configured to perform imaging while focusing on either the first surface S1 of the substrate W or the second surface of the substrate W.
例えば、撮像部4は、基板Wとの距離が固定された状態で装置フレーム11に取り付けられた構成としておく。そうすることで、撮像部4は、基板Wの第1の面S1若しくは基板Wの第2の面のどちらか一方について検査をすることができる。
For example, the imaging unit 4 is configured to be attached to the apparatus frame 11 with the distance from the substrate W being fixed. By doing so, the imaging unit 4 can inspect either the first surface S1 of the substrate W or the second surface of the substrate W.
或いは、撮像部4は、撮像位置を変更する機構(例えば、カメラ位置変更部)を介して装置フレーム15に取り付けられた構成としても良い。この場合、カメラ位置変更部は、基板Wの厚み、基板Wの屈折率及び撮像カメラ42が法線H1に対して斜めに取り付けられている所定の角度θ1から算出される光路の差分がシフト移動できる構成としておく。このシフト移動の方向は、基板Wの厚み、基板Wの屈折率、撮像カメラ42が法線H1に対して斜めに取り付けられている所定の角度θ1、並びに、撮像部4のレンズ43の作動距離(いわゆるワーキングディスタンス)により算出される。
Alternatively, the imaging unit 4 may be configured to be attached to the device frame 15 via a mechanism (for example, a camera position changing unit) that changes the imaging position. In this case, the camera position changing unit shifts and shifts the optical path difference calculated from the thickness of the substrate W, the refractive index of the substrate W, and the predetermined angle θ1 where the imaging camera 42 is mounted obliquely with respect to the normal line H1. It is set as the structure which can be performed. The direction of this shift movement is the thickness of the substrate W, the refractive index of the substrate W, the predetermined angle θ1 at which the imaging camera 42 is mounted obliquely with respect to the normal H1, and the working distance of the lens 43 of the imaging unit 4 Calculated by (so-called working distance).
なお、カメラ位置変更部の具体的な構成としては、上述のシフト移動の方向に延びるガイドレール、ボールねじ及び手回し用ハンドルを備えた手動アクチュエータや、前記手回しハンドルに代えて回転モータを備えた電動アクチュエータなどが例示できる。なお、上述のアクチュエータは上述のシフト移動方向(つまり、1軸方向)にのみ移動する機構だけでなく、基板Wの表面と平行な方向(X方向)と厚み方向(Z方向)に(つまり、2軸方向に)移動する機構であっても良い。
As a specific configuration of the camera position changing unit, a manual actuator including a guide rail extending in the shift movement direction, a ball screw, and a handwheel handle, or an electric motor including a rotation motor instead of the handwheel handle is provided. An actuator etc. can be illustrated. The actuator described above is not only a mechanism that moves only in the shift movement direction (that is, the uniaxial direction), but also in a direction (X direction) parallel to the surface of the substrate W and a thickness direction (the Z direction) (that is, It may be a mechanism that moves in two axial directions.
撮像部4は、この様な構成のカメラ位置変更部を介して取り付けられているので、段取り替えにより、基板Wの第1の面S1若しくは第2の面S2を選択し、どちらか一方の検査対象領域に焦点を合わせて検査することができる。
Since the imaging unit 4 is attached via the camera position changing unit having such a configuration, the first surface S1 or the second surface S2 of the substrate W is selected by changing the setup, and one of the inspections is performed. Inspection can be performed with a focus on the target area.
検査部5は、撮像部4で撮像した画像に基づいて基板Wの表面状態を検査するものである。このとき、検査部5は、基板Wの第1の面S1又は第2の面S2について、撮像し、それらの表面状態を検査する。具体的には、検査部5は、いわゆる画像処理装置(ハードウェア)と画像処理プログラム(ソフトウェア)により構成することができる。そして、撮像カメラ42や撮像カメラ47から出力された映像信号や画像データは、画像処理装置IMに入力された後、検査部5では、所定の画像処理を行いつつ、予め設定された検査基準に基づく検査が行われる。
The inspection unit 5 inspects the surface state of the substrate W based on the image captured by the imaging unit 4. At this time, the inspection unit 5 captures an image of the first surface S1 or the second surface S2 of the substrate W and inspects the surface state thereof. Specifically, the inspection unit 5 can be configured by a so-called image processing device (hardware) and an image processing program (software). Then, after the video signal and image data output from the imaging camera 42 and the imaging camera 47 are input to the image processing apparatus IM, the inspection unit 5 performs predetermined image processing, and sets a predetermined inspection standard. Based on the inspection.
具体的には、検査部5では、画像に含まれる輝点を検出し、それぞれの輝点の輝度情報や占有画素数などから異物としての粒径を判定し、ラベリング処理し、どれくらいの大きさの粒径の異物が何個存在するかを検査(いわゆる異物検出検査)が行われる。
Specifically, the inspection unit 5 detects the bright spot included in the image, determines the particle size as a foreign substance from the brightness information of each bright spot, the number of occupied pixels, and the like, performs a labeling process, and how large the size is. An inspection (so-called foreign object detection inspection) is performed to determine how many foreign substances having a particle size of 5 are present.
相対移動部6は、検査対象となる基板Wに対して、照明部3及び撮像部4を相対的に移動させるものである。
The relative movement unit 6 moves the illumination unit 3 and the imaging unit 4 relative to the substrate W to be inspected.
具体的には、相対移動部6は、いわゆるXYステージを用いて具現化することができ、装置フレーム11上に取り付けられてスライダーをX方向に所定の速度で移動させ所定の位置で静止させるX軸ステージ61と、X軸ステージ61のスライダー上に取り付けられてスライダーをY方向に所定の速度で移動させ所定の位置で静止させるY軸ステージ62を備えて構成されている。Y軸ステージ62のスライダー上には、基板載置台20が取り付けられている。そうすることで、基板載置台20に載置された基板Wに対して、照明部3と撮像部4とを相対移動させることができ、基板W全体を複数回分割スキャンして撮像・検査することができる。
Specifically, the relative moving unit 6 can be realized by using a so-called XY stage, and is attached on the apparatus frame 11 to move the slider in the X direction at a predetermined speed and to stop at a predetermined position. An axis stage 61 and a Y-axis stage 62 mounted on the slider of the X-axis stage 61 and moving the slider in the Y direction at a predetermined speed and stopping at a predetermined position are configured. On the slider of the Y-axis stage 62, the substrate mounting table 20 is attached. By doing so, the illumination unit 3 and the imaging unit 4 can be moved relative to the substrate W placed on the substrate mounting table 20, and the entire substrate W is imaged and inspected by being divided and scanned a plurality of times. be able to.
また、必要に応じて、Y軸ステージ62のスライダーと基板載置台20との間には、回転テーブル機構を備えた構成であっても良い。そうすることで、基板Wの角度を変更することができ、基板Wの位置ずれ修正をしたり、基板の撮像・検査や受取・受渡などの方向を90度、180度、270度と変更したりすることができる。
Further, if necessary, a configuration in which a rotary table mechanism is provided between the slider of the Y-axis stage 62 and the substrate mounting table 20 may be used. By doing so, it is possible to change the angle of the substrate W, correct the positional deviation of the substrate W, and change the direction of imaging / inspection and receipt / delivery of the substrate to 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees. Can be.
図2は、本発明を具現化する基板検査装置を用いて、従来よりも薄い基板の表裏面を検査する様子を示す概念図であり、検査対象となる基板に照明光を照射して基板に付着した異物で乱反射した散乱光を撮像する様子と、撮像した散乱光の強度を複合的に図示したものである。照明部から照射された照明光32は、基板Wの表面側に付着した異物X1、基板WW(厚み:t)の裏面側に付着した異物X2の表面でそれぞれ乱反射し、それらの散乱光が、撮像部4の撮像カメラ42にて撮像される。この場合、観察部4が、基板Wの表面側(つまり、第1の面S1側)の法線H1に対して所定の角度θ1をなして配置されている。
FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram showing a state in which the front and back surfaces of a substrate thinner than the conventional one are inspected by using the substrate inspection apparatus embodying the present invention, and the substrate to be inspected is irradiated with illumination light to the substrate. The state of imaging scattered light that has been diffusely reflected by an attached foreign object and the intensity of the captured scattered light are illustrated in a composite manner. The illumination light 32 irradiated from the illumination unit is irregularly reflected on the surface of the foreign matter X1 attached to the front surface side of the substrate W and the surface of the foreign matter X2 attached to the back surface side of the substrate WW (thickness: t). The image is captured by the imaging camera 42 of the imaging unit 4. In this case, the observation unit 4 is arranged at a predetermined angle θ1 with respect to the normal H1 on the surface side of the substrate W (that is, the first surface S1 side).
なお、本発明を適用するにあたり、ライトシート状の照明光の厚み32t(つまり、XZ方向の幅)は、検査対象となる基板Wの厚さの1/3以下(好ましくは、1/4以下)に設定しておく。これは、照明光の厚みを基板Wの厚さに対して十分に薄くしておくことで、同一面(第1の面の検査時なら第1の面)や反対側(第1の面の検査時なら第2の面)に存在する他の異物からの散乱光が同時に撮像されることを防止し、所望の検査結果を得ることができる。
In applying the present invention, the light sheet-like illumination light thickness 32t (that is, the width in the XZ direction) is 1/3 or less (preferably 1/4 or less) of the thickness of the substrate W to be inspected. ). This is because the illumination light is made sufficiently thin relative to the thickness of the substrate W so that the same surface (the first surface when the first surface is inspected) or the opposite side (the first surface). It is possible to prevent scattered light from other foreign substances existing on the second surface) at the time of inspection from being simultaneously imaged and obtain a desired inspection result.
この様な構成をしているため、基板検査装置1を用いて検査することで、基板の表面側(つまり、第1の面S1側)を撮像して取得した画像は、基板の裏面側(つまり、第2の面S2側)の状態に影響を受けずに所定の検査を行うことができる。さらに、基板の裏面側(つまり、第2の面S2側)を撮像して取得した画像は、基板の表面側(つまり、第1の面S1側)の状態に影響を受けず、所定の検査を行うことができる。そのため、検査対象基板が薄くなっても、表裏分離して検査精度を維持できる。
Since it has such a configuration, an image acquired by imaging the front side of the substrate (that is, the first surface S1 side) by inspecting using the substrate inspection apparatus 1 is the back side ( That is, the predetermined inspection can be performed without being affected by the state on the second surface S2 side. Furthermore, the image acquired by imaging the back side of the substrate (that is, the second surface S2 side) is not affected by the state of the surface side of the substrate (that is, the first surface S1 side), and is subjected to a predetermined inspection. It can be performed. Therefore, even if the inspection target substrate becomes thin, the inspection accuracy can be maintained by separating the front and back.

具体的には、基板第1面撮像部41は、上述の撮像部4と同様の、撮像カメラ42と、レンズ43とを含んで構成され、基板第2面撮像部46は、撮像カメラ42と同様の撮像カメラ47と、レンズ43と同様のレンズ48とを含んで構成されている。
Specifically, the board first surface imaging unit 41 is configured to include an imaging camera 42 and a lens 43 similar to the imaging unit 4 described above, and the board second surface imaging unit 46 is configured with the imaging camera 42. A similar imaging camera 47 and a lens 48 similar to the lens 43 are included.
なお、基板Wの品種替えがなければ(つまり、厚みと屈折率とが一定であれば)、基板第1面側撮像部41の撮像カメラ42と、基板第2面側撮像部46の撮像カメラ47とは、互いに固定された状態にしておく。一方、基板Wの品種切替がある(つまり、厚み若しくは屈折率が一定でない)場合には、撮像カメラ42,47の少なくともどちらか一方が、基板Wの厚み方向に位置を変更する機構を介して装置フレーム15に取り付けられた構成としても良い。
If there is no change in the type of the substrate W (that is, if the thickness and refractive index are constant), the imaging camera 42 of the substrate first surface side imaging unit 41 and the imaging camera of the substrate second surface side imaging unit 46 will be described. 47 is fixed to each other. On the other hand, when there is a product type change of the substrate W (that is, the thickness or the refractive index is not constant), at least one of the imaging cameras 42 and 47 passes through a mechanism that changes the position in the thickness direction of the substrate W. It is good also as a structure attached to the apparatus flame | frame 15.
この形態の場合、検査部5Bは、基本的な構成は上述の検査部5と同様であるが、基板Wの第1の面S1と第2の面S2の双方を撮像し、それらの表面状態を検査する構成としておく。
In the case of this embodiment, the inspection unit 5B has the same basic configuration as the above-described inspection unit 5, but images both the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 of the substrate W, and their surface states. It is set as the structure which inspects.

In the above description, therelative movement unit 6 that moves the illumination unit 3 and the imaging unit 4 relative to the substrate to be inspected is provided.
Theimaging unit 4 includes a line sensor having a predetermined length in a direction orthogonal to the direction of relative movement,
Theillumination unit 3 has been described with respect to a configuration that irradiates a light sheet-like illumination light onto an inspection target region imaged by a line sensor.

この構成であれば、解像度の高いラインセンサを用いて検査を行うことができ、照明光線の照射範囲を最小限にすることができるため、コストダウンやサイズダウンが容易となる。さらに、同一面(第1の面の検査時なら第1の面)や反対側(第1の面の検査時なら第2の面)に存在する他の異物からの散乱光を同時に撮像してしまうことに起因して、所望の検査結果を正しく得ることができないと言う不具合を防ぐことができるので、より好ましい形態と言える。
With this configuration, inspection can be performed using a line sensor with high resolution, and the irradiation range of illumination light can be minimized, so that cost reduction and size reduction are facilitated. Furthermore, the scattered light from other foreign substances existing on the same surface (first surface when inspecting the first surface) or on the opposite side (second surface when inspecting the first surface) is simultaneously imaged. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a problem that a desired inspection result cannot be obtained correctly.
しかし、本発明を具現化する上では、この形態に限らず、下記の様な構成として良い。
つまり、撮像部4にはエリアセンサを用い、照明部3は、エリアセンサーで撮像する検査対象領域を含む範囲に照明光を照射する構成である。この場合、検査対象となる基板Wに対して照明部3と撮像部4とを相対移動させながら、照明光をストロボ発光させて撮像を繰り返す(いわゆる、分割撮像)構成、若しくは、照明光を連続照射しながら、断続的に撮像を行う(これも、分割撮像の一類型)構成とする。或いは、相対移動部を備えず、検査対象領域Rをエリアセンサーカメラを用いて一括で撮像する構成としても良い。 However, in order to embody the present invention, the present invention is not limited to this configuration, and the following configuration may be used.
That is, an area sensor is used for theimaging unit 4, and the illumination unit 3 is configured to irradiate illumination light to a range including an inspection target region imaged by the area sensor. In this case, the illumination unit 3 and the imaging unit 4 are relatively moved with respect to the substrate W to be inspected, and the illumination light is stroboscopically emitted to repeat imaging (so-called divided imaging), or the illumination light is continuously applied. It is set as the structure which image-shoots intermittently (it is also a kind of division | segmentation imaging), irradiating. Or it is good also as a structure which is not provided with a relative movement part and image | photographs test object area | region R collectively using an area sensor camera.
つまり、撮像部4にはエリアセンサを用い、照明部3は、エリアセンサーで撮像する検査対象領域を含む範囲に照明光を照射する構成である。この場合、検査対象となる基板Wに対して照明部3と撮像部4とを相対移動させながら、照明光をストロボ発光させて撮像を繰り返す(いわゆる、分割撮像)構成、若しくは、照明光を連続照射しながら、断続的に撮像を行う(これも、分割撮像の一類型)構成とする。或いは、相対移動部を備えず、検査対象領域Rをエリアセンサーカメラを用いて一括で撮像する構成としても良い。 However, in order to embody the present invention, the present invention is not limited to this configuration, and the following configuration may be used.
That is, an area sensor is used for the

なお、本発明を具現化する上で、照明部3は、照明光が基板Wの第1の面S1の法線H1に対して10~20度の範囲内で照射されるように配置されており、撮像部4の撮像カメラ42は、基板Wの第1の面S1の法線H1に対する角度θ1が40~80度の範囲内に設定されて、検査対象領域を観察する様に配置されていることが好ましい。 [Another form]
In embodying the present invention, the illuminatingunit 3 is arranged so that the illumination light is irradiated within a range of 10 to 20 degrees with respect to the normal H1 of the first surface S1 of the substrate W. The imaging camera 42 of the imaging unit 4 is arranged so that the angle θ1 with respect to the normal H1 of the first surface S1 of the substrate W is set within a range of 40 to 80 degrees and the inspection target region is observed. Preferably it is.
なお、本発明を具現化する上で、照明部3は、照明光が基板Wの第1の面S1の法線H1に対して10~20度の範囲内で照射されるように配置されており、撮像部4の撮像カメラ42は、基板Wの第1の面S1の法線H1に対する角度θ1が40~80度の範囲内に設定されて、検査対象領域を観察する様に配置されていることが好ましい。 [Another form]
In embodying the present invention, the illuminating
撮像部4の設定角度θ1は、90度より小さくなるなるにつれ、表裏分離特性が向上する。しかし、小さく(傾斜)しすぎると、第1の面S1での表面反射成分が増えてしまい、第2の面S2の検査に必要な光量が低下してしまう。そのため、撮像部4を傾斜させる角度θ1は、上述の範囲内が好ましい。
As the set angle θ1 of the imaging unit 4 becomes smaller than 90 degrees, the front / back separation characteristics are improved. However, if it is too small (inclined), the surface reflection component on the first surface S1 increases, and the amount of light necessary for the inspection of the second surface S2 decreases. Therefore, the angle θ1 for inclining the imaging unit 4 is preferably within the above-described range.
この様な構成にしておくことで、正反射の影響を受けず、散乱光を正確に撮像することができる。さらに、第2の面側の検査を行う際に、光量低下を招くこともなく、表裏分離して検査精度を維持できる。
With such a configuration, the scattered light can be accurately imaged without being affected by regular reflection. Furthermore, when performing the inspection on the second surface side, the inspection accuracy can be maintained by separating the front and back without causing a decrease in the amount of light.
なお、撮像部4Bとして、基板第1面側撮像部41と、基板第2面側撮像部46とを別々に備えた構成であれば、撮像カメラ42,47がいずれも、基板Wの第1の面S1の法線H1に対する角度が40~80度の範囲内に設定し、検査対象領域を観察する様に配置されていることが好ましい。
Note that if the imaging unit 4B has a configuration in which the substrate first surface side imaging unit 41 and the substrate second surface side imaging unit 46 are separately provided, the imaging cameras 42 and 47 both have the first of the substrate W. It is preferable that the angle of the surface S1 with respect to the normal H1 is set within a range of 40 to 80 degrees and the inspection target region is observed.
