DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0041] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0042] Example 1

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a focusing device for wafer detection, including a light source emitting device 1, a first collimating lens 2, a first mask 3, a semi-transparent and semi-reflective prism 4, a plurality of second collimating lenses 5, a microscope objective 6, a converging lens 7 and a photodetector 8.

[0044] The light beam emitted by the light source emitting device 1 is collimated by the first collimating lens 2 and then incident on the first mask 3 to generate a linear array stripe structured light with alternating light and dark; the linear array stripe structured light passes through the semi-transparent and semi-reflective prism 4, multiple second collimating lenses 5 and the microscope objective lens 6 in sequence, and converges to the surface of the wafer 9 to be tested.

[0045] The surface of the wafer 9 to be tested reflects the linear array stripe structured light; the reflected linear array stripe structured light passes through the microscope objective 6, multiple second collimating lenses 5, the semi-transparent and semi-reflective prism 4 and the converging lens 7 in sequence, and converges to the photodetector 8; the photodetector 8 converts the linear array stripe structured light into a photocurrent signal to determine the defocus amount of the surface of the wafer 9 to be tested according to the photocurrent signal.

[0046] In this embodiment, the focusing device for wafer detection also includes an optical switch 10, a reflector 11 and an optical coupling device 12. The number of the first collimating lens 2, the first mask 3, the semi-transparent and semi-reflective prism 4, the converging lens 7 and the photodetector 8 are all multiple; the light source emitting device 1 emits a light beam to the optical switch 10, and the optical switch 10 includes multiple light beam exit channels, each light beam exit channel corresponds to a first collimating lens 2, and each first collimating lens 2 corresponds to a first mask 3; the light beam emitted by the light source emitting device 1 passes through the target light beam exit channel and is incident on the target first collimating lens 2, and after being collimated by the target first collimating lens 2, it is incident on the target first mask A linear array stripe structured light with alternating light and dark is generated on the plate 3; the reflected linear array stripe structured light passes through the microscope objective 6, multiple second collimating lenses 5, the target semi-transparent and semi-reflective prism 4 and the target converging lens 7 in sequence, and converges to the target photodetector 8; the reflector 11 is used to reflect the linear array stripe structured light passing through the multiple second collimating lenses 5 to the microscope objective 6; the optical coupling device 12 is used to converge the light beam emitted by the light source emitting device 1 and couple it into the optical fiber input port of the optical switch 10; the photodetector 8 is a PD detector or an APD detector.

[0047] The focusing device for wafer inspection provided in this embodiment includes two main optical paths: an optical path from the light source to the end of the wafer to be tested and an optical path from the end of the wafer to be tested to the PD detector. The light source emitting device 1 emits an LED light source, and the LED divergent light beam is converged by the optical fiber coupling device 12 and then coupled into the optical fiber input port of the optical switch 10; the LED light beam emitted through the light beam exit channel is shaped into a light beam with a small divergence angle by the corresponding first collimating lens 2, and then incident on the corresponding first mask 3.

[0048] Exemplarily, the focusing device for wafer inspection further includes a plurality of second masks 13. After the reflected linear stripe structured light passes through the semi-transparent and semi-reflective prism 4, it first passes through the second mask 13. If the light and dark interval positions of the reflected linear stripe structured light coincide with those of the second mask 13, the reflected linear stripe structured light passes through the second mask 13 and is incident on the converging lens 7. The light spot formed by the reflected linear stripe structured light passing through the converging lens 7 is located on the photosensitive surface of the PD detector or the APD detector, generating a photocurrent signal, and then the defocus amount of the surface of the wafer 9 to be tested is inferred based on the size of the photocurrent signal.

[0049] The optical switch 10 may be a mechanical optical switch or a MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) optical switch. Figure 2As shown in the figure, the working principle of the MEMS optical switch mainly involves moving or changing the angle of the MEMS micromirror through the drive of electrostatic force or magnetic force, so as to switch the input light to different output ends of the optical switch to achieve the switching and on-off of the optical path. This optical switch uses micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) technology to carve a number of tiny mirrors on the silicon crystal, and through the action of electrostatic force or electromagnetic force, these movable micromirrors are raised, lowered, rotated or moved. This mechanical movement then changes the propagation direction of the input light to achieve the on-off function of the optical path. This working mode of the MEMS optical switch gives it the advantages of low insertion loss, low crosstalk, low polarization sensitivity, etc., and at the same time has the characteristics of high extinction ratio and high switching speed and small size of waveguide switches.

In this embodiment, the specific value of the target stripe movement amount (i.e., the distance between the first position and the second position) is equivalent to the magnitude of the photocurrent signal.

[0059] In summary, the focusing method provided in this embodiment can provide accurate real-time focusing for different wafers to be tested, overcome the influence of the pattern shape and reflectivity differences of the test points on the wafer on the measurement results during the focusing process relying only on the defocus relationship calibration curve, and improve the imaging quality and defect detection sensitivity.
