Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nonlinear optical characterization, and in particular relates to a second harmonic characterization system based on phase code division multiple access. Background Art

[0002] Second harmonic generation (SHG) is a nonlinear optical microscopy characterization technique developed in recent years that produces second-order polarization by irradiating materials with high-intensity lasers. Among many characterization methods, second harmonics has demonstrated its ability to characterize the electric field and structural properties of material interfaces due to its non-destructive testing, high stability, and simple operation. For example, second harmonic characterization technology can be used to locate and identify structural defects such as stacking faults and dislocations in SiC wafers, and to characterize non-uniform strain information in materials. At the same time, time-dependent second harmonics can obtain information on interface state density and fixed oxide charge.

[0003] Currently, in the field of wafer characterization, second harmonic characterization technology is limited by certain inherent properties of its equipment. These devices mainly use single-beam technology to accurately characterize a single point on the surface of the material. Although this method can provide highly accurate data, its main limitations are that the characterization speed is slow and only a single point can be analyzed. This limitation has hindered the understanding of the comprehensive characteristics of the material to a certain extent, and there is a lack of efficiency due to the inability to effectively integrate and analyze multi-point data.

[0004] In order to more fully understand the characteristics of the material, it is particularly important to perform SHG characteristic analysis on the entire row or entire area of ​​the wafer. This analysis method not only provides detailed information on a specific point, but also reflects the properties of the material as a whole, which is crucial for a comprehensive evaluation of the material's characteristics. Therefore, developing a device that can perform SHG characterization on multiple points at the same time is of great significance to improving the overall characterization efficiency.
