Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of spectral resolved interferometry, and particularly relates to a method, system, device and medium for extracting the phase of a spectral interference pattern. Background Art

[0002] Spectrally Resolved Interferometry (SRI) is an advanced measurement technique based on the principle of low-coherence light interference, which solves the absolute distance in the spectral domain. After obtaining the spectrally resolved interference pattern with spectral dispersion of the interference beam, algorithms such as Fourier transform, wavelet transform and multi-step phase shift can be used to extract the phase, and then high-precision one-dimensional profile information can be obtained. Since the height information at a point is determined by the linear relationship between the phase information of the spectral component axis and the wavenumber, SRI can avoid the phase ambiguity problem and has excellent anti-noise performance.

[0003] Although methods such as Fourier transform, window Fourier transform and wavelet transform are widely used in phase extraction, they require high-frequency fringes on the spectral component axis of the interference pattern, which limits the performance of SRI in measuring physical quantities with short optical path differences. In addition, although the time phase shift algorithm has the ability to extract the phase with high precision and is not limited by the fringe frequency, only the multi-step phase shift algorithm, especially the five-step phase shift algorithm, can be applied to the phase extraction in SRI due to its immunity to phase shift misalignment. This algorithm not only requires obtaining five frames of interference patterns, but also requires uniform phase shift, increasing the experimental complexity and cost.

[0004] It should be noted that high-performance algorithms such as random phase shift algorithm and advanced iterative algorithm are difficult to be popularized in SRI. This is because the phase shifts of different wavelengths along the spectral component axis are different, which conflicts with the assumption of frame-to-frame phase shift consistency relied on by these high-performance algorithms. This limitation further highlights the deficiencies and challenges of the existing technology in SRI phase extraction. Therefore, developing new phase extraction algorithms to overcome these defects and improve the measurement accuracy and applicability of SRI is an important direction of current research.

[0050] As the size of semiconductor devices continues to shrink, the influence of the contour accuracy of microstructures on device performance becomes more and more significant. Spectral resolution interference can achieve surface topography measurement accurate to the nanometer level, ensuring that the size and shape of micro-device structures meet the design requirements, thereby improving the quality and performance of the final product. Traditional surface measurement methods such as contact probes or scanning electron microscopes often have contact interference or destructiveness, especially in the surface measurement of flexible materials or thin-film devices, which may lead to measurement errors. At the same time, spectral resolution interference is a non-contact measurement technology that can avoid damage to the material surface and ensure the integrity and accuracy of the measurement. By achieving high-precision contour measurement through spectral resolution interference, defects or unqualified microstructures can be detected early in the manufacturing process, reducing the defective product rate and improving production efficiency. This is particularly important for large-scale production of semiconductor devices, which can effectively reduce production costs and improve the controllability of the production process.

[0051] Based on this, this embodiment mainly embodies an iterative method of tilt phase shift based on a spectral interferogram reconstruction strategy, aiming to improve the accuracy of phase extraction in spectral interference technology, the ability to resist environmental noise, and the ability to have a wider scene adaptability. Specifically, in this embodiment, a cubic interpolation function is selected as the specific expression of the reconstruction function, the phase of the spectral interferogram, the phase shift along the wave number axis, and the phase shift along the spatial axis are iterated in sequence, a blazed grating is selected as the dispersion component, the contour of the step structure is used as the measurement object in a specific implementation case, and the step height error is used as the measurement standard.

[0052] To achieve the above object, this embodiment provides a method for extracting the phase of a spectral interferogram by an iterative method after reconstructing the intensity information of the spectral interferogram. The specific process includes the following steps:

[0053] In the spectral domain, the coordinate axes of the intensity interferogram collected at the imaging end are the spatial position and the wave number axis, and the mathematical expression is written as:

[0054]

[0055] Among them, the subscript n is the spectral resolution interferogram number, x is the spatial position axis of the line profile to be measured, k is the wave number axis representing the spectral component, I r (k), I s (k) are the intensities of the reference arm and the test arm, and their distributions are related to the source spectrum function. The phase φ(x, k) satisfies the relationship φ(x, k) = 4πkh at the spatial position x and the wave number k, where h is the height at the spatial position x, and δ n (x, k) is the phase shift.

[0056] Based on this, in spectral resolution interference, the phase shift sensitivities of different wave numbers are different, and there is a non-linear mapping between the position of the spectral component in the interferogram and the pixel coordinates. Therefore, the phase shift distribution between frames is uneven and unknown. In this embodiment, data points {[k1, I n (x, k1)], [k2, I n (x, k2)], …, [k P , I n (x, k P )]} are extracted from each row of pixels of each interferogram in turn (the total number of pixels in one row is P), and a cubic spline interpolation function Γ(k) is defined on each sub-interval [k p , k p+1 .

[0057] Furthermore, it is determined by the numerical continuity, first-order and second-order derivative continuity of the interpolation function to ensure the smooth transition of the curve. After determining Γ(k), the light intensity values on the row pixels are reconstructed by equidistant interpolation, and a linear relationship is presented between the reconstructed pixel coordinates and the wavenumber. In addition, the phase shifts of different wavenumbers are linearly related to the wavenumber itself, and thus the image reconstruction essentially realizes the regular mapping between the pixel coordinates and the inter-frame phase shifts.

[0058] Based on this, the reconstructed interferogram becomes uniform along the wavenumber axis, and the inter-frame is a linearly inclined phase shift along the wavenumber direction. For the sake of easy expression, let the phase shift δ n (x, k) be decomposed into the uniform phase shift δ n (x) along the x-axis and the inclined phase shift δ n (k) + u n sum of k, where u n is the inclination coefficient. The reconstructed spectral resolution interferogram Ir n (x, k) is expressed as:

[0059] Ir n (x, k) = A(k) + B(k)cos[φ(x, k) + δ n (x) + δ n (k) + u n k]

[0060] Based on this, the proposed inclined phase shift iterative method can extract the phase from at least 3 frames of spectral resolution interferograms with random phase shifts. Assuming that the phase shifts δ n (x, k) of N frames are known, the phase φ(x, k) of the spectral resolution interferogram is to be found. The theoretical interferogram is expressed as:

[0061] Ir n (x, k) = a(k) + b(x, k)cosδ n (x, k) + c(x, k)sinδ n (x, k)

[0062] where the unknowns a(k) = A(k), b(x, k) = B(k)cos[φ(x, k)], c(x, k) = -B(k)sin[φ(x, k)]. Let Is n (x, k) represent the experimental interferogram, and then the least squares error is:

[0063]

[0064] For the known δ n (x, k), the least squares criterion should be satisfied: It is represented by a matrix as:

[0065] X = U -1 V

[0066] where

[0067] X = [a(x,k), b(x,k), c(x,k)] T

[0068]

[0069] To ensure the non - singularity of matrix U, at least three interferograms with different phase shifts are required for calculation. The phase is calculated by the following formula:

[0070] φ(x,k) = tan -1 [-c(x,k) / b(x,k)]

[0071] Furthermore, assuming that the phase shift δ n (x) along the x - axis is known, and combining the obtained φ(x,k), find the phase shift δ n (k)+u n k. The theoretical interference light intensity is expressed as:

[0072] Ir n (x,k) = a'(k)+b'(k)cos[φ'(x,k)]+c'(k)sin[φ'(x,k)]

[0073] where the unknowns are a'(k) = A(k), b'(k) = B(k)cos[δ n (k)+unk], c'(k) = - B(k)sin[δ n (k)+unk], the known quantity is φ'(x,k) = φ(x,k)+δ n (x), and then the least - square error of the wave number k column in the nth frame is:

[0074]

[0075] In the formula, Q is the number of pixels in a column. Usually, the number of pixels in an interference pattern column or row is much larger than 3. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the non - singularity problem of the matrix. Applying the least - square method gives the matrix equation:

[0076] X' = U' -1 V'

[0077] where

[0078] X' = [a'(k), b'(k), c'(k)] T

[0079]

[0080] Furthermore, the phase shift D of the k-th column of wavenumbers in the n-th frame n (k) is calculated as follows:

[0081] D n (k) = tan -1 [-c'(k) / b'(k)]

[0082] To address the uncertainty of the wrapped arctangent function in the tilt amount of the reconstructed spectral-resolved interferogram along the k-axis, after phase-unwrapping D n (k), a linear regression is performed to obtain the tilt phase shift δ n (k) + u n k along the k-axis.

[0083] Furthermore, by combining the known phase φ(x,k) in the first step and the known phase shift δ n (k) + u n k along the k-direction in the second step, the phase shift δ n (x) along the x-axis is obtained. Assuming that A(k) and B(k) are invariant in each row of pixels, the theoretical interferogram is expressed as:

[0084] Ir n (x,k) = a'(x) + b'(x)cos[φ”(x,k)] + c'(x)sin[φ”(x,k)]

[0085] where the unknowns are a”(x) = A(k), b”(x) = B(k)cosδ n (x), c”(x) = -B(k)sinδ n (x), and the known φ”(x,k) = φ(x,k) + δ n (k) + u n k. Furthermore, the least-squares error for the x-th row of spatial positions in the n-th frame is:

[0086]

[0087] Applying the least-squares criterion gives the matrix equation:

[0088] X” = U” -1 V”

[0089] where

[0090] X” = [a”(x), b”(x), c”(x)] T

[0091]

[0092] Furthermore, the phase shift D of the x-th row of spatial positions in the n-th frame n (x) is calculated as follows:

[0093] Dn f(x) = tan -1 [-c”(x) / b”(x)]

[0094] For D n linear regression of f(x) gives a uniform phase shift δ along the x-axis n f(x).

[0095] Based on this, the iterative process completes the closed loop and sets the convergence condition as:

[0096]

[0097] where m represents the number of iterations, and ε1, ε2 are set precision thresholds (e.g., 1e-5). When a phase distribution that meets the precision threshold is obtained or after a certain number of iterations, an accurate spectral resolution phase map can be obtained.

[0098] This embodiment proposes a high-performance random phase shift algorithm applicable to the phase extraction of spectral interferograms, which mainly solves the applicability problem of the random phase shift algorithm in SRI. The main feature of this embodiment is that by reconstructing the relationship between the pixel position and the wave number in the spectral interferogram, the pixel position and the phase shift present a linear mapping, and further, the iterative calculation method in this embodiment can be directly used to extract the phase from at least three frames of randomly phase-shifted spectral interferograms. This embodiment is significantly superior to the commonly used Fourier transform method and the three-step phase shift algorithm in the industry in terms of accuracy, universality, and robustness. In short, the proposed random phase shift method not only eliminates the limitations of the phase shift in SRI but also breaks the traditional view that the phase shift method is not suitable for solving spectral interferograms. This embodiment provides a reference for the random phase shift method adopted in SRI, which will promote the practical and high-quality application of SRI in the profile measurement scenario in the semiconductor field.

[0099] Comparative Example 1: To verify the accuracy, noise resistance, and robustness of this embodiment in the actual measurement scenario, the applicant conducted relevant numerical simulations and used the calculation of the step height of the step structure in the line profile as a measurement standard. The measurement optical path is as Figure 3 shown. In the simulation, a step structure with a height of 5um was established. The center wavelength of the white light source used to generate 3 frames of spectral resolution interferograms is 532nm, the spectral width is 300nm, and the phase shifts of the 3 frames of interferograms are preset at 1.68rad, 2.41rad, and 4.40rad at the center wavelength, and additive Gaussian noise with a signal-to-noise ratio SNR = 20dB is added to the interferograms.

[0100] To compare with the commonly used phase extraction methods in the technical field, in this embodiment, the popular Fourier Transform (FT) and Three-step algorithms in spectral-resolved interferometry are selected for simulation comparison, and the step height is obtained from the difference between the mean lines of the upper and lower surfaces. After extracting the phase from the spectral-resolved interferogram by the three methods, the corresponding restored step heights are 5.0001um, 4.9987um, and 5.0167um respectively. The proposed embodiment in this example accurately and effectively obtains the step height from three frames of randomly phase-shifted spectral-resolved interferograms, with a difference of only 0.1nm from the standard height, and the error precision is at the sub-nanometer level.

[0101] To demonstrate the performance of this embodiment in spectral-resolved interferometry technology, Comparative Example 2 was conducted: First, in this embodiment, the performance of the proposed embodiment compared with the two comparative algorithms of FT and Three-step was compared in the range of signal-to-noise ratio from 15 to 60dB, and other parameters were kept consistent with Comparative Example 1. As Figure 4 (a) shows, the proposed embodiment in this example is significantly better than the FT and Three-step methods in solving the step height. As the noise level increases, the errors of the step heights solved by the Three-step and the proposed embodiment increase, while the accuracy of the FT method mainly depends on the filtering window and the carrier frequency, so it is less sensitive to the noise level. Secondly, in Figure 4 (b), the solving effects of the three algorithms applied to the spectral-resolved interferograms generated by different step heights are compared. It can be seen that the proposed method is better than the Three-step in overall accuracy and is not affected by the step height, and is applicable to the contour measurement environment with various height differences.

[0102] The above takes a certain measurement object as an example to introduce in detail a tilt phase-shift iterative method based on a spectral interferogram reconstruction strategy in this embodiment. In the content of this embodiment, a blazed grating is used as the dispersion component, a slit is used as the contour filter device, a piezoelectric ceramic actuator is used as the mechanical mechanism for generating micro-displacements, an LED light source is used as the broadband light source for illumination, and the height difference of the step structure is used as the measurement reference. This specific spectral-resolved interferometric measurement system is to help relevant industry insiders better understand the idea and execution process of this embodiment.

[0103] This embodiment also provides a spectral-resolved interferometric system for micro-structure contour measurement, including:

[0104] A broadband beam is emitted by a light source 1. After passing through the beam expander and collimator module 2, it enters a beam splitter 3. The transmitted light enters an interference objective lens 5. The interference objective lens has a Mirau interference structure and is clamped by a PZT 4 to achieve positioning and micro-displacement driving. The measurement beam carries the topography information of the object to be measured under the action of the interference objective lens and then returns to the optical path system. After being reflected by the beam splitter, it enters a first plano-convex lens 7 for convergence, and a single contour to be measured is filtered out by a slit 8. The beam containing the contour to be measured is irradiated on a blazed grating 10 after passing through a second plano-convex lens 9, and then undergoes dispersion. After passing through a filter turntable 11 and a third plano-convex lens 12, the spectral interference pattern is collected by the target surface of a camera 13.

[0105] Meanwhile, for specific application measurement objects and algorithm processing flows, for example, the interpolation reconstruction function of the spectral interference pattern is set to quadratic interpolation, linear interpolation or other interpolation function forms, and the iteration order is the phase of the spectral interference pattern, the phase shift along the spatial axis, the phase shift along the wavelength axis or other iteration orders. Methods or application improvements based on the above similar objectives should be regarded as within the scope covered by this embodiment. These changes should fall within the protection scope of the claims attached to this embodiment.

[0106] As mentioned above, the above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be covered by the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
