Phase-modulation scatterometry
Phase-modulation scatterometry is a metrology technique for determining, by means of a phase modulator as a key device, the parameters of gratings. The main source of error to be dealt with are the fluctuations of the phase-modulation amplitude. The grating zeroth-order reflectance modulated by the phase modulator is converted into a signal by the photodetector. The measurables are the direct term and the first two harmonics of the signal.
