Novel optical technique for microscopic imaging of water stains Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • We propose and experimentally demonstrate a fluorescent imaging technique for surface quality control of wet-cleaned silicon wafers. This simple technique allows sub-micron resolution and fast scanning, while it reveals significant information about water stains distribution. Distribution of water stains is measured using this novel technique and correlated to the surface structure.
