SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING A SAMPLE BY X-RAY REFLECTANCE SCATTEROMETRY

Abstract:

A system and method for measuring a sample by X-ray reflectance scatterometry. The method may include impinging an incident X-ray beam on a sample having a periodic structure to generate a scattered X-ray beam, the incident X-ray beam simultaneously providing a plurality of incident angles and a plurality of azimuthal angles; and collecting at least a portion of the scattered X-ray beam.
