Abstract: Disclosed is a method for measuring a thickness of a subjecting layer attacked on a base layer by means of an interferometer, which includes the steps of: obtaining a correlation equation of a phase difference with respect to thicknesses of sample layers, the thicknesses being different from each other, the sample layers being made from a material substantially equal to a material of the subjecting layer; obtaining a first interference signal with respect to an optical axial direction incident to the base layer at a boundary surface between an air layer and the base layer; obtaining a second interference signal with respect to the optical axial direction at a boundary surface between the subjecting layer and the base layer; obtaining a phase difference between a phase of the first interference signal and a phase of the second interference signal at respective heights substantially equal to each other with respect to the optical axial direction; and determining a thickness of the subjecting layer by inserting

Abstract: A plasma monitoring device includes a plasma supplier including a power supply, a reaction gas supply line, and an emission nozzle for emitting plasma, which is generated therein, toward an object; a camera unit for obtaining an image of the plasma emission state; and a controller for obtaining a measurement value by converting pixel information of the image into a numerical value and comparing it with a reference value, which is a measurement value in a normal emission state, to check the plasma emission state. The camera unit obtains an image of the plasma emission state, and the controller analyzes the image to obtain a measurement value, which is used to monitor the state of plasma in real time and control the amount of reaction gas supplied to the plasma supplier and the plasma discharge condition, so that plasma is evenly emitted from the plasma supplier.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for fabricating a scanning probe microscope (SPM) nanoneedle probe using an ion beam, a SPM nanoneedle probe, a method of fabricating a critical dimension scanning probe microscope (CD-SPM) nanoneedle probe using an ion beam, a CD-SPM nanoneedle probe, and uses thereof. A disclosed method can comprise: positioning the probe so that a tip of the probe on which the nanoneedle is attached faces toward a direction in which the ion beam is irradiated; and aligning the nanoneedle attached on the tip of the probe with the ion beam in parallel by irradiating the ion beam toward the tip of the probe on which the nanoneedle is attached.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for blocking a specific network in a mobile communication terminal are provided. The method includes adding a first network to a blocked network list, when the first network is the only network available to provide service to a terminal, temporarily removing the first network from the blocked network list and temporarily receiving service from the first network. Thus, the user does not have to pay roaming fees in the unwanted network, suffer from undesired communication quality, or use unwanted additional functions.
