Publication number: 20100136717Abstract: An apparatus and method to inspect a defect of a semiconductor device. The amount of secondary electrons generated due to a scanning electron microscope (SEM) may depend on the topology of a pattern of a semiconductor substrate. The amount of secondary electrons emitted from a recess of an under layer is far smaller than that of secondary electrons emitted from a projection of a top layer. Since the recess is darker than the projection, a ratio of a value of a secondary electron signal of the under layer to a value of a secondary electron signal of the top layer may be increased in order to improve a pattern image used to inspect a defect in the under layer. To do this, a plurality of conditions under which electron beams (e-beams) are irradiated may be set, at least two may be selected out of the set conditions, and the pattern may be scanned under the selected conditions.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2009Publication date: June 3, 2010Applicant: Samsung Electronics Co., LtdInventors: Ji-Young SHIN, Young-Nam Kim, Jong-An KIM, Hyung-Suk CHO, Yu-Sin YANG
