Abstract:
Disclosed is a pattern inspection apparatus which easily and highly accurately detects a profile error (deviation) of at least one pattern having a cross section with projections and recesses. The inspection apparatus for the pattern 32 is for detecting the profile error of the pattern having a cross section with a projection and a recess. This inspection apparatus includes a plate 30 on which a pattern is mounted, light sources 40, 42 and 44 which can change angles of illuminating light emitted onto the pattern, within a range of 15 to 75 degrees with reference to the top surface of the pattern, and photodetectors 52 and 54 which can receive reflected light from the pattern at an angle within a range of 15 to 75 degrees with reference to the top surface of the pattern. The inspection apparatus is characterized by that the profile error of the pattern is detected based on an amount of the reflected light from an edge between the top surface and the side surface of each of the patterns.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect flatness (unevenness) of the surface of an over-coat layer on colored pixel layer of the color filter, with high precision. SOLUTION: An inspecting device includes a light source 34, placed on an upside nearly perpendicular to the surface of a plate 30 to emit brightline spectrum corresponding to the colored microparticles of a color filter 32, and a photoreceiver 36 placed obliquely above the plate surface to receive the reflected light from the color filter 32 on the plate 30 during inspection time with a spectral sensitivity corresponding to brightline spectrum of the light source, and a detecting means 44 where color signals corresponding to the aforementioned spectral sensitivity output from the photoreceiver is used to create a luminance distribution of the color and then the flatness (unevenness) is detected of the surface of an over-coat layer.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To give a flat light reflection face to reduce the loss of reflected light due to diffraction. SOLUTION: An active matrix type reflection liquid crystal element is provided with an array substrate having switching elements corresponding to picture elements and an array of picture element electrodes 32 connected to switching elements, and a counter substrate which has a transparent electrode facing the array of picture element electrodes 32 with a liquid crystal layer between them. Each picture element electrode 32 is formed so as to have an array of electrode studs, namely, split electrodes 68, Areas between studs are filled with an insulating material 64. The surface of the stud array is smoothed by chemical and mechanical polishing treatment. A dielectric light reflection film is provided on the flat surface of the stud array, and a liquid crystal molecule orienting film is provided on this film. COPYRIGHT: (C)1999,JPO
