    Abstract: A local area of a sample is focally heated to produce a transient physical deformation. The surface of the structure is optically monitored while the heated area cools to a baseline temperature by illuminating the heated region with one or more probe beams from time to time and detecting returning light. In some embodiments heat dissipation within the structure is correlated with change in optical reflectivity over time. In other embodiments, surface deformation of the structure is correlated with changes in light scattering from the surface. Following application of a pump pulse and no more than 3 probe pulses, a time varying returning light signal is compared with a corresponding returning light signal from a reference. An anomaly in the sample is indicated by a deviation between the two signals. First-degree exponential decay curves may be constructed from the signals, and their decay constants compared.

    Abstract: A scanning module (9) is disposed over a first plate (32). A first motor (39) of moving the scanning module (9) in a second scanning direction and a second motor (49) of moving the scanning module (9) in a first scanning direction are disposed under the first plate (32). In this manner, the first motor (39) and the second motor (49) being a heat source are disposed on a side opposite to a scanning module (9) side using the first plate (32) as a boundary, and thus a transferred amount of heat from the first motor (39) and the second motor (49) to the scanning module (9) decreases. As a result, accuracy of fluorescence detection is prevented from degrading due to thermal distortion of a detection optical system in the scanning module (9).

    Abstract: A scanning illuminating device includes an emission centre from which radiation is emitted in an illuminating sector. A cylindrical ring is centred on the source and is rotatably movable about a first axis. The ring includes a plurality of slits regularly distributed about its axis of rotation and having the same angular amplitude α. A cylinder portion is centred on the source and is rotatably movable about a second axis crossing the first axis at the centre and forming a nonzero angle therewith. The cylinder portion includes a slit having an angular amplitude β. A first device control of the rotation of the ring, defining an elementary angular step αα such that an integer N1 other than 1 meets the condition α=N1.αα. A second device controls the rotation of the ring portion defining an angular step ββ such that an integer N2 other than 1 meets the condition β=N2.ββ.

    Abstract: A multi-spot scanning technique using a spot array having a predetermined gap between spots can advantageously provide scalability to a large number of spots as well as the elimination of cross-talk between channels. The multi-spot scanning technique can select a number of spots for the spot array (1D or 2D), determine a separation between the spots to minimize crosstalk, and perform a scan on a wafer using the spot array and a full field of view (FOV). Performing the scan includes performing a plurality of scan line cycles, wherein each scan line cycle can fill in gaps left by previous scan line cycles. This “delay and fill” scan allows large spacing between spots, thereby eliminating cross-talk at the detector plane. In one embodiment, the scan is begun and ended outside a desired scan area on the wafer to ensure full scan coverage.

    Abstract: An optical scanner for use in conjunction with an infrared spectrometer is disclosed. The optical scanner translates a beam of radiation to a stationary spot on a traveling sheet of material so that ample integration time within the spectrometer is achieved. The beam path impinges on the traveling web and the radiation is reflected off the traveling web back through the optical scanner and recombined at an interferometer. The beam of radiation is kept stationary with respect to both the traveling sheet and the carriage which houses the spectrometer.
