    Abstract: In order to measure a surface profile of a sample, an imprint of the surface profile to be examined is produced in a transfer material. The sample contains processed semiconductor material and is in particular a patterned semiconductor wafer or part of a patterned semiconductor wafer. The transfer material is deformable and curable under suitable ambient conditions. The transfer material may be a thermoplastic material or a material which is deformable as desired after application on a substrate and cures in one case by means of irradiation with photons having a suitable wavelength or alternatively heating. The transfer material may be configured in such a way that the imprint produced is the same size as or alternatively of smaller size than the surface profile. The imprint produced is subsequently measured by known methods.

    Abstract: The method involves applying electromagnetic scanning radiation to the layer with the recess, with a wavelength larger than the lateral dimension of the recess. The response radiation is received and the interaction of the radiation with the layer is used to determine characteristic data for derivation of the dimensions or volume of the recess and the properties of material in the recess. An independent claim is included for a method of manufacturing a component with a recess.
