Abstract: An autofocus control method, an autofocus controller, and an image processor capable of eliminating influence originated from an optical system, realizing a stable autofocus function. In calculating a focus evaluation value of each sample image obtained at plural focus positions, dark and light patterns of brightness originated from the optical system is reduced by applying smoothing processing to the obtained sample image, and the focus evaluation value is calculated based on the smoothed sample image. Further, the focus evaluation value is standardized by average display brightness of the smoothed sample image to obtain an optimal evaluation value.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately inspect in a short time a thin-film pattern serving as the subject of inspection. SOLUTION: When a number of thin-film patterns formed in the same shape on a wafer are inspected across a multitude of wafers, an image close to a preset master image which serves as a reference is selected as a reference image for each wafer and for each wafer the selected reference image is compared with an image of the thin-film pattern to be inspected, whereby the thin- film patterns serving as the subject of inspection are inspected. To select the reference image for each wafer, images of a certain number of thin-film patterns among a multitude of thin-film patterns formed on the wafer are sequentially obtained and the closeness between the image of the thin-film pattern obtained and the master image is evaluated by a numerical rank. An image of the thin- film pattern which is evaluated to be above a certain level of numerical rank and the highest numerical rank is selected as a reference image of the wafer.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To shorten the total time for taking up a tape by measuring the length of a main tape at the time of take-up operation at the first time and controlling take-up speed at and after the second time. CONSTITUTION:A magnetic tape 3A of the main tape joined with a leader tape of a winder material 6 is cut in the middle of the leader tape by a cutting means 23 and is taken up by a hub 7A, etc. At this first time take-up time, the length of the tape 3A to be taken up by a length measuring roller 21 is measured. A take-up speed curve is calculated for the second time and downward by a control part 22 based on the above measuring result, and is decided. Then, the tape speed at and after the second time is controlled based on the take-up speed curve, and upon detection of the tip of the leader tape, the tape speed is reduced, and the tape 3A is stopped and cut in the middle of the leader tape. The total time for taking up the tape plural times is shortened by repeating optimum control on the tape speed each time.
