    Abstract: In an optical inspection tool, an illumination aperture is opened at each of a plurality of aperture positions of an illumination pupil area one at a time across the illumination pupil area. For each aperture opening position, an incident beam is directed towards the illumination pupil area so as to selectively pass a corresponding ray bundle of the illumination beam at a corresponding set of one or more incident angles towards the sample and an output beam, which is emitted from the sample in response to the corresponding ray bundle of the incident beam impinging on the sample at the corresponding set of one or more incident angles, is detected. A defect detection characteristic for each aperture position is determined based on the output beam detected for each aperture position. An optimum aperture configuration is determined based on the determined defect detection characteristic for each aperture position.

    Abstract: A ring light illuminator with annularly arranged light sources is disclosed. To each light source there corresponds a light collector, a homogenizing means for light from the light source, and an anamorphic system for imaging an output of the homogenizing means into an area to be illuminated. The anamorphic system compensates deformations of a cross-sectional area of a light beam in a surface to be illuminated due to an oblique angle of incidence of the light beam onto the surface. The homogenizing means in embodiments is a rod, into which light from the light collector is directed. The end of the rod opposite the light collector is imaged by the anamorphic system into the area to be illuminated on the surface. Also disclosed is a method for illumination.

    Abstract: A sample holder for placing a sample substance for transmission measurements with optical radiation into a spectrometer, in particular, a FTIR spectrometer which is at least partially made from a material transparent to the optical radiation in a intermeshing wavelength region and which exhibits an index of refraction in excess of 1 is configured as a converging lens with a concave surface (11) and a convex surface (12). To take an absorption spectrum of a powder and/or fluid dissolved or suspended sample substance, the sample substance is brought onto the concave surface (11) of the sample holder before the measurement where it, in consequence of the curvature and in contrast to a flat surface, is concentrated in a substantially smaller surface region. The configuration of the sample holder as a converging lens increases the yield of the radiation penetrating through the sample substance onto the detector of the spectrometer configuration.

    Abstract: A method for mapping distribution of chemical compounds in soil is described herein including inserting a probe into the soil, obtaining spectroscopic data regarding the soil, sampling a core of soil adjacent to the probe locations, dividing the core into multiple depth increments, analyzing the core samples, matching each core sample with a corresponding depth increment of the probe insertions, obtaining data from the probe insertions, dividing the probe insertion data into training, validation, and test categories, resampling spectral variables from the probe insertion data to a wavelength interval longer than a native wavelength interval of an associated spectrometer, normalizing the probe insertion data on a spectrum by spectrum basis, utilizing a machine learning normalization algorithm, standardizing the spectral variables to a common scale by removing a mean and scaling to unit variance, and choosing a model utilizing the test set.
