    摘要: The present invention determines property of a target (30) on a substrate (W), such as a grating on a wafer. An inspection apparatus has an illumination source (702, 710) with two or more illumination beams (716, 716′, 716″, 716′″) in the pupil plane of a high numerical aperture objective lens (L3). The substrate and target are illuminated via the objective lens from different angles of incidence with respect to the plane of the substrate. In the case of four illumination beams, a quad wedge optical device (QW) is used to separately redirect diffraction orders of radiation scattered from the substrate and separates diffraction orders from the two or more illumination beams. For example four 0th diffraction orders are separated for four incident directions. After capture in multimode fibers (MF), spectrometers (S1-S4) are used to measure the intensity of the separately redirected 0th diffraction orders as a function of wavelength. This may then be used in determining a property of a target.

    摘要: Provided is a component measuring apparatus configured to determine a functional form that describes wavelength characteristics of a variation attributable to scattering (S (λ)). The apparatus then determines unknown one or more coefficients (p, q) based on a first relational expression that involves a variation attributable to absorption (H (λ1)) and a group of second relational expressions that do not involve variations attributable to absorption (H (λ2a), H (λ2b), H (λ2c)). The apparatus then corrects an absorbance measured at an arbitrary wavelength (λ) using a function where the one or more coefficients (p, q) are applied to the functional form so as to reduce or eliminate at least the effects of scattering of light.

    摘要: A gemstone viewer for personal communications devices for viewing a gemstone surface on which has been formed an image or inscription such as an identification number. In one embodiment, the viewer is mounted to employ the camera and LED light source of the personal communications device. The viewer directs the light from the light source as a light beam along a path incident to the surface of the gemstone containing the inscription. The gemstone spectrally reflects the light beam along a path back toward and through a magnifying lens to the camera lens of the personal communications device thereby enhancing the magnifying properties of the camera lens to produce a viewable light image that reveals the inscription on the viewing screen of the personal communications device. In another embodiment, the viewer is aligned to the front facing camera of the personal communications device, and includes its own light source.

    摘要: The invention relates to a device for detecting rain on a pane (2). The device comprises a camera (1) and an electrically drivable film (3) that actively emits light (h). The emitted light (h) emerges as a light sheet (s) from the film (3). The camera (1) and the film (3) are designed and arranged in such a way that the camera (1) can detect a signal from the light (h) or an imaging (i1, i2) of the light sheet (s), which is emitted by the film (3), impinges on the pane (2) and is reflected by the pane. In particular, in this case, the signal detected by the camera (1) or the light sheet(s) (i1, i2) correlate(s) with light which is emitted by the film (3) and reflected or scattered at the inner face (2.1) or outer face (2.2) of the pane and/or at a raindrop.
