The six common points used when the laser tracker moving from one station to the other are selected based on the stability experiment under the working environment. The laser tracker measures the positions of all the points real time and directs their adjustments. The distance error of the points from the ideal on the workbench is less than ±0.105mm. The close range photogrammetric method is then used to measure the nodes position of the SAR antenna assembled on the workbench. The result indicates the coincidence with that obtained by the laser tracker.","PeriodicalId":191475,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Laser Metrology","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130741869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The VUV SR system is a high throughput, production worthy metrology tool, able to resolve ultra-thin, multi-layer films in a single, broad band (800nm down to 120nm) spectral measurement. The dispersion in the films at the smaller VUV wavelengths allows high resolution of disparate thickness, optical properties and composition within thin film systems, not possible with existing UV optical methods. Optical systems such as spectroscopic ellipsometers (SE) are unable to resolve wide band gap films such as the SiO2-like interface layer between a Hf-based high-k layer and a Si substrate due to intrinsic hardware limitations of the low wavelength range (typically below 150nm). Absorption in the films begins to dominate at incident wavelengths below 190nm, resulting in enhanced reflectance resolution. The resolution of multiple band-gap films being used in sub-45nm semiconductor device manufacturing technology, includes individual films with absorption peaks in the broadband, and less than 190nm (190-150nm, 150-130nm and 130-120nm) wavelength ranges. Applying fitting models and optical properties to the reflectance data, the thicknesses of individual films and their composition can be determined.","PeriodicalId":191475,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Laser Metrology","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123914307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its interpretation in terms of the square root of the product of the cyclotron frequency and the Fermi energy is examined. The interpretation in terms of the Dirac points which are at the centre of the positive and negative energies, is examined and found not to fit well. The spin properties are used to obtain the energy levels correctly. A set of fractional values are tabulated which give the correct Hall effect plateaus. The energy levels arising from the Landau levels are usually of the type of a harmonic oscillator. In the present problem, the harmonic oscillator type levels are just like the equally spaced spin levels in which the number of levels is not limited by 2S+1. The oscillator type series and the proper spin properties are sufficient to get the correct fractions. The flux quantization is needed to get the plateaus in the Hall effect. We are thus able to obtain the correct fractions without the use of relativistic effects. The theory presented is thus non-relativistic. The normal infrared absorption arises from the equally spaced energy levels so that there is only one line. The additional lines occur due to spin properties.","PeriodicalId":191475,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Laser Metrology","volume":"7155 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131326631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed set-up can be used to construct a phase shifting interferometer as well by suitably incorporationg a quarter-wave plate and two polarizers for polarization phase shifting. It is also shown that the CBS interferometer, in a slightly different testing configuration, is birefringence sensitive in the sense that the displacement of the fringes is solely dependent on the birefringence of the sample and not on its surface quality.","PeriodicalId":191475,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Laser Metrology","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131616585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At each natural frequency, the plate has a unique mode shape of vibration which can be easily differentiated from mode shapes at other natural frequencies. In this paper, a technique for the evaluation of the elastic modulus is proposed which is based on the vibration analysis of the plate using digital speckle pattern interferometry (DSPI) and Rayleight's method. Large numbers of experiments were conducted on square aluminium plate for the boundary condition; one edge is fixed and other edges free. The experimental result reveals that a single observation of frequency at first torsional mode is sufficient to evaluate the elastic modulus for all practical purposes. The evaluated experimental error was found to be less than 1%. Ease in sample preparation, simplicity in evaluation, non destructive nature of the DSPI and speed of DSPI has good prospect to evaluate elastic modulus of a material.","PeriodicalId":191475,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Laser Metrology","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115076985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
