发明名称 Enhanced throughput of a metrology tool
摘要 The throughput of a metrology module is enhanced by measuring a first parameter of a processed substrate and only measuring additional parameters if warranted from an analysis of the first parameter. Thus, after a substrate is processed, a first parameter related to the processing is measured and analyzed. If the measured parameter falls within accepted tolerance, the data is reported and then next substrate is processed. If, however, the measured parameter falls outside the range of accepted tolerance, the second parameter or additional parameters are measured and analyzed. The data can then be reported, the processing of subsequent substrate stopped and/or the processing of subsequent substrates adjusted based on the analyzed data.
