摘要 |
One embodiment relates to a method of reviewing defects using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). A defect location having a defect for review is selected, and the SEM is configured to be in a first imaging configuration. The selected defect location is imaged using the SEM to generate a first SEM image of the selected defect location. A determination is made as to whether the defect is visible or non-visible in the first SEM image. If the defect is non-visible in the first SEM image, then the SEM is configured to be into a second imaging configuration, the selected defect location is imaged using the SEM to generate a second SEM image of the selected defect location, and a further determination is made as to whether the defect is visible or non-visible in the second SEM image. Other embodiments, aspects and features are also disclosed. |
