| 摘要 |
A defect inspection apparatus includes an illumination optical system, a detection optical system which includes a reflecting objective lens, and wavelength separation optics for conducting wavelength separation, and after the wavelength separation, branching the scattered light into at least a first detection optical path and a second detection optical path. The detection optical system further includes, on the first detection optical path, a first sensor, and on the second detection optical path, a second sensor. A signal processor is provided which, in accordance with at least one of a first signal obtained from the first sensor and a second signal obtained from the second sensor, discriminates defects or defect candidates present on a surface of a sample. |
