Microstructure Inspecting Apparatus and Microstructure Inspecting Method

摘要

Voltage is applied to a chip TP by a voltage drive unit 30 through a probe needle P to move a movable part of a microstructure. A sound produced in response to motion of the movable part of the microstructure is detected by a microphone 3. Then, the sound detected by the microphone 3 is measured by a measurement unit 25. The control unit 20 evaluates the characteristics of the tested chip TP by comparing with a sound detected from an ideal chip TP.
