A novel optical inspection technique for multi-layer wafers and the like in which conductor patterns of a top layer only are to be inspected, such layer being upon an intermediate transparent or translucent insulation layer in tu rn upon a base layer(s) thereunder, wherein the intermediate layer only is fluoresced, displaying the top layer conductors as dark in the field of fluorescent light, and causing reflections from layers below the intermediat e layer effectively to disappear to obviate confusion with the top layer conductors to be inspected. |
