High performance optical spatial filters are produced photographically with an apparatus that directs a coherent beam of light through or off a subject and into a lens. The lens focuses the diffracted and/or reflected light to define a Fourier transform of the subject information. A filter is produced by exposing a photographic plate at the Fourier transform plane, processing the plate, and repositioning it. A hologram is recorded through the processed plate with the apparatus, which directs a reference beam to a holographic recording plane. A second photographic plate is placed at the transform plane and exposed with light directed through the hologram from a direction conjugate to the reference beam. The second plate is then processed. Successive generations of filters may also be produced. A method of using the filters for isolating nonperiodic defects in IC photomasks and wafers is also disclosed.
