Zusammenfassung:An inline deposition control apparatus (100) for a vacuum deposition apparatus having one or more deposition sources for depositing one or more deposition layers on a substrate (11), includes one or more light sources (142) adapted to illuminate the substrate having the one or more deposition layers; a detection arrangement (160) adapted for spectrally resolved detection of a measurement signal, wherein the measurement signal is selected from at least one of: light reflected at the substrate having the one or more deposition layers, and light transmitted through the substrate having the one or more deposition layers; an evaluation unit (170) to determine the respective thicknesses of the one or more layers based on the measurement signal; and a controller (180) connected to the evaluation unit and connectable to the deposition apparatus for feed-back control of the deposition of the one or more deposition layers based on the determined thicknesses. Furthermore, a method of inline deposition control is provided.
