Method and apparatus for X-ray scatterometry

A method for X-ray scatterometry includes receiving a first distribution of an X-ray beam scattered from a sample. The first distribution exhibits asymmetry with respect to a reference axis. A correction is applied to the first distribution, so as to produce a second distribution in which a level of...

Zusammenfassung:	A method for X-ray scatterometry includes receiving a first distribution of an X-ray beam scattered from a sample. The first distribution exhibits asymmetry with respect to a reference axis. A correction is applied to the first distribution, so as to produce a second distribution in which a level of the asymmetry is reduced relative to the first distribution. One or more parameters of the sample are estimated based on the second distribution.
