摘要:A semiconductor wafer edge portion is evaluated with high accuracy by acontact-free, non-destructive and high accuracy optical-acoustical process instead ofconventional destructive selective etching processes. Residual damages in the form ofcrystal damages caused to such wafer edges are determined by an optical acousticalprocess, in which a measurement probe (10A) is made to face each of three exciting laserbeam irradiation points (X1, X2, X3) on upper and lower inclined surfaces and an accurateend surface of the wafer edge (31), and the thermal response induced by an exciting laserbeam is determined by laser interference.
