Abstract

In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, the heterodyne laser interferometer plays as an ultra-precise measurement system. However, the heterodyne laser interferometer has some unwanted environmental error which is caused from refraction in the air. This is an obstacle to improve the measurement accuracy in nanometer scale. In this paper we propose a compensation algorithm based on Data Fusion method which reduces the environmental error in the heterodyne laser interferometer. Through some experiments, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in measurement accuracy.
