Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing a compound film layer, comprising: forming the compound film layer composed of at least a first material and a second material on a first surface of a substrate as the substrate is transferred in a first direction relative to a deposition source block, wherein the deposition source block comprises a first deposition source adapted to deliver a flux of the first material to the first surface and a second deposition source adapted to deliver a flux of the second material to the first surface; measuring a property of the compound film layer using a measurement device that is positioned over a second surface of the substrate, wherein the measurement device comprises an x-ray detector and an electron source or an x-ray source, and wherein the second surface is opposed to the first surface of the substrate, the substrate is disposed between the measurement device and the deposition source block and the measured property of the compound film layer is selected from a group consisting of thickness and composition; and adjusting the flux of the first material delivered to the first surface as the substrate is transferred in the first direction, based on a comparison of the measured property and a predefined value.
