Section: claims

1. A method of monitoring delamination of a film from a target comprising:projecting light at said target while the target is being processed, wherein processing of the target comprises ion implanting;detecting said light reflected from said target and measuring the reflectivity of said target;comparing said measured reflectivity to a first expected reflectivity;determining presence of bubbles forming in said target based on said comparison to said first expected reflectivity;continuing to implant ions after said determining of said presence of bubbles;comparing said measured reflectivity to a second expected reflectivity; anddetermining presence of delamination of said film from said target during the processing of the target based on said comparison to said second expected reflectivity. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein said projected light comprises a plurality of wavelengths. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein said measuring and comparing steps are performed for a plurality of wavelengths. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein said comparing steps comprise detecting an increase or decrease in amplitude at one or more frequencies. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising repeating said projecting, measuring, comparing and determining a plurality of times. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein said processing is terminated in response to said determining presence of delamination of said film step. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein said processing is ion implanting into said target during said measuring, comparing and determining steps. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein said ion implanting step is terminated in response to said determining presence of delamination of said film step. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein said target comprises a semiconductor wafer. 10. The method of claim 1, further comprising scanning light in at least one direction. 11. A method for processing a substrate, the method comprising:performing a first process on the substrate, wherein the first process comprises implanting ions into said substrate so as to form at least one gas bubble between two portions of the substrate;directing radiation toward the substrate during the performing the first process;receiving radiation directed toward the substrate during the performing the first process and reflected from the substrate;detecting, based on said reflected radiation, that one of said portions has delaminated from a second of said portions; andterminating the first process based upon said detection. 12. The method of claim 11, further comprising performing a second process on the substrate, wherein the second process is performed after detecting the endpoint of the first process. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the second process comprises separating the two portions of the substrate. 14. The method of claim 11, further comprising:determining, before said detection, based on said reflected radiation, that said at least one gas bubble has formed; andcontinuing to implant ions into said substrate after said determination and before said detection.
