Abstract:
An apparatus for detecting a degree of particulate contamination on a flat panel is disclosed, including: an illuminator for producing a radiation beam which results in scattered radiation from its scattering by contaminants on a surface of the flat panel under test and reflected radiation from its reflection by the surface of the flat panel under test; a detector for collecting the scattered radiation, the detector having a radiation collection surface perpendicular to a normal of the surface of the flat panel under test; and a beam trimmer for separating the reflected radiation from the scattered radiation, the beam trimmer including a first optical member, disposed in correspondence with the scattered radiation and configured for directing the scattered radiation to be collected by the detector, and a second optical member disposed in correspondence with the reflected radiation and configured for directing the reflected radiation not to be collected by the detector.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus for detecting a degree of particulate contamination on a flat panel, comprising:\n an illuminator configured for producing a radiation beam, wherein the radiation beam is scattered by contaminants on a surface of a flat panel under test and results in a scattered radiation, and the radiation beam is reflected by the surface of the flat panel under test and results in a reflected radiation; a detector configured for collecting the scattered radiation, the detector having a radiation collection surface perpendicular to a normal of the surface of the flat panel under test; and a beam trimmer configured for separating the reflected radiation from the scattered radiation, the beam trimmer comprising a first optical member and a second optical member, the first optical member disposed in correspondence with the scattered radiation and configured for directing the scattered radiation to be collected by the detector, the second optical member disposed in correspondence with the reflected radiation and configured for directing the reflected radiation away from the detector.
