Provided are a method of inspecting a surface and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. The methods include preparing a substrate, selecting a spatial resolution of a first optical device by setting a magnification of an imaging optical system, emitting multi-wavelength light toward a first measurement area of the substrate and obtaining first wavelength-specific images, generating first spectrum data based on the first wavelength-specific images, generating first spectrum data of respective pixels based on the first wavelength-specific images, and extracting a spectrum of at least one first inspection area having a range of the first measurement area or less from the first spectrum data, and analyzing the spectrum. The first optical device includes a light source, an objective lens, a detector, and an imaging optical system. The obtaining first wavelength-specific images includes using the imaging optical system and the detector.

Method of inspecting surface and method of manufacturing semiconductor device

In a defect inspection method, first and second inspection conditions having a first sensitivity of detection signal and having a second sensitivity of a detection signal for a defect of interest (DOI), respectively, are determined. The first and second sensitivities are different. First and second images of the same detection region on a substrate surface under the first and second inspection conditions respectively, are obtained. The first and second images are matched to detect a defect in the detection region.

Defect inspection method and defect inspection apparatus

An optical measuring method includes generating a Bessel beam, filtering the Bessel beam to generate a focused Bessel beam, vertically irradiating the focused Bessel beam onto a substrate in which an opening is formed, and detecting light reflected from the substrate to obtain an image of a bottom surface of the opening.
