Abstract

A wafer measurement apparatus for measuring a bonding strength of a bonded wafer includes a wafer holder to hold a bonded wafer into which a blade is inserted and where a crack occurs, a lighting assembly including a light source, a light source controller to select the light source of the lighting assembly for detection of the crack reflected in the bonded wafer, on photographing conditions, a photographing assembly to photograph the bonded wafer by using the photographing conditions corresponding to a wavelength of the light source, on sensitivity of the wavelength of the light source, and a calculator to select one photographing condition, transmit the selected photographing condition, and calculate bonding strength, on a crack distance from a blade edge, extracted from an image of the bonded wafer, to a crack edge.
