Abstract
The invention concerns an apparatus for inspection of a wafer, encompassing at least one incident-light illumination device that radiates an illuminating light beam which is incident obliquely onto a surface of a wafer to be inspected, and an image capture device for capturing an image of the surface in a dark-field arrangement. The wafer inspection apparatus is characterized in that at least one deflection device is provided in order to deflect an associated illuminating light beam onto the surface of the wafer.
