The results from the references cited above motivated the application of the AFM method with high lateral resolution and less precise but faster confocal microscopy techniques.
The contributors present a new method to increase the lateral resolution available in laser tools, through silicon circuit edit techniques, dynamic laser delay variation mapping implementations, and a robust system level failure analysis framework.
Combined with polarimetric techniques, this novel microscopy can be used to directly measure the birefringence and dichroism of thin polymer film samples with lateral resolution of about 50 nm.
