Abstract

See full text

Apparatuses and methods are provided for processing a surface of a substrate. The substrate may have a surface pattern that exhibits directionally and/or orientationally different reflectivities relative to radiation of a selected wavelength and polarization. The apparatus may include a radiation source that emits a photonic beam of the selected wavelength and polarization directed toward the surface at orientation angle and incidence angle selected to substantially minimize substrate surface reflectivity variations and/or minimize the maximum substrate surface reflectivity during scanning. Also provided are methods and apparatuses for selecting an optimal orientation and/or incidence angle for processing a surface of a substrate.
