Abstract

See full text

In a measurement method for measuring the epitaxial film thickness of a multilayer epitaxial wafer, a reflectivity spectrum of a multilayer epitaxial wafer having at least two epitaxial layers of different electric characteristics is measured by using infrared radiation in a far infrared region of at least 500 cm.sup.-1 or less, and frequency-analysis is performed on the reflection spectrum thus obtained by a maximum entropy method, and the film thickness of each epitaxial layer is calculated on the basis of the analysis spectrum thus obtained.
