ABSTRACT:
A spectroscopic analyzing method and apparatus for a wafer surface and gas phase elements in a reaction chamber. A beam of radiant energy is introduced from a light incident apparatus to the reaction chamber through a window on a wall of the reaction chamber at a predetermined, but variable, angle of incidence. The angle of incidence is set by adjusting optical elements in the light incident apparatus and an angle of the window. At one angle of incidence, the beam of radiant energy is caused to interact with gas-phase elements in the reaction chamber for spectroscopic analysis. At another angle of incidence, the beam of radiant energy is caused to interact with the wafer surface for spectroscopic analysis.
