We present a multi-modal tabletop EUV imaging reflectometer for high-fidelity metrology of nanostructures. The reflectometer is capable of measurements in three distinct modes: intensity reflectometry, scatterometry, and imaging reflectometry, where each mode addresses different nanostructure characterization challenges. We demonstrate the system’s unique ability to quantitatively and non-destructively measure the geometry and composition of nanostructures with tens of square microns field of view and sub-nanometer precision. Parameters such as surface and line edge roughness, density, nanostructure linewidth, and profile, as well as depth-resolved composition, can be quantitatively determined. The results highlight the applicability of EUV metrology to address a wide range of semiconductor and materials science challenges.}, year = {2023}, journal = {Review of Scientific Instruments}, volume = {94}, publisher = {AIP Publishing}, issn = {0034-6748, 1089-7623}, doi = {10.1063/5.0175860}, }
