Method and device for characterizing an electron beam
First Claim
1. A device for detecting X-rays emanating from a substrate surface, said device comprising:
- at least one first X-ray detector;
a patterned aperture resolver; and
a patterned aperture modulator,wherein;
said patterned aperture resolver includes at least one opening facing towards said X-ray detector, the patterned aperture resolver being positioned in front of said X-ray detector, the at least one opening defining a first pattern;
said patterned aperture modulator is positioned between said patterned aperture resolver and said substrate at a predetermined distance from said patterned aperture resolver and said substrate, where said patterned aperture modulator has a plurality of openings in at least a first direction, the plurality of openings defining a second pattern, the second pattern being different, other than in a relative scale, from the first pattern, the plurality of openings comprising a first opening comprising a first micro-pattern and a second opening comprising a second micro-pattern different than the first micro-pattern, wherein the first micro-pattern is arranged in a first non-periodic pattern and the second micro-pattern is arranged in a second non-periodic pattern that is different than the first non-periodic pattern; and
said x-rays emanating from said substrate surface are intensity modulated with said patterned aperture modulator and patterned aperture resolver before being detected by said X-ray detector.

Abstract
A device for detecting X-rays radiated out of a substrate surface, said device comprising at least one X-ray detector, a resolver grating and a modulator grating, said resolver grating with at least one opening facing towards said X-ray detector is arranged in front of said X-ray detector. Said modulator grating is provided between said resolver grating and said substrate at a predetermined distance from said resolver grating and said substrate, where said modulator grating having a plurality of openings in at least a first direction, wherein said x-rays from said surface is spatially modulated with said modulator grating and resolver grating.
