Interference

In the law of Patents, the presence of two pending applications, or an existing patent and a pending application that encompass an identical invention or discovery.

When interference exists, the Patent and Trademark Office conducts an investigation to ascertain the priority of invention between the conflicting applications, or the application and the patent. A patent is customarily granted to the earlier invention.

The differences in the height of specimen structures are then determined by measuring the phase shift in the interference pattern. This technique effectively allows the measurements of step heights on the order of 20 nm to 5 microns with a high degree of accuracy and repeatability, according to the company.
