MULTIPLE LIBRARIES FOR SPECTROGRAPHIC MONITORING OF ZONES OF A SUBSTRATE DURING PROCESSING

A computer-implemented method includes receiving a first sequence of current spectra of reflected light from a first zone of a substrate. A second sequence of current spectra of reflected light from a second zone of the substrate is received. Each current spectrum from the first sequence of current spectra is compared to a plurality of reference spectra from a first reference spectra library to generate a first sequence of best-match reference spectra. Each current spectrum from the second sequence of current spectra is compared to a plurality of reference spectra from a second reference spectra library to generate a second sequence of best-match reference spectra. The second reference spectra library is distinct from the first reference spectra library.
