Summary: | Embodiments of the present application provide a measuring apparatus and method of a wafer geometry. The measuring apparatus of the wafer geometry includes: an air-bearing chuck, configured to generate an air cushion to keep a wafer to be measured floating up on a top surface of the air-bearing chuck; and an interferometer, disposed on one side, away from the air-bearing chuck, of the wafer, and configured to obtain an interference fringe image of a front surface of the wafer to measure a geometry of the wafer based on the interference fringe image. An air cushion is generated by utilizing an air-bearing chuck to keep a wafer to be measured floating up on a top surface of the air-bearing chuck, thereby avoiding damage of the original shape of the wafer or contamination of the wafer by a clamping tool, and further reducing errors during measurement. |
