Abstract:
The invention relates to an apparatus (1200,1300) for transmission of energy of an ion to at least one gas particle and/or for transportation of an ion. The invention also relates to a particle beam device having an apparatus such as this. In particular, a container is provided, in which a gas is arranged which has gas particles, wherein the container has a transport axis. Furthermore, at least one first multipole unit and at least one second multipole unit are provided, which are arranged along the transport axis. The first multipole unit and the second multipole unit are formed by printed circuit boards. Furthermore, an electronic circuit is provided, which provides each multipole unit with a potential, such that a potential gradient is generated, in particular along the transport axis.
Abstract:
There is disclosed an electron microscope that achieves low-magnification imaging while the objective lens is kept at high excitation in the same way as during high-magnification imaging. An objective minilens (12) located immediately behind the objective lens (11) demagnifies a specimen image magnified by the objective lens. Consequently, a sharply focused electron beam enters the first intermediate lens (13). This greatly reduces the effects of off-axis aberrations in the intermediate lenses. The first, second, and third intermediate lenses (13,14,15) create a crossover image and a microscope image in the entrance window plane (24) and entrance image plane (25), respectively, of an energy filter (16). The energy filter focuses the microscope image and crossover image onto the exit image plane (26) and exit window plane (27), respectively. The output image from the filter is projected onto the final image plane (20) by first and second projector lenses (18,19).

Abstract:
A scanning electron microscope with an energy filter which can positively utilize secondary electrons and/or reflected electrons which collide against a mesh electrode and are lost. The scanning electron microscope which has a porous electrode for producing an electric field for energy-filtering electrons produced by applying a primary electron beam to a sample and a 1st electron detector which detects electrons passing through the porous electrode is characterized by further having a porous structure provided near the sample, a deflector which deflects electrons from the axis of the primary electron beam, and a 2nd electron detector which detects the electrons deflected by the deflector.
Abstract:
An ion implantation method for controlling the amount of current and the current density distribution of an ion beam provided by an ion implantation apparatus comprising an ion source (1) having an arc chamber (2) generating said ion beam and a drawing electrode (3) drawing ions from said arc chamber; a mass separator (4) transporting only such ions of the drawn ions which are necessary for implantation into a material; and an ion implantation chamber (5) in which said material is arranged. Said amount of current and the current density distribution are controlled by controlling the beam incident angle (α) and the beam exit angle (β) of the mass separator by evaluating a number of different equations.
