    Abstract: A system for depositing material over a sample in a localized region of the sample, the system including: a vacuum chamber; a thermal mass disposed outside the vacuum chamber; a sample support configured to hold a sample within the vacuum chamber during a sample evaluation process; a charged particle beam column configured to direct a charged particle beam into the vacuum chamber toward the sample such that the charged particle beam collides with the sample in a deposition region; a gas injection system configured to deliver a process gas to the deposition region of the sample; and a thermal isolation shield spaced apart from and disposed between the gas injection system and the sample, wherein the thermal isolation shield has a high thermal conductivity and a low emissivity and is thermally coupled to the thermal mass to transfer heat radiated from the gas injection system to the thermal mass.
