摘要: A method of determining a number of charged particles incident on a detector within a period may include generating a first signal that is based on a charged particle impacting a sensing element of the detector, performing processing using the first signal based on a predetermined characteristic of a charged particle arrival event on the detector, and outputting a count signal based on the processing.

摘要: A detector for detecting radiation is disclosed. In one arrangement, the detector has a sensing element that comprises a semiconducting sensor substrate (402) and is configured such that impingement of target radiation generates charge carriers in the sensor substrate. Readout circuitry provides an output responsive to charge carriers generated in the sensor substrate. The sensor substrate comprises a low bandgap layer (408) and a high bandgap portion (409).

摘要: There is provided a detector substrate for use in a charged particle multi-beam assessment tool to detect charged particles from a sample. The detector substrate defines an array of apertures for the beam paths of respective charged particle beams of a multi-beam. The detector substrate comprises: a sensor unit array. A sensor unit of the sensor unit array is adjacent a corresponding aperture of the aperture array. The sensor unit is configured to capture charged particles from the sample. The detector array comprises an amplification circuit associated with each sensor unit in the sensor unit array and proximate to the corresponding aperture in the aperture array. The amplification circuit comprising a Trans Impedance Amplifier and/or an analogue to digital converter.
