    Abstract: An imaging system utilizing atomic atoms is provided. The system may include a neutral atom source configured to generate a beam of neutral atoms. The system may also include an ionizer configured to collect neutral atoms scattered from the surface of a sample. The ionizer may also be configured to ionize the collected neutral atoms. The system may also include a selector configured to receive ions from the ionizer and selectively filter received ions. The system may also include one or more optical elements configured to direct selected ions to a detector. The detector may be configured to generate one or more images of the surface of the sample based on the received ions.

    Abstract: A system for cleaning or suppressing contamination or oxidation in a EUV optical setting includes an illumination source, a detector, a first set of optical elements to direct light from the illumination source to a specimen and a second set of optical elements to receive illumination from the specimen and direct the illumination to the detector. The system also includes one or more vacuum chambers for containing the first and second set of optical elements and containing a selected purge gas ionizable by the light emitted by the illumination source. The first or second set of optical elements includes an electrically biased optical element having at least one electrically biased surface. The electrically biased optical element has a bias configuration suitable to attract one or more ionic species of the selected purge gas to the electrically biased surface in order to clean contaminants from the electrically biased surface.
