    Abstract: The embodiments disclosed herein are directed to systems, methods, and devices for processing a material using a microwave plasma apparatus with an interior liner. In some embodiments, the liner comprises a reduction resistant material layer in direct contact with a hydrogen-containing plasma of a plasma processing apparatus. In some embodiments, the liner may comprise a sleeve disposed between a plasma and one or more concentric tubes of a plasma processing apparatus. In some embodiments, the liner may comprise a coating of material applied to the one or more concentric tubes. In some embodiments, the liner may comprise a flexible ceramic material, such as a ceramic ribbon that is coiled or wrapped in a helix shape spiraling around the interior of the one or more concentric tubes.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an apparatus employing an electron beam to expose the structure of a micro device and produce an image of the structure. The apparatus includes an electron gun producing the electron beam; an electron beam column having one or more segments that shape, focus and/or deflect the electron beams; and one or more center tubes along the electron beam column that provides a high vacuum environment for and guiding the electron beam to a target object coated with an electron sensitive resist. At least one of the center tubes is a carbon tube made of solid carbon material.

    Abstract: A charged particle beam apparatus in which an electrostatic lens is used as a main focusing element to obtain a subminiature high-sensitivity high-resolution SEM, a drift tube for an electron beam is located inside a column between an electron source and a sample, and a detector for secondary electrons is located inside the drift tube. This solves the problem associated with the provision of a secondary electron detector, which heretofore has been a bottleneck in making a subminiature high-resolution SEM column.

    Abstract: An improved scanning electron microscope is disclosed which includes a compact, replaceable electron beam emitter assembly and concentric liner tubes. The concentric liner tubes extend through a central portion of electromagnetic lenses for forming an evacuated path for the electron beam. An outer sealing jacket is provided for forming a vacuum seal with the column assembly sufficient to maintain a vacuum within the outer sealing jacket. A conductive inner liner tube positioned within the outer sealing jacket is adapted to have the electron beam pass therethrough. The inner liner tube provides supports for spray baffles and/or beam shaping orifices. The improved electron beam emitter assembly within the gun assembly includes a filament clamped between a front plate and a back plate by clamping screws. The clamping screws additionally hold an adjustable grid against the front plate.

    Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus includes a processing container configured to air-tightly accommodate substrates, a plurality of mounting stands configured to mount the substrates, a process gas supply part configured to supply a process gas to the mounting stands, an exhaust mechanism configured to evacuate an interior of the processing container, a partition wall configured to independently surround the mounting stands with a gap left between the partition wall and each of the mounting stands, and cylindrical inner walls configured to independently surround the mounting stands with a gap left between each of the inner walls and each of the mounting stands. Slits are formed in the inner walls. The process gas in the processing spaces is exhausted via the slits. The inner walls include partition plates for bypassing the process gas so that the process gas does not directly flow into the slits.

    Abstract: A beam line system includes a hollow tube and a plurality of protruding structures. The hollow tube has an inlet and an outlet. An ion beam emitted by the ion implanter is introduced into the hollow tube through the inlet and exited from the hollow tube through the outlet. The protruding structures are formed on an inner wall of the hollow tube. Each of the protruding structures has a reflective surface for reflecting a portion of the ion beam.
