摘要:
A method of improving the performance of a charged beam apparatus. The method including: providing a chamber having an interior surface; providing a pump port for evacuating the chamber; providing a substrate holder within the chamber; forming a charged particle beam within the chamber, the charged beam generated by a source and the charged particle beam striking the substrate; and placing one or more liners in contact with one or more different regions of the interior surface of the chamber, the liners preventing material generated by interaction of the charged beam and the substrate from coating the one or more different regions of the interior surface of the chamber.

A method of monitoring copper contamination. The method includes method, comprising: (a) ion-implanting an N-type dopant into a region of single-crystal silicon substrate, the region abutting a top surface of the substrate; (c) activating the N-type dopant by annealing the substrate at a temperature of 500° C. or higher in an inert atmosphere; (c) submerging, for a present duration of time, the substrate into an aqueous solution, the aqueous solution to be monitored for copper contamination; and (d) determining an amount of copper adsorbed from the aqueous solution by the region of the substrate.
