    摘要: An irradiation electron beam emitted from an electron gun is deflected by an energy filter, and passes through a first projective lens and an objective lens, and then irradiated onto a sample to produce secondary electrons. The secondary electron beam accelerated by a negative voltage applied to the sample passes through the objective lens and the first projective lens, and deflected by the energy filter to be energy dispersed. Only the secondary electrons having a specified energy pass through energy selecting aperture, and further pass through a second projective lens to form a projected image of the secondary electrons on an imager. Such an electron-optical system may be used for dimension evaluation or inspection of semiconductor substrates.

    摘要: Image evaluation method capable of objectively evaluating the image resolution of a microscope image. An image resolution method is characterized in that resolution in partial regions of an image is obtained over an entire area of the image or a portion of the image, averaging is performed over the entire area of the image or the portion of the image, and the averaged value is established as the resolution evaluation value of the entire area of the image or the portion of the image. This method eliminates the subjective impressions of the evaluator from evaluation of microscope image resolution, so image resolution evaluation values of high accuracy and good repeatability can be obtained.

    摘要: An EHD ion source includes an extractor and a control electrode with extractor being disposed below a tip of an electrode, and functioning to apply an electric field to a substance to-be-ionized wetting a pointed end of the tip, so as to derive ions from the pointed tip end. The control electrode is disposed in the vicinity of the pointed end of the tip, and it functions to apply an electric field to the substance to-be-ionized in its molten state so as to supply the pointed tip end with the substance to-be-ionized in a suitable amount. As a result, a great ion current which is substantially proportional to an extracting voltage can be derived from the pointed tip end.
