Provided is an ion beam device provided with a gas electric field ionization ion source which can prevent an emitter tip from vibrating in a non-contact manner. The gas electric field ionization ion source is comprised of an emitter tip (21) for generating ions; an emitter base mount (64) for supporting the emitter tip; an ionizing chamber which has an extraction electrode (24) opposed to the emitter tip and which is configured so as to surround the emitter tip (21); and a gas supply tube (25) for supplying gas to the vicinity of the emitter tip. The emitter base mount and a vacuum container magnetically interact with each other.

The charged particle beam microscope is configured of: a gas field ionization ion source (1); a focusing lens (5) which accelerates and focuses ions that have been discharged from the ion source; a movable first aperture (6) which limits the ion beam that has passed through the focusing lens; a first deflector (35) which scans or aligns the ion beam that has passed through the first aperture; a second deflector (7) which deflects the ion beam that has passed through the first aperture; a second aperture (36) which limits the ion beam that has passed through the first aperture; an objective lens (8) which focuses, on a sample, the ion beam that has passed through the first aperture; and a means for measuring the signal, which is substantially proportional to the current of the ion beam that has passed through the second aperture.
摘要:
Provided are a large-current and highly stable gas field ionization ion source, and a high-resolution ion microscope with a large focal depth. The present invention relates to an ion microscope provided with a gas field ionization ion source, in which disposed are a refrigerator for cooling the gas field ionization ion source independent of the main body of the ion microscope, and a refrigerant circulation circuit cooling mechanism for circulating a refrigerant between the gas field ionization ion source and the refrigerator. Consequently it is possible to reduce the mechanical vibration of the refrigerator, which propagates to the gas field ionization ion source, and to achieve both the improvement of the brightness of the ion source and the improvement of ion beam focusing performance.
