    摘要: A processing method and apparatus using a focused energy beam for conducting local energy beam processing in a focused energy beam irradiating area by irradiating a sample with a focused energy beam such as an ion beam or an electron beam in an etching gas atmosphere. As the etching gas, a mixed gas different in composition from any conventional one is employed and the gas is uniformly supplied to an etching area and at least one of the components of such a mixed gas is a spontaneous reactive gas for use in etching the sample spontaneously and isotropically. With this arrangement, it is possible to subject to local etching a material for which the local etching has been impossible to provide since a single etching gas causes a reaction too fierce or causes almost nearly no reaction.

    摘要: An optical mask for a projection optical system and a method of correcting the mask wherein the mask includes a light intercepting pattern formed on a transparent substrate and a phase shifter for changing the phase of an exposure light provided at predetermined openings of the light intercepting pattern. An etching stopper film which transmits the exposure light is provided between said phase shifter and said light intercepting pattern and for correction of the mask a focused ion beam is utilized for removal of defects by the phase shifter.

    摘要: There is disclosed an ion beam processing method of processing a rotating workpiece for a very small-size rotary member, using an ion beam or a focused ion beam. Apparatus for performing this method is also disclosed. In the formation of a product having a non-circular cross-section, when the amount of application of the ion beam is kept constant, the rotational angular velocity of the workpiece is varied in accordance with the rotational angular position of the workpiece. On the other hand, when the rotational angular velocity of the workpiece is kept constant, the amount of application of the ion beam is varied. When it is difficult to align the axis of the workpiece with the axis of rotation of a workpiece holder, the focused ion beam is applied in accordance with the oscillation of the workpiece.

    摘要: A defect of a phase shift mask, which has a phase shifter disposed on a transparent substrate, formed into a predetermined pattern and acting to shift a phase of exposure light transmitted therethrough and an etching stopper disposed between the phase shifter and the transparent substrate, which is resistant to an etching to which the phase shifter is subjected and transparent for exposure light is corrected by selectively etching a defective portion of the phase shifter, having a lacking type defect, with respect to the etching stopper layer along the whole thickness of the phase shifter and by perforating a portion of the etching stopper layer and the transparent substrate positioned under the etched defective portion by a depth which corresponds to a magnitude of an optical path of the phase shifter for the exposure light, the etching being a reactive etching which uses charged particle beam and a reactive gas and, the bottom surface of a portion etched being flattened by utilizing a fact that the phase shifter is selectively etched.

    摘要: In an electron particle machine for observing, inspecting, processing or analyzing a semiconductor wafer as a substrate or a sample, a light source is installed in a preparation chamber. A chucking stage for chucking the semiconductor wafer with a chuck using static electricity is provided with parts for connecting to earth such that they are in contact with the chucked semiconductor wafer. After the chuck using static electricity is released after observation, inspection, process or analysis, a surface of the semiconductor wafer and the parts for connecting to earth are irradiated with light from the light source. This provides conductivity to the surface of the semiconductor wafer, so that charge accumulated on the semiconductor wafer is removed from the surface through the parts for connecting to earth.
