    摘要: Methods and apparatus for imaging a structure and a related processor-readable medium are disclosed. A surface of a substrate (or a portion thereof) is exposed to a gas composition. The gas composition includes one or more components that etch the substrate upon activation by interaction with a beam of electrons. A beam of electrons is directed to one or more portions of the surface of the substrate that are exposed to the gas composition to etch the one or more portions. A plurality of images is obtained of the one or more portions at different instances of time as the one or more portions are etched. A three-dimensional model of one or more structures embedded within the one or more portions of the substrate is generated from the plurality of images.

    摘要: One embodiment relates to an electron beam apparatus. The apparatus includes a source for generating an incident electron beam, an electron lens for focusing the incident electron beam so that the beam impinges upon a substrate surface and interacts with surface material so as to cause secondary emission of scattered electrons, and a detector configured to detect the scattered electrons. The apparatus further includes an advantageous device configured to trap the scattered electrons which are emitted at sharp angles relative to the sample surface plane of the substrate surface. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

    摘要: A feature in a thin-film structure such as an AMLCD array has an edge with a tapered sidewall profile, reducing step coverage problems. The feature can be produced by producing a layer in which local etch rates vary in the thickness direction of the layer. The layer can then be etched to produce the feature with the tapered sidewall profile. The layer can be produced by physical vapor deposition. The layer can, for example, includes sublayers with different etch rates, either due to different atomic proportions of constituents or due to different etchants. Or local etch rates can vary continuously as a result of changing deposition conditions. Differences in etch rates or differences in etchant mixtures can be used to obtain a desired angle of elevation.

    摘要: A conductive line in a thin-film structure such as an AMLCD array includes molybdenum and chromium so that it can be processed in a manner similar to chromium but has a greater conductivity than chromium due to the molybdenum. The conductive line can be produced by physical vapor deposition of a layer of a molybdenum-chromium (MoCr) alloy, which can then be masked and etched using photolithographic techniques in a manner similar to chromium. Proportions between 15 and 85 atomic percent of molybdenum can be processed more easily than pure molybdenum and are more conductive than pure chromium. Lines with between 40 and 60 atomic percent molybdenum can be used with a margin of error. To produce a tapered conductive line, sublayers of MoCr alloys with different etch rates can be produced and etched.
