摘要:
A sample semiconductor device which is processed and/or observed with the focused liquid metal ion beam can be returned again to the manufacturing process in this invention. The metal ions used in this apparatus are generally Ga ions. Ga ions contaminate a semiconductor device and a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus by auto-doping. An area which is irradiated with a focused liquid metal ion is doped by the metal ions which are subsequently removed by irradiation with a gas ion beam or covered by hard fusing metal.

The problem of the present invention is to provide a TEM sample equipped with an identifying function for easily specifying a detailed TEM sample and to provide a system for handling the management of information relating to the TEM sample using the TEM when making observations that is constructed with the FIB device manufacturing the sample. The TEM sample of the present invention is written with a mark encoding information specifying the sample at a specified location of a peripheral part. Information relating to the sample filed taking sample specifying information as an index is supplied to a TEM as associated matter. The sample working FIB device and observation TEM device of the present invention are provided with a function enabling writing of information relating to the sample and images to the file during operation which is then read out and utilized on a display.
摘要:
An apparatus for processing and observing a sample has a sample stage for supporting a sample at a preselected location thereof, a focused ion beam irradiation system for irradiating the sample with a focused ion beam along an optical axis to cut out a portion from the sample, and a side entry stage disposed over the sample stage and extending slantingly with respect to the optical axis of the focused ion beam irradiated by the focused ion beam irradiation system. The side entry stage has a microscope sample holder for picking up the cut-out sample portion directly from the preselected location of the sample and for supporting the sample portion. The microscope sample holder is configured to be removed from the side entry stage while supporting the sample portion and to be connected to an entry stage of a microscope device for observing the sample portion.

An electron microscope has a focused ion beam column positioned relative to an electron beam column so that the focused ion beam substantially perpendicularly intersects the electron beam. A backscattered electron detector is positioned relative to the focused ion beam column so that the direction normal to a detection plane of the backscattered electron detector is substantially perpendicular to the direction of the focused ion beam. The backscattered electron detector is configured and positioned to detect backscattered electrons released in a spread of at least about 70 degrees in width from the surface of the section by irradiation of the section with the electron beam 1a.

A composite focused ion beam device includes a first ion beam irradiation system 10 including a liquid metallic ion source for generating a first ion, and a second ion beam irradiation system 20 including a gas field ion source for generating a second ion. A beam diameter of the second ion beam 20A emitted from the second ion beam irradiation system 20 is smaller than that of the first ion beam 10A emitted from the first ion beam irradiation system 1
摘要:
Detected is a secondary electron generated by irradiating a focused ion beam while performing etching a sample section and the around through scan-irradiating the focused ion beam. From a changing amount of the detected secondary electron signal an end-point detecting mechanism detects an end point to thereby terminate the etching, so that a center position of a defect or a contact hole is effectively detected even with an FIB apparatus not having a SEM observation function.

An dermatological agent for external use is disclosed which contains a chromanol glycoside represented by the following general formula (1) (wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 which may be the same or different, each represent a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, R5 represents a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, or a lower acyl group, X represents a monosaccharic residue or an oligosaccharic residue optionally having the hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group in the saccharic residue substituted with a lower alkyl group or a lower acyl group, n represents an integer in the range of 0-6, and m represents an integer in the range of 1-6). This is a novel dermatological agent for external use which excels in stability and percutaneous absorbency, manifests an effective action safely at a small application rate, and effectively prevents and cures the dermopathy. It is very useful as an agent for preventing and curing the disorders caused by the ultraviolet light, an agent for preventing and allaying the sedimentation of pigment in the skin, an agent for beautifying the skin in white, an agent for preventing the senescence of the skin, an agent for activating cells, an agent for preventing and curing the dermopathy, and a cosmetic preparation.
