When SIM image data D[n] of a mark is compared with reference SIM image data in calculating a displacement of machining position in the nth time, image data D[n−1] just before the nth time is employed as the reference image data and a position displacement of the image is obtained from matching processing of the two kinds of image data of D[n] and D[n−1] to calculate a displacement of machining position.
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.

A device for generating voltage signals in a semiconductor device upon irradiation with a charged particle beam, wherein a circuit for converting a beam current of the irradiated charged particle beam into the voltage signals is constituted by a bipolar transistor and a load device contained in the semiconductor device, and a portion of the line pattern connected to the base of the bipolar transistor is irradiated with the charged particle beam, so that signals are generated at high speeds even by using a weak charged particle beam without permitting the device to be broken down.

A specimen or substrate cutting method of cutting or processing a predetermined portion of a specimen or substrate in a direction of depth thereof by generating a focused charged particle beam from a particle beam source and irradiating the predetermined portion of the specimen or substrate with the focused charged particle beam is disclosed in which a particle species of the charged particle beam is selected such that each of the melting point of the particle species itself and the melting point of an alloy or compound of the particle species and constituent atoms of the specimen or substrate is not lower than 3/2 times of the temperature of the specimen or substrate in units of absolute temperature. A secondary ion mass-spectroscopic analysis method is also disclosed in which the charged particle beam is used as a probe to mass-analyze secondary charged ion successively generated from the cut portion of the specimen or substrate.

When a desired portion is separated from an integrated circuit chip or a semiconductor wafer, the portion is separated without dividing the chip or the wafer, so that the separated specimen can be moved to a desired position, and the separated specimen can be set to a desired attitude. Therefore, various analyses on the specimen through TEM, SEM, SIMS and so on can be carried out. A minute piece of specimen is cut and separated from the substrate of a specimen by use of a three-dimensional minute processing technique and a micro-manipulation technique. A surface of the specimen is subjected to an FIB processing from at least two kinds of angles, the separated specimen being mechanically connected to an external probe in a step for separating a part of the specimen including a portion to be analyzed. The separated specimen is supported by the probe, being moved. The separated specimen is subjected to analysis through TEM, SEM, SIMS, etc.
