Methods, devices and systems for patterning of substrates using charged particle beams without photomasks and without a resist layer. Material can be removed from a substrate, as directed by a design layout database, localized to positions targeted by multiple, matched charged particle beams. Reducing the number of process steps, and eliminating lithography steps, in localized material removal has the dual benefit of reducing manufacturing cycle time and increasing yield by lowering the probability of defect introduction. Furthermore, highly localized, precision material removal allows for controlled variation of removal rate and enables creation of 3D structures or profiles. Local gas injectors and detectors, and local photon injectors and detectors, are local to corresponding ones of the columns, and can be used to facilitate rapid, accurate, targeted substrate processing.

An improved method of beam deposition to deposit a low-resistivity metal. Preferred embodiments of the present invention use a novel focused ion beam induced deposition precursor to deposit low-resistivity metallic material such as tin. Applicants have discovered that by using a methylated or ethylated metal such as hexamethylditin as a precursor, material can be deposited having a resistivity as low as 40 μΩ·cm.

A sample preparation method includes processing a sample by an ion beam to form a thin film portion having a thickness that allows an electron beam to transmit therethrough; supplying deposition gas to the thin film portion; and irradiating the thin film portion with an electron beam to simultaneously form a deposition film on a front surface of the thin film portion and a deposition film on a rear surface of the thin film portion opposed to the front surface. The electron beam transmits through the thin film portion, generating secondary electrons from both the front and rear surfaces that decompose the deposition gas to form the deposition films.

A method of forming a low temperature silicide film on a substrate includes supplying a source gas to a cluster formation chamber to form a gas cluster that is subsequently moved to an ionization-acceleration chamber to form a gas cluster ion beam (GCIB). The GCIB is injected into a processing chamber containing the substrate. A precursor gas is injected through an injection device located on a top portion of the processing chamber to form a silicide film on the substrate by bombarding the substrate with the GCIB in the presence of the precursor gas.
