a) Principles
How does it work..?
Ion source, optics, interaction with the
sample
b) Basic Application
Imaging, milling, deposition, typical
applications
TEM sample preparation, examples
c) FIB Nanotomography, 3D microscopy
FIB: Nano-machining
• Machining (sputtering)
• chemically assisted deposition
and etching (gas injector
system)
• Ion beam induced imaging
(channeling contrast), SE and SI
• Micromanipulation (multiple
micromanipulators) of small
objects (<10nm precision)
• Nano-scale “laboratory”
MSE-704 3D Microscopy and FIB Nanotomography 5
• Ions
• Electrons
• Big
• are very small ->outer shell reactions (no x-rays)
inner shell reactions
• High interaction probability
• High penetration depth less penetration depth
• Low mass -> higher speed • Ions can remain trapped -> doping
for given energy
• High mass -> slow speed but high
• Electrons are negative momentum
• Magnetic lens (Lorentz milling !!!
force) • Ions are positive
• Electrostatic lenses
• Sputtering
• Damage
• Secondary electron
emission (SE-image) • Implantation
2-3 SE per Ion !
• Surface chemical
reactions
- deposition
- enhanced etching
a) ion beam
• Emission of secondary ions and electrons
– FIB imaging a)
low ion current
secondary e
– FIB milling b)
high ion current b) Ion beam
c) Ion beam
• Other effects:
• Ion implantation precursor
• Displacement of atoms in the solid molecules
• Emission of phonons
volatile products
– Heating
