Abstract: A method (and structure) for controlling a beam used to generate a pattern on a target surface includes generating a beam of charged particles and directing the beam to a mask surface and causing the beam to be either absorbed by or reflected from the mask surface, thereby either precluding or allowing the beam to strike the target surface, based on a reflection characteristic of the mask surface.
