  • Patent number: 9837245
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a micro stage using a piezoelectric element that can be reliably operated even in a vacuum environment. In a particle column requiring a high precision, for example, a microelectronic column, the micro stage can be used as a stage with micro or nano degree precision for alignment of parts of the column, or for moving a sample, and so on.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8173978
    Abstract: Provided is a method for controlling electron beams in a multi-microcolumn, in which unit microcolumns having an electron emitter, a lens, and a deflector are arranged in an n×m matrix. A voltage is uniformly or differentially applied to each electron emitter or extractor. The same control voltage or different voltages are applied to a region at coordinates in a control division area of each extractor to deflect the electron beams. Lens layers not corresponding to the extractors are collectively or individually controlled so as to efficiently control the electron beams of the unit microcolumn. Further, a multi-microcolumn using the method is provided.

  • Patent number: 8044351
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electron column including an electron emission source and lenses, and, more particularly, to an electron column having a structure that can facilitate the alignment and assembly of an electron emission source and lenses. The electron column having an electron emission source and a lens unit according to the present invention is characterized in that the lens unit includes two or more lens layers and performs both a source lens function and a focusing function. Furthermore, the electron column is characterized in that the lens unit includes one or more deflector-type lens layers and additionally performs a deflector function.
