摘要: A scanning electron microscope and a method for evaluating a sample, the method may include (a) illuminating the sample with a primary electron beam, (b) directing secondary electrons emitted from the sample and propagated above a first scintillator, towards an upper portion of the first scintillator, wherein the first scintillator and a second scintillator are positioned between the sample and a column electrode of the column; wherein the first scintillator is positioned above the second scintillator; (c) detecting the secondary electrons by the first scintillator; (d) directing backscattered electrons emitted from the sample towards a lower portion of the second scintillator; and (e) detecting the backscattered electrons by the second scintillator.

摘要: A computer program product and a method for dissipation of an electrical charge stored in a region of an object. The method may include (a) sensing, by at least one sensor, an electrical charging status of the region of the object, while the object is located within a vacuum chamber and while a gaseous pressure within the vacuum chamber is below a certain vacuum pressure threshold; and (b) performing, based on the charging status of the given region, an electrical charge dissipation process that comprises increasing the gaseous pressure within the vacuum chamber to be within a given gaseous pressure range that facilitates a dissipation, by breakdown, of the electrical charge stored in the region of the object to the vacuum chamber.

摘要: According to an embodiment of the invention there may be provided a system that may include a specimen chamber, an exchange chamber, a pressure monitor; and a controller. The exchange chamber may be configured to (i) receive a specimen when an exchange chamber pressure maintained within the exchange chamber is at a first pressure level, (ii) reduce the exchange chamber pressure to be lower than a specimen vapor pressure. The pressure monitor may be configured to perform, during a measurement period, at least one measurement of the exchange chamber pressure. The exchange chamber may be configured to stop a reduction of the exchange chamber pressure during the measurement period.
