    摘要: In a SEM device which enables observations under an atmospheric pressure, in the event that a diaphragm is damaged during an observation of a sample, air flows into a charged particle optical barrel from the vicinity of the sample, due to the differential pressure between the inside of the charged particle optical barrel under vacuum and the vicinity of the sample under the atmospheric pressure. At this time, the sample may be sucked into the charged particle optical barrel. In this case, a charged particle optical system and a detector are contaminated thereby, which causes performance degradation or failures of the charged particle microscope. For coping therewith, it is necessary to prevent the charged particle optical barrel from being contaminated, without inducing a time lag, with a simple structure. In a charged particle beam device adapted to place a sample in a non-vacuum environment, there is provided a filter member which is placed on the path of a primary charged particle beam at least in a state where the primary charged particle beam is directed to the sample and, further, is adapted to transmit or pass, therethrough, the primary charged particle beam and secondary charged particles derived from the sample, while intercepting at least a portion of a scattering substance which is scattered in the event of a fracture of the diaphragm.

    摘要: Proposed is a method for providing uniform distribution of plasma density in a CCP plasma processing apparatus. According to the method the through gas holes of the showerhead of used in the plasma processing chamber of the apparatus are provided with conical nozzles formed on the side of the gas holes that face the gas reservoir of the cooler plate. The cone angle θ of the nozzles decreases in the direction from the peripheral portion to the central area of the showerhead in the range from 120° to 0°. Since the conical nozzles increase the gas gap between the showerhead and the cooler plate, more favorable conditions are created for electric breakdown. In order to protect the surfaces of the conical nozzles and gas holes from deterioration by hollow cathode discharge, these surface are coated by a protective coating resistant to electrical breakdown and chemical corrosion.

    摘要: Positive ions that fly within an ion acceleration tube are accelerated by a plurality of acceleration electrodes arranged within the ion acceleration tube and are irradiated to an irradiation target. A plurality of magnet devices is arranged within the ion acceleration tube; the directions of the lines of magnetic force formed respectively by the magnet devices are made to differ between the adjacent magnet devices by an angle of more than 0 degree and at most 90 degrees or less; and each of the lines of magnetic force is rotated in one direction within the ion acceleration tube. Electrons travelling in reverse within the ion acceleration tube are made to intersect the lines of magnetic force, and made to increase a distance from a flying axis while traveling in reverse. Since the electrons collide with members within the ion acceleration tube and stop before having high energy, high-energy X-rays are not generated.
