An ultra-miniaturized electron optical microcolumn is provided. The electron optical microcolumn includes an electron-emitting source emitting electrons using a field emission principle, an extraction electrode causing the emission of electrons from the electron-emitting source, a focusing electrode to which voltage is flexibly applied in response to a working distance to a target for regulating a focusing force of electron beams emitted from the electron-emitting source, an acceleration electrode accelerating electrons emitted by the extraction electrode, a limit electrode regulating an amount and a size of electron beams using electrons accelerated by the acceleration electrode, and a deflector deflecting electron beams towards the target.

Disclosed is monolayer and/or few-layer graphene on metal or metal-coated substrates. Embodiments include graphene mirrors. In an example, a mirror includes a substrate that has a surface exhibiting a curvature operable to focus an incident beam onto a focal plane. A graphene layer conformally adheres to the substrate, and is operable to protect the substrate surface from degradation due to the incident beam and an ambient environment.

Electron beam profile testing and analysis method is introduced using the MOMS apparatus. The MOMS apparatus includes a Faraday Cup with a knife-wires scanning system which together perform simultaneous measurements. The scanning system has a five-dimensional processing mechanism for measuring different cross sections of an e-beam profile in a path of the e-beam. Measurements are conducted using the scanning system by virtually dividing each cross section into a plurality of subsections and measuring independent current values of at least one wire of the scanning system through which the electron beam passes from every pixel in each of the plurality of subsections. By providing relative movement between the scanning system and e-beam, the measured independent current values are analyzed to obtain the functional form of distribution of current density of the cross-section of the e-beam. The Faraday cup enables simultaneous measurement of the total value of the current.

A submount is used for disposing an illuminant element or a light-receiving element having an optical axis. The submount is disposed at a plane and has a main body. The main body includes a first surface and a second surface. The first surface is approximately parallel to the plane and far away from the plane. The second surface is approximately parallel to the plane and adjacent to the plane. A disposing part of the first surface is tilted with respect to the second surface at a predetermined angle. The illuminant element or the light-receiving element is disposed on the disposing part. The optical axis of the illuminant element or the light-receiving element is tiled with respect to a normal of the second surface at the predetermined angle.

Caesium-137 irradiates electronic paper. An incoming gamma-ray from the Cs-137 interacts with a particle inside a micro-container by generating a recoil electron and/or a hole. Because the recoil electron physically leaves the particle, the particle is charged depending on the dose from the radiation source. And, the charge of the particles change, which results in a movement of the particles within the micro-container. After refreshing the electronic paper, a visible difference in the gray-scale can be seen. Thus, the visible difference in the gray-scale is an effect caused by the irradiation of the electronic paper, showing sensitivity to high energy radiation--thus, non-optimized electronic paper is sensitive to high energy radiation and can be used as a radiation dosimeter. In addition, electronic paper can be used for sensing chemical and bio-chemical agents, as well as detecting high energy radiation.

A focused ion beam apparatus includes an ion gun unit having an emitter tip, a gas supply unit including an ion source gas nozzle configured to supply gas to the tip and an ion source gas supply source. An extracting electrode ionizes the gas adsorbed onto the surface of the tip and extracts ions by applying a voltage between the extracting electrode and the tip. A cathode electrode accelerates the ions toward a sample, and a gun alignment electrode positioned on the side of the sample with respect to the ion gun unit and adjusts the direction of irradiation of the ion beam ejected from the ion gun unit. A lens system includes a focusing lens electrode and an objective lens electrode to focus the ion beam onto the sample.
摘要:
Microengineered stacked ring electrode assemblies capable of acting as either RF or DC ion guides in an ion optical system, and method of fabricating same are described. The electrodes are fabricated using planar processing as sets of grooved, proud features formed in a layer of material lying on an insulating substrate. Two such structures are then stacked together to form a set of diaphragm electrodes with closed pupils. Arrangements for fabrication by patterning, etching and bonding are described, together with methods for tapering the electrode pupils or otherwise varying the ion path.
摘要:
A novel method of gating electron emission from field-emitter cathodes for radio frequency (RF) electrode guns and a novel cathode that provides a focused electron beam without the need for magnetic fields or a curved cathode surface are provided. The phase and strength of a predefined harmonic field, such as the 3rd harmonic field, are adjusted relative to a fundamental field to cause a field emission cathode to emit electrons at predefined times for the generation of high-brightness electron beams. The emission time is gated responsive to the combined harmonic and fundamental fields and the response of the FE cathode to the combined fields. A planar focusing cathode includes a selected dielectric material, such as a ceramic material, to provide an electron beam emission surface. Metal surfaces are provided both radially around and behind the dielectric material to shape the electric fields that accelerate and guide the beam from the cathode surface.

An optical scanner for three-dimensional scanning comprises: a support bed; a flat, transparent plate; guide rails under the transparent plate; a carriage slidably attached to the guide rails; and one or more sensors attached to the bed/case or carriage. For three-dimensional imaging, multiple scanned images of the object are obtained, each of which is from light reflecting off the object at a different angle with respect to the path of the carriage. This is done by shining light on the object and appropriately channeling reflected light, from at least two different directions, into the sensor(s). In one embodiment, the carriage has three CCD sensors, one oriented rearwards (with respect to the path of travel of the carriage), one oriented vertically, and one oriented forwards—each effectively “sees” the object from a different orientation. The multiple scanned images can be used for stereoscopic viewing and/or three-dimensional rendering using a computer.
