| 20080308751 | MULTI-FUNCTION MODULE FOR AN ELECTRON BEAM COLUMN - A multifunction module for an electron beam column comprises upper and lower electrodes, and a central ring electrode. The upper and lower electrodes have multipoles and are capable of deflecting, or correcting an aberration of, an electron beam passing through the electrodes. A voltage can be applied to the central ring electrode independently of the voltages applied to the upper and lower electrodes to focus the electron beam on a substrate. | 12-18-2008 |
