Description
(電子ビーム露光装置の構成)
図1に、本実施形態に係る電子ビーム露光装置の構成図を示す。
(電子銃の構成)
図2に、電子銃101の構成図を示す。本実施形態において、電子銃101は熱電界放射型を使用する。電子銃101は、電子源20と、引き出し電極21と、引き出し電極21の下方に配置される加速電極25と、電子源20の両側に配されたカーボン製の電子源加熱用発熱体22と、電子源20と電子源加熱用発熱体22とを支持する支持具23と、支持具23を支持して囲んでいるサプレッサー電極24とを有している。電子源は、例えば単結晶のLaB6またはCeB6を用いる。
(引き出し電極の構成)
次に、本実施形態で使用する引き出し電極21の構成について図4を参照して説明する。
(電子源の構成)
次に、本実施形態で使用する電子源20の構成について説明する。
(電子源の表面に電子放出を制限する領域を形成する方法)
次に、上記の電子放出を制限する領域を電子源20に形成する方法について説明する。
(露光方法)
次に、本実施形態の電子銃を使用した露光装置の露光方法について説明する。
(効果)
以上説明したように、本実施形態では、引き出し電極21の電子放出面20aに対向する部分を球状凹面にしている。これにより、引き出し電極21と電子放出面20aとの間の電位分布を球面状にすることができ、電子放出面近傍の電位を極めて大きくすることができる。従って、熱電界放射型の電子銃を使用して低温で動作させても、電子ビームの輝度を大きくすることが可能となる。
Claims (1)
- 電子を放出する電子源と、前記電子源の電子放出面と対向して配置され前記電子を加速する加速電極と、前記電子放出面と前記加速電極との間に配置され、前記電子放出面に向かって光軸上に中心を持つ球状の凹部を有し、当該電子放出面から電子を引き出す引き出し電極と、前記電子放出面の前記引き出し電極と反対側に配置され、前記電子源の側面からの電子放出を抑制するサプレッサー電極と、を有する電子銃を備えた電子ビーム露光装置を用いた電子ビーム露光方法において、
所定の時間の間、前記引き出し電極の電位が前記電子源の先端部の電位よりも低くなるように電圧を印加し、電子源全体に通常の使用電圧値よりも絶対値の大きな電圧を印加した後、
前記電子源電圧を通常の使用電圧値に戻し、
その後、前記引き出し電極の電位が前記電子源の先端部の電位よりも高くなるように電圧を印加して露光を行うことを特徴とする電子ビーム露光方法。
