Abstract
Description
以降では便宜上、1 keV以上かつ、一次電子線の照射エネルギー以下の電子のうち、バンドパス検出したい所望のエネルギーより高いエネルギーの電子を高エネルギー電子、所望のエネルギーより低いエネルギーの電子を低エネルギー電子と呼ぶ。また、100 eV以下のエネルギーの電子を極低エネルギー電子と呼ぶ。
極低エネルギー電子6を検出する電子検出器2は、シンチレータ9と光電子増倍器11およびシンチレータから発生する光子を光電子増倍管へ導くライトガイド10を備える。
本検出器構成をバンドパスフィルタとして用いる必須の条件として、高エネルギーの電子7を直接検出しないようにしなければならない。これは導電膜1と検出器の感受面であるシンチレータ9の面の配置を工夫することで達成される。
以下では、本発明の代表的な実施例について図を用いて説明する。
図2に示した走査電子顕微鏡は、大まかには、試料に対して電子線を照射するための機構を備えた電子光学鏡筒13と、試料50を保持する試料台49と試料台49を格納する試料室14と、図示しない制御処理や各種画像処理、あるいはユーザインタフェースに関わる情報処理を行う図示しない情報処理部、および走査電子顕微鏡画像を表示する図示しない画像表示端末、画像メモリにより構成される。
対物レンズ21は、レンズの下面より下に配置された試料50に意図的に出力磁場中を浸透させるセミインレンズ型の対物レンズであり、位置的には試料室14の内部に配置される場合もあるが、便宜上、電子光学系鏡筒13に属する構成要素であるとして説明する。
電子源15から放出された200 keV以下のエネルギーを持つ一次電子線3は、C1レンズ16によって第一の収束点23に収束され、後にアパーチャ24を通過する。このとき、一次電子線3の不要な領域が除去される。C1レンズ16を制御して一次電子線3の第一の収束点23の位置を制御する。
また、C2レンズ17より試料側の構成は図3の第二の実施例と同様であっても良い。
また、C2レンズ17より試料側の構成は図3の第二の実施例と同様であっても良い。
また、第六の実施例で説明した高エネルギー電子を検出する検出系である39、40、41の構成は、図5に示した第四の実施例の導電膜B31とアパーチャ24の間隙に配置してもよい。その場合、導電膜B31を通過した高角度の高エネルギー電子を検出することが可能になる。
図8に示した走査電子顕微鏡は、図2に示した第一の実施例と比較してアパーチャ24とC2レンズ17の位置が入れ替わっている。これは、放射角電流密度が大きい一方で、光源径が大きいタングステン熱電子銃のような電子源を用いる場合に有効な電子光学鏡筒であり、C1レンズ16、C2レンズ17は一次電子線3の縮小に用いられる。その他の構成は第一の実施例と同じであり、エネルギーバンドパス検出は第一の実施例と同様に行われる。この場合、導電膜A43は検出部A用ExB20とアパーチャ24の間隙に一次電子線3の光軸と垂直に配置される。なお、第二の実施例から第六の実施例までの走査電子顕微鏡も同様に、鏡筒が第八の実施例と同様の構成となっていてもよい。
図9に示した走査電子顕微鏡は図8に示した第七の実施例からC2レンズが無くなった形状をしている。コンデンサレンズが一段になったため、制御がしやすいのが特徴である。
ただし、第七の実施例と比較して一次電子線3の縮小率を大きくできないため、典型的には、より光源径の小さい電界放出型の電子源を用いる。その他の構成は第一の実施例と同じであり、エネルギーバンドパス検出は第一の実施例と同様に行われる。この場合、導電膜A43は検出部A用ExB20とアパーチャ24の間隙に一次電子線3の光軸と垂直に配置される。なお、第二の実施例から第六の実施例までの走査電子顕微鏡も同様に、鏡筒が第八の実施例と同様の構成となっていてもよい。
図10に示した走査電子顕微鏡は、第一の実施例と対物レンズが異なっている。第九の実施例の対物レンズ44は、インレンズ型をしている。この形式では、レンズ場中に試料を置く事ができるため、セミインレンズ型の対物レンズよりも高分解能観察が可能である。
エネルギーバンドパス検出は第一の実施例と同様に行われる。なお、第二の実施例から第八の実施例までの走査電子顕微鏡も同様に、対物レンズがインレンズ型であってもよい。
図11に示した走査電子顕微鏡は、第一の実施例と対物レンズが異なっている。第十の実施例の対物レンズ45は、アウトレンズ型をしている。この形式では、試料が対物レンズ45の磁場に晒されないため、磁性体サンプルなどの観察が可能である。
第十の実施例では、これまでの実施例と異なり、試料が磁場中に置かれないため、バンドパス検出の対象となる1 keVから一次電子線の照射エネルギーまでのエネルギー幅をもつ信号電子の多くは直進する。そこで、第十の実施例では、対物レンズより試料側にバンドパス検出系を備える。第十のバンドパス検出系の構成は、図1-1の構成と同じである。
図12に示した走査電子顕微鏡は、第十の実施例とエネルギーバンドパス電子検出器の構成が異なっている。第十の実施例のエネルギーバンドパス電子検出器の構成は、第一の実施例の検出部B用ExB30から加速電極28までの構成が対物レンズ45と試料50の間隙に配置された構成をしている。エネルギーバンドパス検出は、第一の実施例と同様に行われる。
図14に示した走査電子顕微鏡は、第十の実施例とエネルギーバンドパス電子検出器の配置が異なっている。第十三の実施例では、導電膜A43、検出部C27が軸外に配置されている。試料と導電膜A43の間の角度は0 °から90 °の範囲であるが、検出器C27と試料との距離は導電膜A43の信号電子があたる面と試料との距離より遠い位置に配置される。この方法では、導電膜A43は中心穴を持たなくても良い。エネルギーバンドパス検出は、第十の実施例と同様に行われる。
直線導入器つきのホルダ47に、厚みの異なる複数の導電膜46を配置する。ホルダ47は一次電子線3に対して垂直に配置され、図示しない直線導入器により、それぞれの導電膜46の中心穴を一次電子線3が通過する状態に送り出すことができる。各導電膜の厚みが異なっているため、ユーザーはバンドパス検出したいエネルギーによって膜厚を選ぶことができる。所望のエネルギーの電子4が変換された極低エネルギー電子6を検出する検出器は図1-1と同様である。実施例1から13で示された導電膜A43、導電膜B31、導電膜C39のいずれもここで示したエネルギー可変機構を備えていても良い。
円盤もしくは扇形のホルダ48に、厚みの異なる複数の導電膜46を配置する。ホルダ48は一次電子線3に対して垂直に配置され、図示しない回転機構により、それぞれの導電膜46の中心穴を一次電子線3が通過する状態に配置するよう回転させることができる。
各導電膜の厚みが異なっているため、ユーザーはバンドパス検出したいエネルギーによって膜厚を選ぶことができる。所望のエネルギーの電子4が変換された極低エネルギー電子6を検出する検出器は図1-1と同様である。実施例1から13で示された導電膜A43、導電膜B31、導電膜C39のいずれもここで示したエネルギー可変機構を備えていても良い。
かかる構成により、低真空走査電子顕微鏡でもエネルギーバンドパス電子検出器が実現される。
所望のエネルギーの電子5は先述した実施例で述べたものと同様に、導電膜1の試料50と反対の面から極低エネルギー(数 eV)の電子6を発生させる。極低エネルギー電子6は、電界供給電極202の供給する電界によって、電界供給電極202の報告に加速される。この際に、極低エネルギー電子6は低真空雰囲気のガス分子と散乱し、一定の確率でガス分子をイオン化する。これにより発生したイオン204は、電界供給電極202に比べて低電位である導電膜1に向って移動する。その結果、極低エネルギー電子6の移動とイオン204の移動が原因となり、導電膜1に接続された電流増幅器203には変位電流(displacement current)が流れる。この変位電流は、極低エネルギー電子6の発生量、ひいては所望のエネルギー電子5の発生量に比例しており、変位電流を電流増幅器203によって増幅することで、所望のエネルギー電子5を信号元とする走査電子顕微鏡画像が得られる。
検出原理は図17の実施例と同様であり、かかる構成により、検出立体角を大きくすることができる。
検出原理は図17の実施例と同様であり、かかる構成により、試料直上の空間を別検出器に与えることが可能となる。
