This system uses the vector scan approach for electron beam deflection within a field, step and repeat for stage movement between fields, the combination of which allows the entire area of the sample to be exposed to the electron beam.

The machine can be run at 25, 50 and 100 kV. Note however that only the 100kV mode is used at UCSB.

The Raith Velion ion beam tool was installed at UCSB in 2020 and signed off and avaiable for. use in early 2021.

Detailed Specifications

nanoFIB column:

  • Liquid Metal Alloy Ion Sources (LMAIS) providing ions for Gallium-free patterning (Au, Si)
  • High resolution patterning capabilities (minimum feature size < 15nm)
  • Fully corrected write fields (distortion, stigmation)
  • Long term current stability (days)

Laser Interferometer stage:

  • Mechanical movement at 1nm precision
  • Continuous stage modes for stitch free FIB patterning on full 4”wafer scale
  • Stitching and overlay accuracy:  < 50 nm ( mean+3 sigma)

FE SEM

  • Process control for rapid prototyping

Additional Capabilities:  

  • Automated height sensing to detect sample surface height variation for automated correction
  • Pt Gas Iinjection System (GIS) deposition
  • Raith Nanosuite software incl. CAD (GDSII) navigation & patterning
