New Multibeam SEM/FIB for Simultaneous Micro Milling and High Resolution SEM Imaging

30 Jan, 2008

Published over 18 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Microscopy & microtechniques.

Jeol USA introduces a new high throughput SEM/FIB that combines Focused Ion Beam micro milling with the high resolution imaging of the Jeol LaB6 electron column. The MultiBeam is a high-productivity tool for IC defect analysis, circuit modification, TEM thin film sample preparation, and mask repair.

A versatile all-in-one system, the MultiBeam features Serial Slicing and Sampling (S3TM) for in-process monitoring of milling, fabrication, and reconstructing 3D images of the sectioned area. A maximum milling current of 30 nA ensures high throughput milling of large areas.

Additional features include low vacuum operation for non-conductive specimens without coating or alteration, a gas injection system for etching and deposition, a large stage for up to 150 mm samples, and a multiple port design for a range of analytical needs. Samples are loaded through a standard airlock system.

Two new nano-imaging labs will take delivery of the MultiBeam systems in early 2008. Jeol USA has formed a partnership with both the University of Southern California and Boston College which will advance applications research on the east and west coasts
