Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for measuring the charge environment in an environmental scanning electron microscope. The method can measure the sample current in the Faraday cup and the sample, that is, the space charge current. Background technique
[0002] Ordinary scanning electron microscope (SEM) cannot directly observe non-conductive samples, because the high-energy incident electrons irradiated on the surface of non-conductive samples cannot be conducted away through the non-conductive ground, and the charge accumulates on the surface of the sample, resulting in charging and discharging phenomena, that is, charging effect . The charging effect will cause distortion or abnormal contrast of the scanning image, and will also bring errors to the composition analysis. Therefore, only non-conductive samples can be observed by ordinary scanning electron microscopes after conducting conductive treatment. Based on the above defects, a new type of en...
