[0002] Argon ion beam cross-section polishing is a technology widely used in material cross-section processing. Its mechanism is to remove materials based on the principle of ion beam sputtering. Compared with other common material surface polishing technologies, such as mechanical polishing, ion beam polishing is carried out in an inert gas, without oxidation or decarburization. The processing accuracy can reach above the atomic level, the processing environment is stable, and the surface of the polished material is almost not deformed, with good surface quality. These advantages also make ion beam polishing technology widely used in various industries, such as semiconductors, lithium batteries, etc.
[0003] During the ion beam polishing process, dust and debris will be generated, which will be scattered and accumulated on the inner wall of the sample chamber, the sample stage, the ion gun, the window baffle and other accessories. As the dust particles accumulate, the ion gun will short-circuit and fail to emit the ion beam, causing the instrument to fail to work. In addition, the dust accumulation on the sample stage and the window baffle will affect the position of the sample cutting and the judgment of the cutting progress. At present, when the ion gun short-circuits due to the accumulation of dust and debris, engineers need to disassemble the entire instrument for cleaning and maintenance.
