Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus for processing a fine pattern of a sample of one of an electronic device, molecular device and bioelemtn device, wherein a needle having a sharpened tip is disposed in opposed relation to the sample with a gap therebetween. A voltage is applied between the needle and the sample so as to enable a tunnel current and/or a field emission current to flow therebetween and the fine pattern is provided to correct the fine pattern by effecting at least one of removal, repositioning, annealing and film formation of at least one of individual atoms and individual molecules.
