PARTICLE BEAM SYSTEM HAVING A MULTI-POLE LENS SEQUENCE FOR INDEPENDENTLY FOCUSSING A MULTIPLICITY OF INDIVIDUAL PARTICLE BEAMS, ITS USE AND ASSOCIATED METHOD

A particle beam system includes a multiple beam particle source to generate a multiplicity of charged individual particle beams, and a multi-pole lens sequence with first and second multi-pole lens arrays. The particle beam system also includes a controller to control the multi-pole lenses of the mu...

Zusammenfassung:A particle beam system includes a multiple beam particle source to generate a multiplicity of charged individual particle beams, and a multi-pole lens sequence with first and second multi-pole lens arrays. The particle beam system also includes a controller to control the multi-pole lenses of the multi-pole lens sequence so related groups of multi-pole lenses of the multi-pole lens sequence through which the same individual particle beam passes in each case altogether exert an individually adjustable and focussing effect on the respective individual particle beam passing therethrough.
