MULTI-BEAM SYSTEM AND MULTI-BEAM GENERATING UNIT WITH REDUCED SENSITIVITY TO DRIFT AND DAMAGES

A multi-beam generating unit of a multi-beam charged particle imaging system can exhibit reduced sensitivity to drift and extended lifetime. Drifts due to x-ray irradiation and thermal loads can be minimized by a combination of at least one of a shielding element, a cooling member, or an architectur...

Zusammenfassung:A multi-beam generating unit of a multi-beam charged particle imaging system can exhibit reduced sensitivity to drift and extended lifetime. Drifts due to x-ray irradiation and thermal loads can be minimized by a combination of at least one of a shielding element, a cooling member, or an architecture and method for operating an active multi-aperture element. A lifetime can be improved by annealing methods of an active multi-aperture element or a microelectronic device forming for example a voltage supply unit.
