High-Efficiency Silicon Photodiode Detector for Sub-keV Electron Microscopy
A silicon photodiode detector is presented for use in scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Enhanced imaging capabilities are achieved for sub-keV electron energy values by employing a pure boron (PureB) layer photodiode technology to deposit nanometer-thin photosensitive anodes. As a result, imaging...

description | A silicon photodiode detector is presented for use in scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Enhanced imaging capabilities are achieved for sub-keV electron energy values by employing a pure boron (PureB) layer photodiode technology to deposit nanometer-thin photosensitive anodes. As a result, imaging using backscattered electrons is demonstrated for 50-eV electron landing energy values. The detector is built up of several closely packed photodiodes, and to obtain high scanning speed, each photodiode is engineered with low series resistance and low capacitance values.
