- Minimum scan bit size: 10 pm.
- Z range: 1.3 μm.
- Minimum bit size: 1 pm.
System Capabilities
- Heater station for Sample Preparation
- Si MBE source
- Precursor gas dosing chambers
Advanced Position Controls
- Local piezo tube calibration based on lattice recognition, including determination of lattice angle relative to piezo tube axes.
- Lattice phase recognition for precise lithography positioning.
- Creep and Hysteresis position correction (CHC) in xyz.
- Initial optimization of creep and hysteresis over scan range during installation. (Fine optimization by user required periodically.)
Hydrogen Depassivation Lithography (HDL)
- Two spot size modes available:
- AP mode ( single-dimer-row line width)
- FE mode ( wide line width, rough edges)
Advanced Scripting Capabilities
- We provide scripts based on Python for test HDL patterns, creep correction calibration, lithography parameter calibration, etc.
- User-written scripts can be easily incorporated and run using command line interface or drop-down menu.
