An ion source has been designed to operate in the chamber of the Stereoscan scanning electron microscope and provides facilities for etching specimens in situ. The source is a demountable cold cathode discharge type requiring only simple control.The ion beam described above has been used to progressively etch away hard or resilient biological material. This is the first time that ion beam etching of botanical specimens has been followed inside the scanning microscope, and marks the beginning of a range of dynamic experiments using this form of instrumentation.

AbstractThis paper describes a laboratory built ion beam etching system and its performance when used for etching Hg1-xCdxTe, GaAs and InP. The etching system provides a means for forming device mesas on a wide range of semiconductors without having to resort to wet chemical etches. The system uses a Kaufmann ion source, a rotating platform and two flow controllers to allow the variation of gas ratios and flows.

ABSTRACTA wide-aperture reactive gas ion source has been developed for various ion-beam processings in high vacuum (p < < 5×10−2 Pa). The peculiar feature of the ion source is that two-stage self-maintained low-pressure discharge is used here as a plasma emitter. This provides high operating parameters of the source along with simple diode-type structure.
