Solid State Backscattered Electron Detectors with Improved Image Contrast and Detection Speed
The typical operation conditions in Scanning Electron Microscopy have changed a lot during the last two decades. Imaging of insulating layers or biological samples demand for the use of low electron energies and currents. These conditions are not only challenging for the microscope itself but also for their detection systems. Many currently used Backscattered Electron (BSE) detectors show a hig...
متن کاملElectron energy loss and diffraction of backscattered electrons from silicon
Electrons backscattered from crystals can show Kikuchi patterns: variations in intensity for different outgoing directions due to diffraction by the lattice. Here, we measure these effects as a function of their energy loss for 30 keV electrons backscattered from silicon. The change in diffraction contrast with energy loss depends strongly on the scattering geometry. At steep incidence on the s...
متن کاملSolid-state light-phase detector
Attosecond science relies on the use of intense, waveform-controlled, few-cycle laser pulses1 to control extreme nonlinear optical processes taking place within a fraction of an optical period. A number of techniques are available for retrieving the amplitude envelope and chirp of such few-cycle laser pulses. However, their full characterization requires detection of the absolute offset between...
متن کاملMaximum Load and Minimum Volume Structural Optimization
A bi-criteria optimization is considered whose objectives are the maximization of the load sustained by a structure and the minimization of the structure's volume. As the objectives are conflicting, the solution to the problem is of the Pareto type. The problem is elaborated for a thin-walled column of cruciform cross-section, prone to flexural and torsional buckling. A numerical example is als...
متن کاملSolid-state nanopores and nanopore arrays optimized for optical detection.
While conventional solid-state nanopore measurements utilize ionic current, there is a growing interest in alternative sensing paradigms, including optical detection. However, a limiting factor in the application of optical schemes in particular is the inherent background fluorescence created by the solid-state membrane itself, which can interfere with the desired signal and place restrictions ...
