ABSTRACT:
A focused ion beam (FIB) system has an ion beam from an ion source, a condenser lens, a current-limiting aperture, an electrostatic angular aperture control lens, an electrostatic objective lens, and a controller which controls the angular aperture control lens with a polarity with which charged particles are decelerated and the objective lens with a polarity with which the charged particles are accelerated.
