ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an ion beam processing apparatus comprising within a vacuum container a specimen chamber with a table for mounting a specimen provided therein, a high intensity ion source, such as a liquid metal ion source or an electric field ionizing ion source which operates in ultra-low temperature, confronting the specimen chamber, an extraction electrode for extracting an ion beam out of the ion source, a charged-particle optical system for focusing the ion beam to a spot, and an aperture for adjusting the spot diameter.
