ABSTRACT:
A corrosion-resistant, long-life, high-capacity, power-efficient source substructure for a source of liquid-metal ions useable in focused-ion-beam apparatus. The substructure takes the form of an elongate carbon needle, pointed at one end, structurally supported entirely within the turns of an electrical heating coil having end leads which are conductively connected to, and structurally supported by, a pair of larger cross section electrical feeder legs.
