Study on Secondary Electron Collection Efficiency Based on Electron Optical System

中文摘要英文摘要

针对扫描电子显微镜中二次电子信号收集效率不足的问题,基于电磁场建模与数值模拟方法,研究了二次电子运动特性及其对收集效率的影响机制.通过MEBS软件3D模块,建立了典型成像系统下二次电子运动轨迹的电磁场数值模型.通过对探测器电位、探测器尺寸与工作距离等参数的仿真分析,系统探讨了提高收集效率的优化策略.在仿真过程中,采用有限差分法计算成像系统电磁场分布,并基于三维轨迹模拟追踪二次电子的运动行为.结果表明,适当提高探测器电位可显著提升收集率,在样品室侧壁ET探测器系统中,电位为300 V时收集效率明显高于200 V和100 V.但电位过高会导致表面电荷积累,影响主束稳定性,因此需在收集效率与束流稳定性之间权衡.仿真还显示,增大探测器尺寸能扩大二次电子捕获范围,提高信号收集率.镜筒内环形探测器外径由8.6 mm增至9.8 mm时,收集效率由27.78%提升至50%;样品室侧壁ET探测器直径由5mm增至8mm时,效率由11.11%升至22.22%.但探测器尺寸的增大需兼顾系统稳定性及空间布局要求.此外,工作距离对收集效率亦有显著影响.在加速电压8000V下,工作距离为12 mm时收集效率可达22.22%,而18 mm时降至10%.短工作距离有助于提高二次电子引导效率,需结合电压条件与探测器配置优化设置.研究结果为扫描电子显微镜中信号电子收集系统的优化设计提供了理论支持,对提升成像质量与信号稳定性具有重要意义,可为SEM探测系统的优化设计提供理论依据和工程参考.

To address the issue of insufficient secondary electron collection efficiency in scanning electron microscopes,the motion characteristics of secondary electrons and their influence mechanisms on collection efficiency are studied based on electromagnetic field modeling and numerical simulation methods.A numerical model of the electromagnetic field for secondary electron trajectories under typical imaging systems is established using the 3D module of MEBS software.Through simulation analysis of parameters such as detector potential,detector size,and working distance,optimization strategies for improving collection efficiency are systematically explored.During the simulation process,the finite difference method is used to calculate the electromagnetic field distribution of the imaging system,and the motion behavior of secondary electrons is tracked based on three-dimensional trajectory simulations.The results show that appropriately increasing the detector potential significantly enhances the collection efficiency.In the ET detector system located on the chamber sidewall,when the potential is set to 300 V,the collection efficiency is markedly higher than that at 200 V and 100 V.However,an excessively high potential causes surface charge accumulation,which affects the stability of the primary beam;therefore,a trade-off between collection efficiency and beam stability must be considered.The simulations also reveal that enlarging the detector size expands the capture range for secondary electrons and improves signal collection efficiency.When the outer diameter of the in-lens annular detector is increased from 8.6 mm to 9.8 mm,the collection efficiency rises from 27.78%to 50%;when the diameter of the ET detector on the chamber sidewall is increased from 5 mm to 8 mm,the efficiency increases from 11.11%to 22.22%.However,the enlargement of the detector size must also take into account system stability and spatial layout requirements.Moreover,the working distance exerts a significant impact on collection efficiency.Under an accelerating voltage of 8000 V,when the working distance is 12 mm,the collection efficiency reaches 22.22%,whereas at 18 mm,it decreases to 10%.A shorter working distance facilitates the guiding efficiency of secondary electrons and must be optimized in conjunction with voltage conditions and detector configurations.The research results provide theoretical support for the optimization design of signal electron collection systems in scanning electron microscopes and hold significant importance for enhancing imaging quality and signal stability,offering theoretical guidance and engineering references for the optimization of SEM detector systems.
