Abstract
A 30 keV dual beam system with focused ion and electron beams has been used to develop a fast fabrication process of field emitter arrays (F EAs). The gate opening was fabricated by reactive focused ion beam etc hing. Pt cathode tips were deposited through gate opening using electr on beam induced chemical reaction. Pt tips fabricated in the over-etch ed Si FEA showed field emission. A prototype of a nanometer-sized FEA was fabricated using a dual beam technique with FIB etching and electr on beam induced deposition.
