6 developed s ource module image taken with an Au Ge Si beam Crossover mode I = 1 na Summary: lowering the energy reduces the penetration depth (thinner contamination + amorphisation layer), reducing the angle between ion beam and surface to small values has negligible effect to the penetration depth varying the ion gives an additional free parameter for optimisation (high sputter yield for heavy ions, e.g. Au, small penetration depth) working with a S i beam s hould avoid the contamination problem in S i wafer applications an AuGeS i alloy source has been installed successfully at the FIB 44 in the mixed ion version the alloy source works satisfactory What remains to do / next s teps : detailed tes t of the alloy AuGeS i source experimental (FIB + Raman) verification of the SRIM results
