Abstract
For the measurements of surface shape milled using FIB (focused ion beam), the silicon bulk, , and Al/Si samples are used and observed the shapes milled from different sputtering rates, incident angles of ions bombardment, beam current, and target material. These conditions also can be influenced the sputtering rate, raster image, and milled shape. The fundamental ion-solid interactions of FIB milling are discussed and explained using TRIM programs (SRIM, TC, and T-dyn). The damaged layers caused by bombarding of ions were observed on the surface of target materials. The simulated results were shown a little bit deviation with the experimental data due to relatively small sputtering rate on the sample surface. The simulation results showed about 10.6% tolerance from the measured data at 200 pA. On the other hand, the improved analytical model of damaged layer was matched well with experimental XTEM (cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy) data.
