What does the SEM do?
• An instrument for observing and analyzing the surface microstructure of a bulk sample using a finely focused beam of energetic electrons
• An electron-optical system is used to form the electron probe which is scanned across the surface of the sample (raster pattern).
• Various signals are generated through the interaction of this beam with the sample. These signals are collected by appropriate detectors.
• The signal amplitude obtained at each position in the raster pattern is assembled to form an image.
Many Applications:Most widely employed microscopy technique other then optical microscopy
Surface morphology (SE, BSE, FSE)Composition analysis (X-EDS, WDS)Crystallography (electron diffraction and

Secondary and Backscattered Electrons
Backscattered electrons are primary beam electrons scattered back out of the sample.
Secondary electrons are low energy electrons ejected from the specimen atoms by the energetic primary beam

Simulations are very useful for testing if a measurement is possible or interpreting results
• Determine effective lateral or depth resolution for a particular signal in a defined sample
• Simulate X-ray generation / X-ray spectra in a defined sample
• Simulate image contrast

Sequential Image Acquisition in SEM
• The scan of the electron beam and the screen raster are synchronized with intensity proportional to the collected signal
• Magnification is given by the ratio of the length of the line on display device to length scanned on the real sample

• Usually operate with beam voltages of a few hundred volts up to 30 kV typically
• Vacuum as low as <10-8 Pa in the gun area via differential pumping depending on type of electron source
• Special differentially pumped environmental or variable pressure systems for operation up to 20 Torr in specimen chamber are available for samples not compatible with high vacuum (wet, for example) and imaging uncoated non-conductive samples

Major Electron Beam Parameters
From Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-RayMicroanalysis, Joseph I. Goldstein et al. Plenum Press
Four electron beam parameters define the probe which determine resolution, contrast, and depth of focus of SEM images:
• Probe diameter – dp• Probe current – Ip• Probe convergence angle – αp• Accelerating Voltage – Vo
These interdependent parameters must be balanced by the operator to optimize the probe conditions depending on needs:
• Resolution• Depth of Focus• Image Quality (S/N ratio)• Analytical Performance
Electron optical brightness, β, is a constant throughout the column, thus is a very important electron source parameter
14
Origin of Depth of Focus
Adapted from Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-RayMicroanalysis, Joseph I. Goldstein et al. Plenum Press
Quantifying Depth of Focus
For an observer it is taken that image defocus becomes detectable when two image elements fully overlap, where an image element is given by the resolving power of the human eye (~0.1mm).
The depth of focus can then be described geometrically by:
D ~ 0.2 mm / αM
Distance above and below plane of focus that beam becomes broadened to a noticeable size “blurring” in the image
15
Objective Aperture
Function of Condenser Lens
• Ray diagram for lens weakly excited
• Longer focal length, Small α1, Larger d1
• More beam accepted into objective aperture
• Higher probe current at specimen
• Larger focal spot at specimen
• Lower resolution
• Higher Signal Levels
• Ray diagram for lens strongly excited
• Short focal length, Small α1, Smaller d1
• Less beam accepted into objective aperture
• Lower probe current at specimen
• Smaller focal spot at specimen
• Higher Resolution• Lower Signal Levels
Adapted from Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-RayMicroanalysis, Joseph I. Goldstein et al. Plenum Press
De-magnify the beam obtained from the source to enable a small spot to be obtained on the sample. Multiple lenses are more typically used in the condenser lens system. 1 1 1

Objective Lens / Working Distance
• Focus the electron beam on the specimen with minimal lens aberrations
• Short Focal Lengths(W1) –> smaller d2, larger α2 -> better resolution
• Longer Focal Lengths(W2)–> larger d2, smaller α2 ->
better depth of field
• Smaller Apertures–> smaller d2, smaller α2 ->
better resolution & betterdepth of focus
• Correction coils are used to correct asymmetries in lens(correct astigmatism)

Lens Aberrations / AstigmatismLens Aberrations – Astigmatism
Adapted from Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-RayMicroanalysis, Joseph I. Goldstein et al. Plenum Press
Astigmatism is caused by imperfections in the lens or other interference.It can be corrected using additional elements called stigmators contained inside the objective lens

Magnetostaticquadrupole lens is basis of a stigmator
19
Secondary Electron Detector / Imaging
• Faraday Cage (collector) is usually biased a few hundred volts positive (for collection efficiency)
• Scintillator is biased +10kV to accelerate electrons to sufficient energy to efficiently excite scintillating material
• Amplified output level is directly used to set brightness (offset) and contrast (gain) in corresponding pixel in image
Contrast from predominately angular dependence of secondary electron yield and edge effects.

22
Analogy to Oblique and Diffuse Optical Illumination
• Secondary electron yield is strongly dependent on local angle of incidence with beam
• Backscattered electrons are also directly and indirectly detected (image is not pure SE)
• Together this, along with the high depth of focus of the SEM, gives the familiar SEM images with a good perceptive sense of surface topography

Variable Pressure (VP / LV / Environmental) SEM• A different and simpler solution to specimen charging of un-coated non-
conductive samples is to introduce a gas (air, etc.) into the specimen chamber.
• The high energy electrons ionize the gas, thus positive ions are available to dynamically neutralize any charge on the sample.
• Available in both Schottky and Thermionic (Tungsten) instruments

• Energy-Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) – solid state detector simultaneously measures all energies of X-ray photons
• Wavelength Dispersive Spectroscopy (WDS) – sequentially measures intensity vs X-ray wavelength (energy). Superior energy resolution and detection limits (P/B ratio).
• Electron Backscattered Diffraction (EBSD) – acquires electron diffraction information from surface of highly tilted bulk sample with lateral resolution of 10’s of nm
• Cathodoluminesence (CL) – optical emission spectrometer and imaging system for 300-1,700nm. Liquid He cooled stage module.

Characteristic X-ray Generation
• A scattering event kicks out an electron from K,L,M, or N shell of atom in specimen
• An electron from an outer shell falls to fill in the vacancy
• Energy difference results in release of an X-ray of characteristic energy/wavelength or an Auger electron

Mechanism of X-ray Energy Determination
• X-ray loses energy through inelastic scattering events creating electron / hole pairs
• High voltage bias keeps generated pairs from re-combining
• Charge sensitive amplifier “counts”pairs generated by X-ray
• Spectrometer calibration effectively multiplies by energy/pair (3.8 eV) to determine X-ray energy

EDS Spectral Resolution and Count Rates
Pulse processing time constants are used to adjust available count rate versus spectral peak resolution
• Long time constants are best for single acquisition analysis for best energy resolution.
• Short time constants are best for fast acquisition of X-ray elemental maps (elemental distribution images) or line-scans (intensity or concentration profiles).
• Compromise is often needed.
35
X-ray EDS Microanalysis in the SEM
• Fast Parallel Detection• Qualitative elemental
analysis– From beryllium up on
periodic table– Sensitivities to <0.1 wt.%
depending on matrix and composition
• Quantitative analysis– Possible, has many
requirements / limitations• Digital elemental
distribution imaging and line-scans, full spectrum imaging
• Analysis of small volumes, from order of μm3 to << 1 μm3 depending on accelerating voltage, element analyzed, and matrix

Limit of Lateral Resolution for EBSD
5 μm step size = 0.01 μm Deformed Copper
Literature generally reports a lateral resolution limit (x-direction) of 5 – 50nm. Resolution in the y-direction is somewhat less due to high tilt of sample.
Actual resolution obtained depends on beam voltage, probe size, sample material (Z), specimen preparation, etc.

Ion Microscopy: Ions and Electrons
The gallium ion beam hits the specimen thereby releasing secondary electrons, secondary ions and neutral particles (e.g. milling).
The detector collects secondary electrons or ions to form an image.
For deposition and enhanced etching: gases can be injected to the system.
