New ink sampling technique takes a bite out of time

July 10, 2007 (Peabody, Mass.) -- JEOL USA has introduced a new high resolution direct write e-beam lithography system to complement its family of spot beam, vector scan systems and mask production tools. The new JBX-5500FS direct write lithography tool writes patterns at a minimum line width of 10nm at 50kV on up to 100mm substrates. The PC-controlled operating platform features a simple graphical user interface (GUI) for pattern design and machine control. Complete line of ...

JEOL USA (Peabody, Mass.) today announced a direct-write e-beam lithography system targeted at research labs and universities. The JBX-5500FS system is capable of 10 nm resolution at 50 kV on silicon pieces or wafers up to 100 mm.

A team of researchers from the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Purdue University and Hysitron Inc. in Minneapolis are using special instrumentation with the JEOL 3010 in situ transmission electron microscope to correlate high-resolution load-displacement measurements with individual video frames, showing how nanoscale volumes of aluminum deform under stress from a diamond "nanoindenter".
