The ELPHY MultiBeam from Raith sets a new commercial standard for SEM and FIB-SEM nanolithography solutions. It integrates the newest technology for 3D ion beam based nanofabrication and other 3D nanofabrication methods with the superior EBL performance, and helps to unlock the total nanofabrication potential of a FIB-SEM, SEM or HIM system.
The ELPHY MultiBeam includes full multiple method nanopatterning functionality in a single tool for Focused Ion Beam Nanofabrication, Etching and Deposition, Electron Beam Lithography (EBL), Helium Ion Beam Patterning and Gas assisted Focused Electron Beam Induced Processing (FEBIP).
