Patterns Processing
Once a pattern shape has been drawn, it can be modified (see Shapes editing above).
Importing / Exporting Patterns
User created patterns may be imported or exported (saved) via
the
File
menu /
Import
or
Export
/
Patterns
item. The saved file
(.ptf) contains all parameters found at the Patterning property
editor (Basic / Advanced) for all patterns drawn in the active
display. Six (for each beam) toolbar
Pattern Presets
(labeled p#)
can be individually assigned to any of these .ptf file.
Right-clicking on the selected button calls up the menu:
•
Apply
item – selects appropriate button (highlighted with an
orange background) and starts the patterning with the preset
parameters (the same as clicking on the button directly)
•
Edit
item – opens the
Assign Pattern File
(.ptf) window to assign
desired parameter file to a selected button
The toolbar Pattern Presets assignment to the particular .ptf file
can be saved or loaded by the
File
menu /
Export
or
Import
/
System Parameters
item.
Property tab Module
A certain pattern can be selected from the list box with many
associated parameters which can be set via the
Property
module:
•
Application
– clicking on the value slot enables a down arrow
bringing a drop down list of applications. Choosing the
required one sets the subsequent properties.
•
X / Y / Z size
– dimensions of the pattern
•
Scan Direction
– scan movement direction (Bottom to Top; Top
to Bottom)
•
Dwell Time
– a time the beam spends on a single pixel per pass
(rounded to a multiple of 25 ns).
•
Beam
– the beam used for patterning
•
Time
– required to process this pattern
•
Position X / Y
of the pattern relative to the origin (the display
center)
•
Rotation
of the patterns (the positive direction is clockwise)
•
Gas Type
– the gas to be used to process the pattern (or None if
no gas is to be used). This determines the pattern color
onscreen.
•
GasDutyCycle
–
•
GasNeedlePosition
–
•
OverlapX / Y –
sets the beam diameter overlap. The value of
the overlap can be positive or negative depending on a
particular application. The overlap parameter influences the
Area Calculation and the Dose.
•
PitchX / Y –
sets the pitch between two spots
•
Area Calculation –
defines how the patterning area will be calculated in order to get the most accurate value of
the
Dose
. This value is related with the OverlapX/Y. The Pattern (default) / Array are set for positive / negative
overlaps.
•
Dose –
•
Volume per Dose
– the volume of material that is removed per charge
•
Saturation Sputter Rate
– the maximum linear sputter rate for a given gas. For Gas = None this is 0 (actually not
used).
•
Refresh Time
– the minimum loop time that must at least elapse before the next pass, so that the adsorbed gas
can be refreshed
•
Loop Time
– the time required for a single pass (read only)
•
Area
– the surface area of the pattern (read only)
