Fabrication and characterization of p-type silicon field-emitter arrays for lithography

p-doped silicon field emitters were studied experimentally to assess their usefulness in multibeam electron lithography. Both individual emitters and emitter arrays were fabricated from single crystal Si wafers with several doping levels. Current-voltage curves were measured for different temperatures and illumination conditions. The typical plateaus in the I-V curves and the sensitivity to light known from the literature were reproduced. Stability measurements showed a very stable total emission current even while the angular emission distribution fluctuated strongly, giving unstable currents in apertured beams. Measured light response times varied between 34 ns and 20 μs, depending on experimental conditions. It was found that in the plateau of the I-V curve, the energy of the electrons shifts over up to 100 eV when changing the extraction voltage over a few kilovolts. In operation, when the current is stable, the energy shift is rather unstable. The experimental results are discussed within a model of ...
