Apparatuses and processes for generating data for three-dimensional reconstruction are disclosed herein. An example method at least includes exposing a subsequent surface of a sample, acquiring an image of the subsequent surface, comparing the image of the subsequent surface to an image of a reference surface, based on the comparison exceeding a threshold, acquiring a compositional or crystalline map of the subsequent surface, and based on the comparison not exceeding the threshold, exposing a next surface.

Data acquisition and processing techniques for three-dimensional reconstruction

The disclosure relates to a method of aligning a charged particle beam apparatus, comprising the steps of providing a charged particle beam apparatus in a first alignment state; using an alignment algorithm, by a processing unit, for effecting an alignment transition from said first alignment state towards a second alignment state of said charged particle beam apparatus; and providing data related to said alignment transition to a modification algorithm for modifying said alignment algorithm in order to effect a modified alignment transition.

Method of aligning a charged particle beam apparatus

The invention relates to a method of, and apparatus for, examining a sample using a charged particle beam apparatus. The method as defined herein comprises the step of detecting, using a first detector, emissions of a first type from the sample in response to the charged particle beam illuminating the sample. The method further comprises the step of acquiring spectral information on emissions of a second type from the sample in response to the charged particle beam illuminating the sample. As defined herein, said step of acquiring spectral information comprises the steps of providing a spectral information prediction algorithm and using said algorithm for predicting said spectral information based on detected emissions of the first type as an input parameter of said algorithm. With this it is possible to gather EDS data using only a BSE detector.

Method of examining a sample using a charged particle beam apparatus

Method and system are disclosed for determining sample composition from spectral data acquired by a charged particle microscopy system. Chemical elements in a sample are identified by processing the spectral data with a trained neural network (NN). If the identified chemical elements not matching with a known elemental composition of the sample, the trained NN is retrained with the spectral data and the known elemental composition of the sample. The retrained NN can then be used to identify chemical elements within other samples.
