CHARGED PARTICLE SYSTEM COMPRISING A MANIPULATOR DEVICE FOR MANIPULATION OF ONE OR MORE CHARGED PARTICLE BEAMS.

摘要

A charged particle system such as a multi beam lithography system. A manipulator device manipulates one or more charged particle beams. The manipulator device includes at least one through opening in the plane of the planar substrate for passing at least one charged particle. Each through opening is provided with electrodes arranged in a first set of multiple first electrodes along a first part of a perimeter of the through opening and in a second set of multiple second electrodes along a second part of the perimeter. An electronic control circuit is arranged for providing voltage differences the electrodes in dependence of a position of the first and second electrode along the perimeter of the through opening.
