Engineering method for defects and conductivity of the conductive nano-scale structure

摘要

The invention relates to a method for defect and conductivity engineering of an individual part in a conducting nanoscaled structure by generating heat-induced migration, melting, sputtering and/or evaporation of conductive material of the nanoscaled structure by directing a focussed electron beam on this individual part of the structure to be engineered. The invention further relates to the use of a secondary electron microscope having a filter for detecting back scattered electrons for such a method and a respective secondary electron microscope having such a filter for detecting back scattered electrons.
