Abstract
High brightness ion beams are used in applications such as focused ion beam
systems, the preferred tool to mill and deposit material on nanometer scale. The smallest
achievable spot size of focused ion beam technology is currently limited by chromatic
aberrations in the lens column due to the energy spread of the industry standard liquid
metal ions source (LMIS).
