Patent
Method and apparatus for inspecting a substrate
TL;DR: In this article, a method and apparatus for inspection and review of defects is disclosed wherein data gathering is improved, where multiple or segmented detectors are used in a particle beam system, and the method is described.
Patent
Maskless reflection electron beam projection lithography
TL;DR: In this article, an incident electron beam is formed and directed to an opaque patterned structure and reflected electrons are directed towards a target substrate to form an image and expose a lithographic pattern.

TL;DR: In this article, an inspection methodology and how it can be applied to the imprint template are described, which enables both a die to die comparison, to find nuisance defects, and also calibration of sensitivity to different types of preprogrammed defects.
Patent
Defect detection using energy spectrometer
TL;DR: In this paper, a multiple-bin detector is configured to detect the emitted electrons, and each bin of the detector detects the emitted electron within a range of energies, and a processing system configured to process signals from the multiple bin detector is also disclosed.
Patent
High-speed electron beam inspection
TL;DR: In this article, an electron beam apparatus for inspection of a semiconductor wafer is described, where substantially an entire area of the wafer surface is scanned without moving the stage.
