  • Abstract
    The development and applications of a microprocessor interface to a scanning electron microscope (SEM) for SEM image acquisition and electron-beam writing is described. The design considerations and system-related constraints along with necessary modifications to the SEM are presented. Hardware and software optimization is attempted, and the approach is discussed. Some results of applications are presented
