Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (XTEM) is an imaging technique particularly suited to the study of layered structures. For integrated electronic devices it has become a common practice to use XTEM to assess the shape and crystallinity of component layers as well as defect structures
The ideal ion-milled transmission electron microscope (TEM) sample would contain large, thin areas in selected regions, minimal top and bottom surface amorphization, and minimal preferential etching of adjacent materials. This desire has led to studies of these effects and improvements in designs an
