A tapered glass microcapillary processing system for focusing a MeV H+ ion beam
Several recent reports have indicated that a tapered glass capillary tube with a tip size on the order of micrometers has a focusing effect on transmitted ion beams. In relation to our particular area of interest, this could be a simple and cheap way to generate a focused ion beam for ion beam litho...
