Annealing experiments on albite powders, thin sections, and TEM specimens have been performed utilizing an optical microscope heating stage. Sample orientations were determined by optical microscope and XRD, and then confirmed by TEM diffraction patterns. Partial melting of samples occurred at $1030^{\circ}C$-l2 hr for powder, but at $1060^{\circ}C$-12 hr for TEM specimen. It is difficult to get TEM images of albite microstructures above this temperature due to thickening and the amorphous phase of the melted part. Correlative studies between optical microscopy and TEM indicated that the $1050^{\circ}C$-12 hr annealing in ambient condition was most adequate to observe tweed microstructures in albite through TEM. In situ TEM heating experiments for direct observation of tweed microstructures in albite may require annealing at slightly higher temperatures than $1050^{\circ}C$ considering the high vacuum condition inside TEM.

We have fabricated electron-optical lens for micro E-beam system that can overcome the limitation of current E-beam lithography. Our electron-optical lens consists of multiple silicon electrodes which were fabricated by micromachining technology and assembled by anodic bonding. The assembled system was installed in UHV chamber to observe the emission characteristics of focused electrons by the electro-optical lens. We used STM(Scanning Tunneling Microscope) tip for electron source. By performing lithography with the focused electrons with PMMA(poly-methylmethacrylate) as E-beam resist. We could draw 0.13${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ nano-scale lines.

The present study covers the design and analysis of a thermionic scanning electron microscope (SEM) column. The SEM column contains an electron optical system in which electrons are emitted and moved to form a focused beam, and this generates secondary electrons from the specimen surfaces, eventually making an image. The electron optical system mainly consists of a thermionic electron gun as the beam source, the lens system, the electron control unit, and the vacuum unit. In the design process, the dimension and capacity of the SEM components need to be optimally determined with the aid of finite element analyses. Considering the geometry of the filament, a three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis is utilized. Through the analysis, the beam emission characteristics and relevant trajectories are predicted from which a systematic design of the electron optical system is enabled. The validity of the proposed 3D analysis is also discussed by comparing the directional beam spot radius. As a result, a prototype of a thermionic SEM is successfully developed with a relatively short time and low investment costs, which proves the adoptability of the proposed 3D analysis.

Optical resonances of metallic or dielectric nanoantennas enable to effectively convert free-propagating electromagnetic waves to localized electromagnetic fields and vice versa. Plasmonic resonances of metal nanoantennas extremely modify the local density of optical states beyond the optical diffraction limit and thus facilitate highly-efficient light-emitting, nonlinear signal conversion, photovoltaics, and optical trapping. The leaky-mode resonances, or termed Mie resonances, allow dielectric nanoantennas to have a compact size even less than the wavelength scale. The dielectric nanoantennas exhibiting low optical losses and supporting both electric and magnetic resonances provide an alternative to their metallic counterparts. To extend the utility of metal and dielectric nanoantennas in further applications, e.g. metasurfaces and metamaterials, it is required to understand and engineer their scattering characteristics. At first, we characterize resonant plasmonic antenna radiations of a single-crystalline Ag nanowire over a wide spectral range from visible to near infrared regions. Dark-field optical microscope and direct far-field scanning measurements successfully identify the FP resonances and mode matching conditions of the antenna radiation, and reveal the mutual relation between the SPP dispersion and the far-field antenna radiation. Secondly, we perform a systematical study on resonant scattering properties of high-refractive-index dielectric nanoantennas. In this research, we examined Si nanoblock and electron-beam induced deposition (EBID) carbonaceous nanorod structures. Scattering spectra of the transverse-electric (TE) and transverse-magnetic (TM) leaky-mode resonances are measured by dark-field microscope spectroscopy. The leaky-mode resonances result a large scattering cross section approaching the theoretical single-channel scattering limit, and their wide tuning ranges enable vivid structural color generation over the full visible spectrum range from blue to green, yellow, and red. In particular, the lowest-order TM01 mode overcomes the diffraction limit. The finite-difference time-domain method and modal dispersion model successfully reproduce the experimental results.
