IPC: H01J37/305
Filed: 2004-09-15
Abstract: Apparatus and method capable of preparing good samples (6) adapted for observations by electron microscopy are offered. Each sample (6) is ion-etched. During this process, the sample stage (4) is tilted reciprocably left and right about a tilting axis (k). The sample (6) is ion-etched together with a shielding material (12). The sample (6) may contain a substance (M) that is not easily etched by the ion beam (I B ). In the past, unetched portions have been produced due to such a substance (M) that blocks the ion beam (I B ). In the present invention, such unetched portions are not produced in spite of the presence of the substance (M). The substance (M) can be separated from the sample (6). The ion beam (I B ) is directed at the sample (6) with the boundary defined by an end surface (12a) of the shielding material (12). Portions of the sample (6) at a processing position and its vicinities are etched by the beam. A desired cross section (S) of the sample (6) is obtained and will be observed by the operator with a scanning electron microscope or other instrument.

Abstract: An ink cartridge 111 holding a recording material used for printing therein has a sensor substitute module 170 to simulate operations of a cartridge having a built-in sensor. As a control circuit 222 of a printer 200 gives a sensor access instruction to the ink cartridge 111, the sensor substitute module 170 generates a specific signal and outputs the specific signal via an output module 178. The specified signal is equivalent to a signal that represents a sufficient level of remaining ink and is expected to be output from the built-in sensor of the cartridge. The ink cartridge 111 is thus applicable to both a printer designed for the use of a cartridge with a built-in sensor and a printer designed for the use of a cartridge without a built-in sensor. Namely the cartridge of the invention is compatible with the cartridge having the built-in sensor.
