Abstract
New results for dimensional measurements of nanostructures obtained using the method of defocusing of the SEM electron probe are presented. The method is extended to nanostructures representing the protrusions of the trapezoidal form with the small size of the top base and the features (protrusions and trenches) with nearly vertical sidewalls. It is also shown that the method can be applied for measurements of geometric parameters of features located on resist masks as well as of individual nanoparticles.
