In this paper, we present four measurement methods for the two-dimensional mapping of the current density distribution in variable-shaped e-beam writers. All the methods use only the native equipment of the e-beam writer which provides the advantage of relatively easy implementation. The first and second measurement methods are based on the knife-edge technique in which the e-beam is scanned in two directions across a Faraday cup opening and across shaping shutters of the forming system, respectively. In the thirdmethod, a phosphor screen is irradiated by a magnified e-beam spot and the current density distribution is represented by the luminescence image on the screen. The fourth method uses electron sensitive resist which is exposed by the e-beam. The developed resist is observed under a microscope and the current density distribution is judged fromthe resist profile. All the methods are demonstrated in an example, compared, and their spatial resolution and accuracy evaluated.
