The present invention discloses an ion beam lithography method based on an ion beam lithography system. The ion beam lithography system includes a roll-roll printer placed in a vacuum, and a medium-high-energy wide-range ion source, a medium-low-energy wide-range ion source and a low-energy ion source installed on the roll-roll printer. The ion beam lithography method includes: first coating a polyimide (PI) substrate with a dry film, etching the dry film according to a preset circuit pattern, then using the ion beam lithography system to deposit a wide-energy-range metal ion on the circuit pattern to form a film substrate, and finally stripping the dry film off the film substrate to obtain a printed circuit board (PCB).

A collimated electron beam is illuminated to a grounded metal mask such that patterns on the mask can be transferred to a substrate identically. In a preferred embodiment, a linear electron source can be provided for enhancing lithographic throughput. The metal mask is adjacent to the substrate, but does not contact with substrate.

Provided is a focused ion beam processing apparatus including: an ion source; a sample stage a condenser lens; an aperture having a slit in a straight line shape; a projection lens and the sample stage, wherein, in a transfer mode, by Köhler illumination, with an applied voltage of the condenser lens when a focused ion beam is focused on a main surface of the projection lens scaled to be 100, the applied voltage is set to be less than 100 and greater than or equal to 80; a position of the aperture is set such that the focused ion beam is masked by the aperture with the one side of the aperture at a distance greater than 0 μm and equal to or less than 500 μm from a center of the focused ion beam; and the shape of the slit is transferred onto the sample.
