The present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing a particle source comprising: placing a metal wire in vacuum, introducing active gas, adjusting a temperature of the metal wire and applying a positive high voltage V to the metal wire to generate at a side of the head of the metal wire an etching zone in which field induced chemical etching (FICE) is performed; increasing by the FICE a surface electric field at the top of the metal wire head to be greater than a field evaporation electric field of material for the metal wire, so that metal atoms at the top of the metal wire are evaporated off; after the field evaporation is activated by the FICE, causing mutual adjustment between the FICE and the field evaporation, until the head of the metal wire has a shape of combination of a base and a tip on the base; and stopping the FICE and the field evaporation when the head of the metal wire takes a predetermine shape. |
