| 摘要 |
A shutter device for use in an etching apparatus using charged particles, which includes at least one sheet-like electrode having an aperture for passage of the charged particles; and a voltage source for selectively applying to the electrode an electric voltage so as to establish at the electrode an electric potential higher than that of the charged particles; wherein the passage of the charged particles through the aperture of said electrode is prevented when the electric potential which is higher than that of the charged particles is established at the electrode by the voltage application by the voltage source.
