The field-emission electron-gun and vector-scan delineator is a direct wafer writing system using an electron beam for the fabrication of the VLSI patterns down to submicrometer dimensions. This delineator was realized by using a newly developed field-emission electron-gun, as described in Sect.2.2.1c.

Now any one can easily make a delineator, by going to the hardware store and securing a few little screws, as shown in the cut, and then making or securing four little pieces of wood, as shown in the illustration, of about two feet in length.
