An electron beam detection apparatus includes a first aperture element including a first set of apertures. The apparatus includes a second aperture element including a second set of apertures. The second set of apertures is arranged in a pattern corresponding with the pattern of the first plurality of apertures. The detection apparatus includes an electron-photon conversion element configured to receive electrons of the electron beam transmitted through the first and second aperture elements. The electron-photon conversion element is configured to generate photons in response to the received electrons. The detection apparatus includes an optical assembly including one or more optical elements. The detection apparatus includes a detector assembly. The optical elements of the optical assembly are configured to direct the generated photons from the electron-photon conversion system to the detector assembly.
