Abstract:
The present invention provides a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM). In the STEM, a specimen is sandwiched between a variable axis objective lens and a variable axis collection lens. The axis of the collection lens varies along with the variation of the objective lens axis in a coordinated manner. The STEM of the invention exhibits technical merits such as large scanning field, high image resolution across the entire scanning field, and high throughput, among others.
