    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for determining at least one parameter related to charged particles emitted from a particle emitting sample, e.g. a parameter related to the energies, the start directions, the start positions or the spin of the particles. The method comprises the steps of guiding a beam of charged particles into an entrance of a measurement region by means of a lens system, and detecting positions of the particles indicative of said at least one parameter within the measurement region. Furthermore, the method comprises the steps of deflecting the particle beam at least twice in the same coordinate direction before entrance of the particle beam into the measurement region. Thereby, both the position and the direction of the particle beam at the entrance of the measurement region can be controlled in a way that to some extent eliminates the need for physical manipulation of the sample. This in turn allows the sample to be efficiently cooled such that the energy resolution in energy measurements can be improved.

    摘要: Charged particle energy analysers enabling simultaneous high transmission and energy resolution are described. The analysers have an electrode structure (11) comprising coaxial inner and outer electrodes (14, 15) having inner and outer electrode surfaces (IS, OS) respectively. The inner and outer electrode surfaces are defined, at least in part, by spheroidal surfaces having meridonal planes of symmetry orthogonal to a longitudinal axis of the electrode structure (11). The inner and outer electrode surfaces are generated by rotation, about the longitudinal axis, of arcs of two non-concentric circles having different radii R2 and R1 respectively, R2 being greater than R1. The distance of the outer electrode surface from the longitudinal axis in the respective meridonal plane is R01 and the distance of the inner electrode surface from the longitudinal axis in the respective plane is R02 and R1, R2, R01 and R02 have a defined relationship.

    摘要: At an energy filter ions are deflected at the entrance side through a first electrostatic field between electrodes (3a', 3b'), traverse through a field-free volume (15) and enter through a shielding (11) into a further electrostatic deflection field between electrodes (7a', 3b'). The axes (A.sub.E, A.sub.A) of the beam entrance and exit are aligned and off-set with respect to the rotation axis (A'.sub.Z) of the cylinder forming the outermost electrode (7a').

    摘要: An energy selecting filter comprising a structure of four hemispheres to be transpassed successively by a beam of charged particles to be filtered. The structure is symmetrically with respect to a plane of symmetry in which the energy selecting element, such as slit or a knife-edge is introduced. In a charged particle beam apparatus such as a high resolution electron microscope the energy spread introduced by a source can adjustable be reduced to below for example 0,1 eV without introducing any beam deviation at the cost of only a small lengthening of the apparatus.

    摘要: An electron spectrometer comprising an electron source for providing a beam of electrons having a predetermined energy spectrum, and an electron selector for dispersing in energy the electrons of the beam to produce an elongate selector image, each portion of the length of which includes electrons having a predetermined respective energy. The selector image is focussed on a target to produce an elongate target image including scattered electrons having a range of energies, each portion of the length of the target image resulting from a respective portion of the length of the selector image. An analyzer disperses in energy the scattered electrons of the target image, the analyzer being orientated such that the electrons are dispersed in a direction substantially perpendicular to the length of the target image, whereby the analyzer produces a rectangular image made up of substantially parallel strips, each including electrons of a range of energies but each resulting from the scattering by the target of electrons of a respective energy.

    摘要: A charged particle energy spectrometer, typically an electron spectrometer, comprising an electrostatic dispersive charged particle analyzer, e.g. a substantially hemispherical sector analyzer (1,6), and a detector means comprising a plurality of charged particle detectors (26-28) is described. Fringing fields at the exit of the analyzer are corrected by a fringing field corrector plate (7) containing a plurality of apertures (20, 22, 23) each aligned with one channel of the detector means. Exit beam defining slits (21, 24, 25) in a plate (12) situated in the exit focal plane of the analyzer may optionally be provided. Each aperture (20, 22, 23) is preferably the same size and shape as the single aperture used to achieve optimum correction of the fringing fields in a conventional spectrometer having a single channel detector. One or more position sensitive detectors may be used in place of some or all of the detectors (26-28).

    摘要: An electron spectroscopy apparatus has an analyzer and a retardation lens system. In a first mode of operation, no retardation is applied, and the analyzer scans a low-energy range of the energy spectrum. In a second mode, retardation is applied, and the analyzer scans a high-energy range. The retardation is varied in synchronism with the scanning of the analyzer, so as to maintain a constant retardation factor.
