Aberration correctors. 4.3. The helium ion microscope -- 5. Secondary electron spectrometers. 5.1. Early deflection analyzers. 5.2. Retarding field analyzers. 5.3. Surface fields and signal-to-noise characteristics. 5.4. Deflection/multi-channel analyzers -- 6. Full range deflector spectrometer designs. 6.1. First-order focusing toroidal analyzers. 6.2. A second-order focusing toroidal analyzer design. 6.3. A modified fountain analyzer design -- 7. Full range parallel energy spectrometer designs. 7.1. The time-of-flight spectrometer. 7.2. A Gaussian field magnetic sector. 7.3. A round magnetic beam separator -- 8. Spectroscopic SEM proposals.
Summary: This book contains proposals to redesign the scanning electron microscope so that it is more compatible with other charged particle beam instrumentation and analytical techniques commonly used in surface science research. It emphasizes the concepts underlying spectrometer designs in the scanning electron microscope, and spectrometers are discussed under one common framework so that their relative strengths and weaknesses can be more readily appreciated. This is done, for the most part, through simulations and derivations carried out by the author himself. The book is aimed at scientists, engineers and graduate students whose research area or study in some way involves the scanning electron microscope and/or charged particle spectrometers. It can be used both as an introduction to these subjects and as a guide to more advanced topics about scanning electron microscope redesign.
