Topic: Electrostatic lens


  
  Night Vision Equipment
Daylight Lens Cover - is usually made of soft plastic or rubber with a pinhole that allows a small amount of light to enter the objective lens of a night vision device.
Focal length - is the distance from the optical center of a lens (or, the secondary principal point for a complex lens like a camera lens) to the focal point (sensor) when the lens is focused on an object at infinity.
A 7mm focal length lens is always a 7mm focal length lens and a 300mm focal length lens is always a 300mm focal length lens.

  Electrostatic lens - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An electrostatic lens is a lens that transports electrons emitted from a sample to an electron analyser.
Systems of electrostatic lenses can be designed in the same way as optical lenses, so electrostatic lenses easily magnify or converge the electron trajectories.
There are several types of electrostatic lenses: cylinder lenses, aperture lenses, and quadrupole lenses.

The lens is stronger in a plane perpendicular to the paper than in the plane of the paper, so that a point object O is imaged into two focal lines.
Electrostatic fields are used in modern microscopes to stigmate the lens.
Lens current stabilization takes place in a fashion similar to that for the high voltage except that it is usual to generate the lens current first and to stabilize it afterwards.

 Kratos Instruments: The Magnetic Lens
At long distances lens aberrations are large, and to obtain a reasonable degree of image resolution the input lens has to be apertured down, resulting in poor sensitivity.
The magnetic snorkel lens, unlike conventional magnetic lenses, produces a field which is not confined within the mechanical lens structure.This enables a sample to be supported some distance away from the lens and provides a clear line of sight for excitation sources.
The magnetic lens applied to electron spectrometry is a Kratos invention and is the outcome of years of ground breaking research and development in this field.

Data is collected and the focal properties of the lens are found using similar techniques as used in the experimental work.It is found that the experimental results of the hyperbolic lens support both the analytical study and the software simulation.
It is also found that the experimental results of the hyperbolic lens closely match those of the conventionally designed lens, indicating that the hyperbolic model possesses properties that are general characteristics of all electrostatic lenses.
The results also demonstrate that the hyperbolic lens is not free of spherical aberration, as has been previously posited in the relevant literature, but instead suffers from spherical aberration, as do conventional electrostatic lenses.

That beam is collimated by electromagnetic condensor lenses, focussed by an objective lens, and scanned across the surface of the sample by electromagnetic deflection coils.
The simplifications of the thin lens calculations come from the ability in many cases to consider the two principal planes to be coincident, or located at the same place.
In an SEM, electro-magnetic lens are used almost exclusively for the condensor and objective lenses (some instruments refer to the objective lens as the final condensor lens, but I prefer using the term objective for this lens which is usually of a considerably different design than the condensors).

If I were ever to have the pleasure of presenting a graduate course in electrostatic lens design and its application, this would certainly be a required text.
Heddle devotes most of his effort in developing approaches to deal with axially symmetric lens systems, as these are the most commonly encountered in electrostatic optical systems.
It is clear that Heddle favours the Bessel function expansion method, and he shows that this method has the advantage of speed, solving a test problem in 15 seconds while the 9-point finite difference method requires some 30 minutes to achieve the same accuracy in its solution.

Consists of i) an objective lens which focuses the beam after it passes through the specimen and forms an intermediate image of the specimen and ii) the projector lens(es) which magnifies a portion of the intermediate image to form the final image.
In a magnetic electron lens the focal length is determined by the field strength in the lens gap and by the speed of the electrons (determined by the accelerating voltage).
Since the focal length of the lens is directly proportional to the accelerating voltage, a variation in the velocity of the electrons in the imaging beam affects image quality by eliminating perfect focus (chromatic aberration).

A Theorem on High-Order Geometric Spherical Aberrations for Hutter's Electrostatic Lens
In this paper third-, fifth-, seventh-, and ninth-order geometric spherical aberrations for Hutter's electrostatic lens have been studied analytically and calculated numerically by means of Mathematica.
This theoretical conclusion would be regarded as a complement of Scherzer's theorem on the third-order spherical aberration and may be helpful for estimating the effect of high-order spherical aberrations in electrostatic immersion lenses.

 EPG283: A new Form for the Third—Order Asymptotic Aberration Coefficients of Electrostatic Lenses   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
The third—order asymptotic aberration coefficients of round electrostatic lenses are reformulated in terms of the coordinates formed by the projections of the asymptotic incident and final rays onto the reference plane of the lens.
In this formulation, all aberration coefficients are finite for all lenses, in contrast to the formulation in terms of coordinates projected onto the focal planes of the lenses, where all of the coefficients become infinite in the limit of very weak lenses and for certain strong lenses.
Using these equations and previously calculated potentials and first—order trajectories, we have computed the six aberration coefficients for the accelerating and decelerating two—tube electrostatic lens for voltage ratios from 1.1 to 10000.

 An Analytical Study of First- and Third-Order Chromatic Aberrations for Hutter's Electrostatic Immersion Lenses -- from ...
In this paper electron optical canonical aberration theory and the generalized integration transformation have been applied to Hutter's electrostatic immersion lens whose axial potential distribution has an exponential-arctangent form.
As a result, analytical expressions of first- and third-order chromatic aberrations for such electrostatic immersion lenses have first been derived and numerical computations have been carried out by using a computer algebra language Mathematica.
It is expected that this work may be useful for estimating first- and third-order chromatic aberrations in electrostatic immersion lenses.

A novel electrostatic lens system consisting of several short, closely-spaced elements is described.
If such a lens has n independent voltages it can be used to maintain (n-1) properties of an image, or of more than one image, constant while other properties are varied, within the constraints imposed by the Helmholtz-Lagrange relationship.
A movable three-cylinder lens is considered as an example and the necessary data are presented to enable three different pairs of image properties to be kept constant.
