<p>One embodiment relates to an apparatus for high-resolution electron beam imaging. The apparatus includes an energy filter configured to limit an energy spread of the electrons in the incident electron beam. The energy filter may be formed using a stigmatic Wien filter and a filter aperture. Another embodiment relates to a method of forming an incident electron beam for a high-resolution electron beam apparatus. Another embodiment relates to a stigmatic Wien filter that includes curved conductive electrodes. Another embodiment relates to a stigmatic Wien filter that includes a pair of magnetic yokes and a multipole deflector. Other embodiments, aspects and features are also disclosed.</p> |
