Abstract

See full text

The invention provides apparatus and methods for investigating a small selected area of the surface of a specimen. The specimen is irradiated by a primary beam of X-rays or electrons to cause it to emit electrons. These are collected by a novel electron-optical arrangement and are used to create an image of the selected area of the surface using only those electrons emitted with energies lying in a specified range. Apparatus according to the invention has greater sensitivity and spatial resolution than previously known apparatus.
