Scanning electron microscope optics and spectrometers /

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 ele...
