Abstract: A dynamic correction arrangement for an electron beam projection/deflection system provides high order correction values for deflection in accordance with a correction equation. Particularly as applied to high accuracy telecentric deflection, the coefficients of terms of the correction equation may be determined by calibration for a small number of test points. Correction values may be stored in a look-up table or computed in real time by using a math co-processor in a processing pipeline. The correction provided corrects landing angle errors through the third order in telecentric projection/deflection systems such as systems utilizing variable axis immersion lenses.
