  • Patent number: 6573501
    Abstract: A holography electron microscope permitting electron holography without limitations on the magnification. An electron biprism is mounted between a system of intermediate lenses and a system of projector lenses. The objective lens and the system of intermediate lenses form a crossover at a given position between intermediate lenses and the electron biprism and, at the same time, focus a magnified image at a certain position between the electron biprism and projector lenses. Since the system of intermediate lenses is made up of three or more stages of lenses, it forms a crossover at a given position and focuses a magnified image at a certain position.

  • Patent number: 6015973
    Abstract: There is disclosed an energy filter having polepieces which form lenses and are mounted at accuracies that can be easily checked. The positions of the lenses can be easily readjusted. The lenses are mounted to a base plate and stacked on top of each other between two polepieces via two spacers. The polepieces form magnetic poles. These lenses are mounted to the base plate with screws so as to form a passage.

  • Patent number: 5067702
    Abstract: An apparatus for successively removing stacked sheets, such as stimulable phosphor sheets used in electron microscopy, from a housing. The stack consists of alternate layers of a first kind and a second kind of sheets. Each sheet of the first kind has a first notch in a first position. Each sheet of the second kind has a second notch in a second position. One edge of the lowermost sheet of the stack is supported on a projection which can be moved along the edge. Thus, the stack is inclined in the housing. The projection is movable from its home position, first and second stop positions aligned with the notches. When the projection is moved to a position registering with the notch on the lowermost sheet, that sheet only is dropped to a position from which it is ejected from the apparatus.

  • Patent number: 4928016
    Abstract: A rack for housing recording media for an electron microscope includes a vertically movable rack for accommodating the recording media and composed of a plurality of shelves, and a unit for pushing out the recording media as well as a unit for entrance and exit of the recording media are provided at a predetermined height position. Two-dimensional sensors or cassettes for photographic films are accommodated within the rack. For photography, the rack is moved up and down to extract the desired two-dimensional sensors or cassettes for photographic films by the recording media pushing unit and the exit unit. After photography, the recording media are returned by the recording media entrance unit to the original position in the rack, so that a single magazine suffices for the receiving magazine and the feed magazine.
