Publication number: 20190057496Abstract: Captured images acquired by a plurality of imaging units are output to a captured image combining unit, which generates a composite image by joining the captured images in accordance with composite setting information generated by a composite setting information generation unit. A specific region information generation unit generates specific region information indicating the specific region corresponding to a specific imaging region in the composite image. In accordance with the specific region information, the captured image combining unit can easily perform an invalidation or emphasizing process, for example, on the image corresponding to the specific imaging region. The specific region information is also associated with the composite image generated by the captured image combining unit, so that reproduction control on the specific region corresponding to the specific imaging region in the composite image can be performed at the time of reproduction or the like of the composite image.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2017Publication date: February 21, 2019Applicant: SONY CORPORATIONInventors: Kouji OGAWA, Mitsuru KATSUMATA, Hirofumi SHIMADA, Yuta MURATA, Takehiko NAKANO

Patent number: 6686590Abstract: There is disclosed a low-vacuum scanning electron microscope wherein a bias voltage is applied to a specimen. A primary electron beam is made to strike the specimen, producing secondary electrons which are accelerated by an electric field producing an electron avalanche effect. Positive ions traveling toward the specimen reach the specimen or specimen holder. Then, the electrons lose their electric charge and return to molecules. In this way, a scanned image corresponding to a secondary electron image can be obtained based on the specimen current.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2002Date of Patent: February 3, 2004Assignees: JEOL Ltd., JEOL Technics Ltd.Inventor: Kouji Ogawa
