Abstract

A transmission electron microscope comprises an objective lens and a condenser lens which are so arranged that excitation of the condenser lens can be varied in association with variation in excitation of the objective lens. A cross-over point which is produced by the condenser lens of the last stage in the non-excited state of the objective lens is caused to coincide with a preselected position on the optical axis of the microscope, which position is determined in accordance with magnitude of excitation of the objective lens. The position of a convergence point of the electron beam produced downstream of a specimen to be observed is maintained substantially constant independently from variations in excitation of the objective lens. The direction in which the electron beam impinges on specimen at a point to be observed is maintained substantially constant independently from variation in excitation of the objective lens. An image of improved quality is obtained without the field of view being narrowed, while observation can be made with constant magnification independently from different focus states. Aberrations are significantly decreased.
