Abstract

A method of autotuning an electron microscope by producing a series of images of the object to be examined, using a defined tilt of the electron beam in a different direction for each respective image. The images are thereby displaced relative to one another. Each image is then decomposed into a linear and a non-linear component thereof, and the linear image components are separated by Fourier filtering. The relative displacements of a number of the linear image components relative to each other are measured, and the measured displacement values are combined to derive autotuning parameters for the electron microscope.
