Abstract
A scanning electron microscope is provided with a channel cylinder between a sample and an electron source. The channel cylinder generates a deceleration electrical field to decelerate an electron beam emitted from the electron source. The channel cylinder has a portion having an electron source side and sample side. A detector is provided on the electron source side and sample channel cylinder portion. The detector detects the secondary signal emitted from the sample, so that a scan image is obtained with a high spatial resolution.
