Abstract
A transmission electron microscopy system has an illumination system and an objective lens system. A first projection system images the diffraction plane of the objective lens system into a first intermediate diffraction plane. A second projection system images the first intermediate diffraction plane into a second intermediate diffraction plane. A first aperture located in the first intermediate diffraction plane has a central opening of a first radius. A bright field detector located in the second intermediate diffraction plane has a detection surface defined by an inner edge of a second radius. The first radius and the second radius define a maximum angle and a minimum angle, respectively, relative to the optical axis of directions of bright field electrons traversing the sample plane and detectable by the bright field detector.
