Abstract
An electron beam device comprises: a beam emitter for emitting a primary electron beam; an objective electron lens for focusing the primary electron beam onto a specimen, the objective lens defining an optical axis; a beam separator having a first dispersion for separating a signal electron beam from the primary electron beam; and a dispersion compensation element. The dispersion compensation element has a second dispersion, the dispersion compensation element being adapted for adjusting the second dispersion independently of an inclination angle of the primary beam downstream of the dispersion compensation element, such that the second dispersion substantially compensates the first dispersion. The dispersion compensation element is arranged upstream, along the primary electron beam, of the beam separator.
