Abstract

Methods for testing or adjusting a charged-particle detector are provided. A diagnostic and/or adjustment method for a charged-particle detector of an instrument includes providing, from a photon source, photons incident on the charged-particle detector. Moreover, the method includes detecting a response by the charged-particle detector to the photons incident thereon. Related detection systems are also provided.
