Abstract

A charged particle analyzer comprises a spherical grid, a spherical electrode concentric with each other, an emission portion for emitting charged particles, a screen plate having an exit opening, a plurality of second spherical grids forming a high pass filter for the charged particles, a detector for detecting the charged particles, and an obstacle ring being in parallel with an equatorial plane normal to a line connecting the emission portion and the center of the exit opening and being within the spherical electrode.
