Abstract

A method of verifying that a given insulative element conforms with a reference insulative element, comprising the steps of: emitting a primary beam of electrons impinging on the given insulative element, receiving a secondary beam of electrons returned by the given insulative element in response to emission of the primary beam of electrons, and comparing a curve as a function of time of the electrical current of the secondary beam received with a curve as a function of time of a reference electrical current to establish whether or not the given insulative element conforms to a reference insulative element.
