Abstract

Electron-optical device having two elongate emitting regions arranged symmetrically with respect to a longitudinal axis for producing two electron beams having an elongate cross-section. By means of electron grids, the two beams are focused at the same point of an electron target arranged transversely to the longitudinal axis and having a short central axis and a long central axis. The elongate emitting regions have their smallest cross-section parallel to the scanning direction of a device, cooperating with the electron-optical device, for scanning a target arranged transversely to the longitudinal axis.
