Abstract
Transmission ion microscope. A bright light ion source generates an ion beam that is focused on a sample by an electrostatic condenser lens means. An objective lens focuses the ion beam transmitted through the sample to form an image. A projector lens enlarges the image and a phosphor screen receives the enlarged image to generate light allowing visualization of the image.
