Abstract

The mechanisms of the generation of the fifth order aberrations in a sextupole corrected electron optical system are carefully analyzed, and a new principle is presented to compensate the rotationally symmetric part of the fifth order aberration. A numerical simulation shows that the probe radius can be reduced from 0.8 Å to about 0.4 Å for 200-keV electrons by using an additional round lens.
