The primary beam electrons of several keV are decelerated to nearly zero energy of landing on the specimen negatively biased to high potential. Reflected electrons are collected on a grounded detector situated above the sample but the same can be done below the sample of a fair transparency for electrons. High collection efficiency and high amplification of both detectors is secured thanks to the cathode lens field. We use a scintillation detector for the reflected mode and a semiconductor structure for the transmitted electron (TE) mode. In this arrangement resolution of few nm is obtainable across the full energy range.
