Combinations of two or more diaphragm lenses of the type
shown in gure 6—19 (&) have been used in electron-microscopes to
produce magnied, inverted, real images of the surface of the la—
ment, permitting detailed studies of the emissive properties of
various cathodes.

The focussing action is controlled by the

The electron z‘elescope consists of a photoelectric surface upon

The number of electr0ns ejected from the various parts of this
surface is proportional to the intensity of the image. It is to be
