A deflector for electron-beam deflection in EMs has been applied to align, tilt, shift, scan the electron beam, and so on. The deflector, usually including a pair of deflection coils, is called the double-deflection system.
Figure 4225a shows an example of SEM systems. In all EMs (electron microscopes), electron-beam deflecting/scanning coils are controlled by electron-beam deflecting/scanning coil control systems. For instance, the electron beam is scanned on the specimen by the electron-beam deflecting/scanning coil control system.
