HAADF Detectors

To form Z-contrast images, the STEM objective aperture must be inserted to cut out high-angle electron rays, and an annular detector must be inserted after the projector lens system. The schematics in Figure 4530 shows the electron optical column in a modern analytical electron microscope operated in STEM mode, indicating the projector lens controlling detector collection angle.
