ABSTRACT:
An improved particle lens has an axis that is shifted to follow the central ray of the beam as it is deflected through the lens creating, in effect, a variable curvilinear optical axis for the lens and introducing aberrations depending on the object size and the distance off the lens symmetry axis. These aberrations are corrected by a set of wire pairs perpendicular to the system axis to add a gradient of the z-component of the magnetic field by which aberrations are generated of the same type but opposite direction as those inherent in the system.
