ABSTRACT:
A massively parallel electron beam array for controllably imaging a target includes a multiplicity of emitter cathodes, each incorporating one or more micron-sized emitter tips. Each tip is controlled by a control electrode to produce an electron stream, and its deflection is controlled by a multielement deflection electrode to permit scanning of a corresponding target region.
