First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for imaging an object, the system comprises:
- electron optics that is configured to scan a first area of the object with at least one electron beam;
wherein the electron optics comprises a first electrode; and
light optics that is configured to illuminate at least one target of (a) the first electrode and (b) the object, thereby causing an emission of electrons between the first electrode and the object.

electron optics that is configured to scan a first area of the object with at least one electron beam;
wherein the electron optics comprises a first electrode; andlight optics that is configured to illuminate, with at least one light beam, (a) the first electrode, and (b) the first area, thereby causing (i) an emission of electrons from the first electrode towards the first area when the first area is positive in relation to the first electrode; and (ii) an emission of electrons from the first area towards the first electrode when the first area is negative in relation to the first electrode. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30)
