Definitions
- the present invention relatesftoY arrangements for setting up magnetic elds such as are introduced in the path of a composite electron beam in an electro-optical image transmitting or receiving device to produce an effect on the electron beam analogous to that of an optical lens on light rays.
- Such arrangements are said to constitute magnetic electron lenses in respect of the beams on which they act.
- Magnetic electron lenses are usually produced by means of solenoid coils which may be provided with suitable magnetic shields and it has also been proposed, to set up magnetic electron lenses using an annular permanent magnet or a system of permanent magnets. In such arrangements diiiculty is experienced in producing a magnetic field which will act on an electron beam to focus the beam to produce an electron image Without spiral and spherical distortion.
- the object of the invention is to reduce the distortion set up by a magnetic electron lens and to provide a method of correcting a magnetic lens.
- a magnetic electron lens is corrected by applying in the vicinity of the lens field auxiliary means comprising a member or members of such form and magnetic permeability that the lens eld is only slightly weakened by the presence of said member or members whilst the eld is wholly or partially corrected in the desired manner.
- an arrangement comprising principal means adapted to produce a magnetic field having rotational symmetry and auxiliary means adapted to co-operate with said principal means and disposed coaxially therewith in such manner as to produce a longitudinal extension of the region in which, in the absence of said auxiliary means, the lines of force are substantially parallel to each other, and to cause the radial distribution of lines of force in said longitudinally extended region to become uniform or nearly uniform, said auxiliary means being so formed that its weakening effect on said field is only slight.
- the auxiliary means by which the magnetic iield is corrected iny accordance with the invention, can comprise an annular 55 member of magnetic permeability greater than unity but preferably not having a high permeability arranged within the magnet or solenoid, said member being thickest in the neighbourhood of the medial plane perpendicular to the axis of the magnetic eld and tapering on either side of that plane in such a manner that the lines of force within the space girdled by the member are caused to become substantially parallel and substantially uniformly spaced, so that the lens field is substantially uniform in respect4 of direction and strength.
- the auxiliary means for correcting the field can be a thin cylinder of magnetic material, of a diameter slightly less than the internal diameter of the magnet or coil and extending on either side thereof.
- Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of one form of annular permanent magnet which may be used in setting up a magnetic iield to constitute an electron lens,
- Figure 2 is a cross sectional view of an electron lens including the field producing magnet of Figure 1 and auxiliary means for correcting the lens iield in accordance with the invention; and to the drawing Figure 3 is a diagrammatic representation in section a further arrangement according to the invention.
- the annular magnet M shown in Figure l of the drawing has inturned flanges N and S respectively, and is magnetised in such a way that, for example, the flange N is of north polarity and the ilange S is of south polarity.
- the annular magnet M' is normally mounted about a region of an electron discharge device through which an electron beam to be acted on by the lens eld passes, for example the magnet may surround the neck of an electron discharge device as indicated at T in Figure l and in Figure 2 of the aforesaid drawing, electrons passing down the neck T, axially thereof, from a suitable source.
- Typical lines of force in the field produced by the magnet M within and in the neighbourhood of the neck T are shown at F extending between the flanges N and S of the magnet. It will be seen that these lines of force are substantially parallel to each other only in a shallow region bounded :by planes represented by the dotted lines R. and that even within this region the lines of force are by no means equally spaced indicating that even here the iield is not homogeneous.
- This variation of the field strength and also the fact that the direction of the i'leld varies from one point to another transversely of the electron discharge path introduces undesirable distortion when the arrangement is used for focussing electrons to produce an electron image, this distortion being of both spherical and spiral type.
- annular correcting member A of material having a magnetic permeability greater than unity, the annulus A being thin at its edges and becoming gradually thicker towards the centre, the degree of taper preferably increasing away from the edge so that the cross-sectionV of the member on each side of the central plane may resemble that of a hollow-ground razor.
- annulus of this form will cause the ⁇ lines of force passing through the region which it encloses to be drawn outwards slightly, the effect being most marked in the region of the central plane, and provided that the form and permeability of the annulus are properly selected, many lines 4of force in the region girdled by the member A can be caused to extend parallel to each other. This region will be seen to be much longer than the region between the planes R-of Figure l. Moreover, those lines F passing through the space enclosed by the annulus A are much more evenly spaced so that the field within the annulus has become substantially homogeneous. Sub-- stantial correction of the lens eld can thus be produced by the use of a correcting member such as A.
- the form ofthe correcting member such as A will, of course depend on the form of the region in which the field is to be corrected, and instead of a single correcting member, a plurality of correcting members can be arranged within the principal iield producing means.
- the magnetic lens iield desired need not be one of parallel lines of force as described, and the invention can be applied to eiiect any desired modication ofv an existing magnetic lens iield.
- the correcting member or members used according to the invention can be built up in any suitable manner, for example the annulus A is shown in Figure 2 as being built up of laminations such as L, Whereas the annulus might be formed by winding for example, iron wire, the shape of the annulus being modified, if desired, to suit the method employed in its construction.
- a correcting member or members used in accordance with the invention might also beformed by moulding a mass or masses of magnetic particles suspended in a suitable binder, the mass or masses being similar to any of those used as cores in so-called dust-core transformers. This allows low values of permeability and any desired shape of the correcting member to be obtained so as to eifect/a correction within close limits.
- a further form of the invention is diagrammatically represented in Figure 3 of lthe drawlng.
- the principal means for setting up the axially symmetrical magnetic lens iield is an electromagnetic coil l.
- This is provided with a magnetic shield 2 embracing the coils on all sides except Vthe inside in well known manner.
- the coil has arranged within it a thin cylinder 3 of magnetic material such as Swedish iron, the cylinder 3 being slightly less'in diameter than the internal diameter of the coil and being of length at least equal to and preferably greater than the length of the iron shield arranged around the coil.
- the cylinder 3 can also conveniently be formed by winding iron wire on a suitable former.
- the electromagnetic coil I had a length of 5 cms. and an internal diameter oi 1l cms. was used, and a 'cylindrical correcting member 3 of Swedish iron having a diameter of 10' cms. arranged within the coil, the arrangement being satisfactory with a shield 3 of length 5 cms. but giving better results with shields up to 10 cms. in length.

- the iield variation was only 5% in the case when the shield 3 was provided and that without the shield 3 the held at the point A was 40% in excess of the Iield at the point O. It was found that the effect of the correcting member 3 was to produce a reduction of only about 25% in the eld strength at the centre O of the coil, this reduction being readily compensated for by increasing the magnetising current through the coil l.
- the length of the shield 3 is preferably longer than that of the coil I and its shield 2 so that excessive increase of the ilux away from the axis in other planes perpendicular to vthe axis Ythan the central plane including the radius O-A, is avoided.

The present invention relatesftoY arrangements for setting up magnetic elds such as are introduced in the path of a composite electron beam in an electro-optical image transmitting or receiving device to produce an effect on the electron beam analogous to that of an optical lens on light rays. Such arrangements are said to constitute magnetic electron lenses in respect of the beams on which they act.
Magnetic electron lenses are usually produced by means of solenoid coils which may be provided with suitable magnetic shields and it has also been proposed, to set up magnetic electron lenses using an annular permanent magnet or a system of permanent magnets. In such arrangements diiiculty is experienced in producing a magnetic field which will act on an electron beam to focus the beam to produce an electron image Without spiral and spherical distortion.
The object of the invention is to reduce the distortion set up by a magnetic electron lens and to provide a method of correcting a magnetic lens.
According to the present invention, a magnetic electron lens is corrected by applying in the vicinity of the lens field auxiliary means comprising a member or members of such form and magnetic permeability that the lens eld is only slightly weakened by the presence of said member or members whilst the eld is wholly or partially corrected in the desired manner.
In carrying the invention into practice in connection with what may be termed simple spherical magneticr electron lenses, that is lenses analogous to spherical optical lenses, an arrangement is provided comprising principal means adapted to produce a magnetic field having rotational symmetry and auxiliary means adapted to co-operate with said principal means and disposed coaxially therewith in such manner as to produce a longitudinal extension of the region in which, in the absence of said auxiliary means, the lines of force are substantially parallel to each other, and to cause the radial distribution of lines of force in said longitudinally extended region to become uniform or nearly uniform, said auxiliary means being so formed that its weakening efect on said field is only slight.
In the case where the principal field producing means is an annular magnet or a solenoid, for example, the auxiliary means by which the magnetic iield is corrected, iny accordance with the invention, can comprise an annular 55 member of magnetic permeability greater than unity but preferably not having a high permeability arranged within the magnet or solenoid, said member being thickest in the neighbourhood of the medial plane perpendicular to the axis of the magnetic eld and tapering on either side of that plane in such a manner that the lines of force within the space girdled by the member are caused to become substantially parallel and substantially uniformly spaced, so that the lens field is substantially uniform in respect4 of direction and strength.
Alternatively, in an arrangement according to the present invention, the auxiliary means for correcting the field can be a thin cylinder of magnetic material, of a diameter slightly less than the internal diameter of the magnet or coil and extending on either side thereof.
In order that the nature of the invention may be clearly understood and the invention readily carried into practice, embodiments of the invention will now be described by way of example, reference being made to accompanying drawing in which:
Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of one form of annular permanent magnet which may be used in setting up a magnetic iield to constitute an electron lens,
Figure 2 is a cross sectional view of an electron lens including the field producing magnet of Figure 1 and auxiliary means for correcting the lens iield in accordance with the invention; and to the drawing Figure 3 is a diagrammatic representation in section a further arrangement according to the invention.
The annular magnet M shown in Figure l of the drawing has inturned flanges N and S respectively, and is magnetised in such a way that, for example, the flange N is of north polarity and the ilange S is of south polarity. The annular magnet M' is normally mounted about a region of an electron discharge device through which an electron beam to be acted on by the lens eld passes, for example the magnet may surround the neck of an electron discharge device as indicated at T in Figure l and in Figure 2 of the aforesaid drawing, electrons passing down the neck T, axially thereof, from a suitable source. Typical lines of force in the field produced by the magnet M within and in the neighbourhood of the neck T are shown at F extending between the flanges N and S of the magnet. It will be seen that these lines of force are substantially parallel to each other only in a shallow region bounded :by planes represented by the dotted lines R. and that even within this region the lines of force are by no means equally spaced indicating that even here the iield is not homogeneous. This variation of the field strength and also the fact that the direction of the i'leld varies from one point to another transversely of the electron discharge path introduces undesirable distortion when the arrangement is used for focussing electrons to produce an electron image, this distortion being of both spherical and spiral type.
Now in order to improve the form of the eld produced by the magnet shown in Figure 1, according to the invention, there is arranged within the space enclosed by the magnet M, and preferably outside the neck T, as shown in Figure 2, an annular correcting member A of material having a magnetic permeability greater than unity, the annulus A being thin at its edges and becoming gradually thicker towards the centre, the degree of taper preferably increasing away from the edge so that the cross-sectionV of the member on each side of the central plane may resemble that of a hollow-ground razor. An annulus of this form will cause the `lines of force passing through the region which it encloses to be drawn outwards slightly, the effect being most marked in the region of the central plane, and provided that the form and permeability of the annulus are properly selected, many lines 4of force in the region girdled by the member A can be caused to extend parallel to each other. This region will be seen to be much longer than the region between the planes R-of Figure l. Moreover, those lines F passing through the space enclosed by the annulus A are much more evenly spaced so that the field within the annulus has become substantially homogeneous. Sub-- stantial correction of the lens eld can thus be produced by the use of a correcting member such as A.
The form ofthe correcting member such as A will, of course depend on the form of the region in which the field is to be corrected, and instead of a single correcting member, a plurality of correcting members can be arranged within the principal iield producing means. Moreover, the magnetic lens iield desired need not be one of parallel lines of force as described, and the invention can be applied to eiiect any desired modication ofv an existing magnetic lens iield. i' f The correcting member or members used according to the invention can be built up in any suitable manner, for example the annulus A is shown in Figure 2 as being built up of laminations such as L, Whereas the annulus might be formed by winding for example, iron wire, the shape of the annulus being modified, if desired, to suit the method employed in its construction. A correcting member or members used in accordance with the invention might also beformed by moulding a mass or masses of magnetic particles suspended in a suitable binder, the mass or masses being similar to any of those used as cores in so-called dust-core transformers. This allows low values of permeability and any desired shape of the correcting member to be obtained so as to eifect/a correction within close limits.
While the invention has been described in detail as applied in conjunction with a lens field produced by an annular permanent magnet, a member similar to the annulus A might be provided within a solenoid or in conjunction with a system of permanent magnets or in conjunction with any other lens eld producing arrangement to effect a correction or modincation of the field in a desired manner.
A further form of the invention is diagrammatically represented in Figure 3 of lthe drawlng.
`In this case, the principal means for setting up the axially symmetrical magnetic lens iield is an electromagnetic coil l. This is provided with a magnetic shield 2 embracing the coils on all sides except Vthe inside in well known manner. According to the invention, the coil has arranged within it a thin cylinder 3 of magnetic material such as Swedish iron, the cylinder 3 being slightly less'in diameter than the internal diameter of the coil and being of length at least equal to and preferably greater than the length of the iron shield arranged around the coil. The cylinder 3 can also conveniently be formed by winding iron wire on a suitable former.
Thus, for example, in one practical embodiment the electromagnetic coil I had a length of 5 cms. and an internal diameter oi 1l cms. was used, and a 'cylindrical correcting member 3 of Swedish iron having a diameter of 10' cms. arranged within the coil, the arrangement being satisfactory with a shield 3 of length 5 cms. but giving better results with shields up to 10 cms. in length. With this arrangement conditions were investigated along the radius O-A in the centre plane of the field and it was found that from Ithe point O on the axis to the point A which was 4 cms. distant radially from O, the iield variation was only 5% in the case when the shield 3 was provided and that without the shield 3 the held at the point A was 40% in excess of the Iield at the point O. It was found that the effect of the correcting member 3 was to produce a reduction of only about 25% in the eld strength at the centre O of the coil, this reduction being readily compensated for by increasing the magnetising current through the coil l.
The length of the shield 3 is preferably longer than that of the coil I and its shield 2 so that excessive increase of the ilux away from the axis in other planes perpendicular to vthe axis Ythan the central plane including the radius O-A, is avoided.
Tests have been made using the arrangement described to focus electrons for the production of a picture on a cathode ray screen and for a given magnification of the electron image and after the necessary increase of the current to the extent t of some 20%, over that required in the absence of member 3, a substantial reduction in the distortion in the picture has been obtained by using the correcting member. Moreover, it is found that the provision` of a cylindrical correcting member such as 3` is also effective with unshielded coils or solenoids and with iields set up by annular permanent magnets, the provision of the correcting member being found to effect improvements in the radial distribution of the iield `on the central plane similar to those described in the case of a solenoid, and to produce similar reduction in the amount of spiral distortion produced by the lens. The provision of a rotationally symmetrical field in the manner described can in general be readily carried out in existing equipment as in the usual case electron lenses are arranged about a cylindrical portion of the housing of the electron discharge device in respect of which the lens field is set up.
While the invention has been described in connection with magnetic electron lenses for operating on composite electron beam of relatively large cross-section, it will be understood that, if desired, the method of the invention can be applied to magnetic electron lenses which are used to operate on fasciculated beams such as scanning beams in cathode ray oscillographs.
