Abstract

635,989. Measures of length. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd. Nov. 9, 1946, No. 33344. Convention date, Nov. 10, 1945. [Class 106 (ii)] [Also in Group XL (a)] An electron optical instrument has an evacuated envelope for producing a beam of electrons, means for supporting a specimen to be examined in the path of the beam, a reference point located on the envelope and means for measuring the distance between the reference point and the point of incidence of the beam on the specimen comprising a scale associated with the reference point, optical means for observing the point of incidence and an indicator movable over the scale and mechanically connected with the optical means. In the construction shown in Figs. 1 and 2 the specimen is supported within the tube on a member 7 and its position is adjusted through three perpendicular directions and two axes of rotation by a manipulator as described in Specification 618,657, [Group XL (c)]. The electron beam from the gun 2 after reflection from or refraction through the specimen forms a diffraction pattern on the fluorescent screen 9, a permanent record being obtained by lowering a photographic plate 10 from a magazine 11 into the paths of the beam. A removable sliding frame 15 is attached by hangers 14 to a tubular scale bearing rod 13 fixed to the upper side of the specimen chamber 6 parallel to the axis of the tube. A telescope 16 for observing the point of impact of the electron beam on the specimen, which may be coated with fluorescent material, is supported on the frame 15 by a rod 17 having a support 18 bearing upon a plate 19 fixed to the specimen chamber 6. Angular adjustment of the frame 15 and telescope. 16 is effected at 20 and 21 respectively. The position of the frame 15, relative to the scale 22 on the rod 13 is observed by a sighting vane 24 of circular spring material located in an aperture 23 in the frame 15.
