Indeed, R

(z) represents the radial height of the pole piece, i.e. the distance between the material of the pole piece and the
optical axis. (z) V' ' is the second derivative of V(z), and V
p
represents the axial potential value at any of the terminals of
the lens optical axis. For a symmetrical magnetic lenses such a value being equivalent to half of the lens excitation (NI).
However, in the case of asymmetrical charged particle lens the values of potential at terminals are not equivalent; thus,
each potential value can be evaluated by using Ampere's circuital law along the axial interval on which the magnetic field
is distributed.
2.2 ELECTRON LENS DEFECTS
The electron lenses suffer from many different types of imperfections through the image formation process. These defects
are different according to the function of the charged particle lens. However, the objective electron lenses suffer from two
main important defects namely; spherical and chromatic aberrations. The spherical aberration is caused by the in-
homogeneity of the lens field affecting the off-axis rays, which reduces the focal length for electron rays passing the outer
zones of the lens. As a result, electrons from a point object crossing the optical axis at different angles is imaged as a disc
with a minimum diameter of

source, variations of accelerating voltage V and the lens current L , resulting in a variation of the focal length, the
diameter of disc confusion can be expressed as[4].

the aberrations of an optical instrument. To evaluating these aberrations, several axial functions must be determined. The
geometrical and chromatic aberration coefficients for any charged particle lens are expressed as a definite integral of the
form [18].

For a certain magnetic field distribution of the lens these coefficients can be evaluated provided the electron beam
trajectory r
(z) and its derivative are known along the lens length. However, trajectory of the electron beam can be
obtained by solving equation (7) numerically using the fourth-order Rang-Kutta method.
3. SIMULINK MODEL FOR THE ORIGINAL TARGET FUNCTION
Figure1 shows a simulink model for determining the axial magnetic scalar potential distribution V(z), the axial magnetic
field of the charged particle lens B
z
(z), and the first derivative of the field B'
z
(z) with aid of equations (1-3). The output
results of the simulink model that the axial potential target function, the axial magnetic field, and the first derivative of
the magnetic field are plotted in figure 2 at a=1mm, V
0
=200A-t, and L=60mm. From figure 2b, it seen that the resulted
field is asymmetrical about the plane z=0.5mm. However, to be the field asymmetrical about the common symmetry plane
(z=0), it can be shifted depending on the position of the inflection point of the field curve as shown in figure 3. The
values of the two main important properties of the field distribution that the maximum flux density value B
max
and the
half width W are 0.3197 Tesla and 2.268mm respectively, where the half width of the left field side equals to 0.8503mm,
while that for the right field side is 1.4177mm. Also, similar steps have been used to manipulate the curve of the
departure of the magnetic field B
'
z
(z) to be asymmetrical distribution about the common symmetry plane. It is worthwhile
to find the correspondence pole piece shape with aid of a simulink model by using equation (4). Thus, figure 4 shows the
reconstructed above part of the pole piece shape that met the asymmetrical field plotted in figure 3. It is noted that the
bore radius of the right pole piece is greater than that of the left side one. This result is agreement with the behavior of the
field distribution plotted in figure 3, where the slowly right field is corresponding to the pole piece of large bore radius via
the deeply decreasing field on the left side.

4. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Obviously, the new suggested target function that represents the distribution of the axial magnetic potential consists of
three optimization parameters namely the potential parameter denoted by V
0
, the length of the lens L=Z
F
-Z
i
, and the more
effective parameter a. In the present work the effect of the latter parameter has been investigated when the other two
parameters are kept constants concerning image field parameters, objective focal properties for zero and infinite
magnification modes, and the reconstructed pole piece shape with aid of block diagram shown in figure5.
With aid of simulink model in figure 1 for determining the distributions of magnetic scalar potential, axial magnetic
field, and the reconstructed pole piece shape, figure6 shows these axial functions distributed along the z-optical axis for
different values of the parameter a(i.e., 0.5,1,1.5,2, and 2.5mm) when the other parameters are maintained fixed at the
values: V
0
=200(ampere-turn) and L=60mm. It is noted that the increasing of the parameter a causes the refractive power
to extending on a wide optical axial interval while its strength being decreases. However, it can be seen that as the
parameter a increases the half width W increases while the maximum flux density value B
max
decreases as shown in figure
7. Accordingly, the excitation NI of the lens decreases with increasing a.
As it shown in figure 6a and b, it is noted that the distribution of the axial potential and consequently the axial magnetic
field are asymmetric about the common symmetry plane (z=0). However, the right hand side distribution, i.e., the field
that distributed along the positive z-optical axis interval is more affected by varying the parameter a, where the area under
the field distribution is greater than that of the left hand side field. Therefore, the refractive power of the right hand side
field is greater than that of the left hand side field. Indeed, one can conclude that as the parameter a decreases the axial
magnetic field becomes more localized in the air gap region.
Actually, one can expect that the right hand side reconstructed pole pieces are of large bore radii from those of the left
hand side ones as shown in figure 6c. This result can be explained according to the field distribution, where, the
reconstructed magnetic pole piece of large bore radius is corresponding to slowly decreasing field and via versa.

Since the axial field distribution of the charged particle lens is asymmetric, therefore, it is expected that the first order
properties and third-order aberrations for the object and image spaces are different. However, figure 8 shows the variation
of the objective focal length f
o
, spherical C
s
and chromatic C
c
aberration coefficients with optimization parameter a at
NI/V
r
1/2
=20 for zero and infinite magnification modes. Obviously, the behavior of f
o
and C
c
evaluated in present work
concerning the synthesis procedure is similar to that of conventional one, where these optical properties are of small
values for the more localized field distribution that is distributed in the object space. Therefore, the charged particle lens
that operates under zero magnification mode concerning considered target function is of better f
o
and C
c
from that of
infinite magnification mode. This means that these parameters for the condenser field distribution are better than those of
the objective field one. On the other hand, the behavior of spherical aberration C
s
with the parameter a for the two sides
operations is not in agreement with the conventional behavior. However, it is seen that the values of C
s
for the lens
operates under infinite magnification mode are less than those for zero magnification mode. This result can be explained
according to the axial point on the optical axis in which the electron beam intersected. Actually, it is found that the path
of the electron beam under infinite magnification mode for all values of the parameter a intersects the optical axis at
points closer to the symmetry plane ( i.e. z=0) from that for zero magnification mode. Thereby, the field values
corresponding to points in which the electron path intersects the optical axis are greater than those for paths of zero mode

5. CONCLUSIONS
It appears that the results have shown the validity of the magnetostatic reduction problem using optimization by synthesis.
Also, the computations of the present work proved the efficiency magnetostatic reduction problem. Several remarks could
record in accordance the results shown above. The most important ones are that, for all values of the parameter a, lenses
operate under infinite magnification mode have small spherical aberration values compared with those operate under zero
magnification mode. Actually, this result is not a conventional one as in the analysis approach. Indeed, the results showed
that computations of synthesis approach with aid of simulink for more focal properties are in agreement with the
conventional design of charged particle lenses.
