My first reaction was to do away with the lens altogether, and put the CCD
straight into the TEM (it is a TEM isn't it?).  I'm not sure how far your
electrons would go in Si, as I used to do SEMs instead, but it ought to be
quite a bit less than the ten microns pitch of the devices.  They might also
make considerable IR, and the window of the CCD would probably have to go.

Has anyone tried this? :)

Thinks - they must have... no-one willingly electrons into light, then
light back into electrons unless they have to :(
