    Abstract: Apparatus for spin polarizing a particle beam, which is adapted to process an input particle beam (Bi) in such a way as to generate an at least partially spin polarized output particle beam (Bo), and comprises:
    - a vortex beam generator (1) for imparting orbital angular momentum to the input particle beam;
    - an electromagnetic field generator (5) for generating a transverse magnetic field, space-variant and symmetric with respect to the (z) axis of the input particle beam, in such a way as to change the spin of the particles and attach thereto a plurality of different values of orbital angular momentum in dependence on their input spin values; and
    - a beam component separating group (7, 9) for spatially separating the particles in dependence on their orbital angular momentum values, in such a way as to obtain the at least partially spin polarized output particle beam.

    Abstract: A device (100) for imparting an orbital angular momentum to a charged particle wave propagating along a beam axis (104) in a charged particle beam generating apparatus is described. The device comprises a support element (106) having a target region (108) adapted for transmitting a charged particle wave propagating along a beam axis (104) and an induction means (112) for inducing a magnetic flux along an elongated profile having a free end portion located in said target region (108) and the induction means (112) is adapted for providing a magnetic flux in said elongated profile in order to induce an angular gradient, relative to the beam axis (104), of the phase of the charged particle wave when transmitted through said target region (108). A corresponding method is also disclosed, as well as the use thereof in electron microscopy.

    Abstract: This invention proposes, among other things, systems and methods for providing ozone generators or plasma generators that generate an electric field in an electron generation chamber that is separate from a reaction chamber. An electron beam emitter in an electron generation chamber is configured to emit a beam of electrons and is separated from the reaction chamber by an electron permeable barrier that provides a window through which the beam of electrons passes. The electrons are accelerated to the required energy in the electron generation chamber and transmitted through the barrier to the reaction chamber, where an input gas source introduces an input gas into the reaction chamber. The input gas may react with the beam of electrons inside the reaction chamber to form an output gas comprising a plasma or a concentration of ozone, and the output gas passes from the reaction chamber to a wafer processing chamber.
