Notes:
In a 2N-pole electromagnetic system, defining the electron optical Hamiltonian function, we have derived both general algebraic expressions (arbitrary N) and special numerical formulas (N=3,4,5,6,7) for different aberrations from lower to higher order (i.e., the order of N−1, N+1, 2N−3, 2N−1, 3N−5). The so-called canonical aberration theory in electromagnetic multipoles has thus been developed, which allows us to deduce angular dependencies of different aberrations and to examine the possibility for spherical correction of a round lens by using multipoles.
