A deflection plate for deflecting charged particles, the plate comprising a recess is provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A deflection plate for deflecting charged particles, wherein the deflection plate has a recess within the deflection plate, further wherein the recess is a rectangular recess fully enclosed by the deflection plate. 2. The deflection plate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the deflection plate is a substantially flat plate. 3. The deflection plate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the recess is a hole. 4. The deflection plate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the recess is a slot. 5. The deflection plate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the recess is arranged centrally in the deflection plate. 6. The deflection plate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the deflection plate comprises a conductive material, the conductive material being a metal. 7. The deflection device for deflecting charged particles, wherein the deflection device comprises a first deflection plate as claimed in claim 1 . 8. A deflection device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the deflection device comprises a second deflection plate. 9. The deflection device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the first deflection plate and the second deflection plate are, wherein the first deflection plate and the second deflection plate are oriented perpendicular to a second spatial direction, wherein the first deflection plate and the second deflection plate are spaced apart in the second spatial direction. 10. The deflection device as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the deflection device comprises a third deflection plate and a fourth deflection plate, wherein the third deflection plate is displaced in relation to the first deflection plate in a third spatial direction perpendicular to the second spatial direction, wherein the fourth deflection plate is displaced in relation to the second deflection plate in the third spatial direction. 11. The deflection device as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the deflection device is configured to deflect a charged particle moving in the third spatial direction into the second spatial direction. 12. The deflection plate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the deflection plate is a circuit board having a metallic coating, and the recess is formed only in the metallic coating. 13. A deflection plate for deflecting charged particles, wherein the deflection plate has a recessed portion, and the recessed portion is rectangular. 14. A deflection plate for deflecting charged particles, wherein the deflection plate has a recess within the deflection plate, the deflection plate is a circuit board having a metallic coating, and the recess is formed only in the metallic coating.
