Electron microscope design, and particularly the design of the imaging system, has reached a high degree of perfection. Present objective lenses perform up to their theoretical limit, while the whole imaging system, consisting of three or four lenses, provides very wide ranges of magnification and diffraction camera length with virtually no distortion of the image. Evolution of the electron microscope in to a routine research tool in which objects of steadily increasing thickness are investigated, has made it necessary for the designer to pay special attention to the chromatic aberrations of the magnification system (as distinct from the chromatic aberration of the objective lens). These chromatic aberrations cause edge un-sharpness of the image due to electrons which have suffered energy losses in the object.There exist two kinds of chromatic aberration of the magnification system; the chromatic change of magnification, characterized by the coefficient Cm, and the chromatic change of rotation given by Cp.

The initial attractions of the high voltage electron microscope (HVEM) stemmed mainly from the possibility of considerable increases in electron penetration through thick specimens compared with conventional 100KV microscopes, although the potential improvement in resolution associated with the decrease in election wavelength had been fully appreciated for many years (eg. Cosslett, 1946)1, even if not realizable in practice. Subsequent technological advances enabled the performance of lower voltage machines to be brought closer to the theoretical limit, to be followed in turn by more recent projects which have been successful, eventually, in achieving even higher resolution with dedicated higher voltage instruments such as those at Kyoto (500KV)2, Munich (400KV)3, Ibaraki (1250KV)4 and Cambridge (600KV)5. It does not necessarily follow however that the performance of journal high voltage microscopes can be easily upgraded, retrospectively, to the same level, as will be discussed in detail below.

ABSTRACTWhile the most promising longitudinal recording systems cannot surpass the theoretical limit of about 200 Gb/in2 for areal recording density and the demand for higher densities is permanently increasing, the perpendicular magnetic recording constitutes the realistic issue to the longitudinal one. The perpendicular magnetic recording offers significant advantages, the most important being stronger write and read fields, and therefore the use of media of higher anisotropy, smaller grain size, higher signal-to-noise ratio, and a better thermal stability. Unfortunately, the perpendicular recording has to cope some important physical and technological difficulties. To overcome them, many ingenious solutions were proposed. In this paper the coupled granular/continuous (CGC) media, a subtle association of the continuous and, respectively, granular media, are analysed from the viewpoint of their magnetic and recording properties. The challenges and possible improvements of CGC media are discussed.
