Problem

For electrons emitted by one plate of capacitors, a round hole in the second plate is a single lens if the radius of the hole is much smaller than the distance between the plates d. a. Does the focal length of this lens depend on the potential difference between the plates? b. Determine the focal length of this lens using the formula given in problem 7.1.27a. Ignore the initial electron velocity.
