Electrostatic mirror chromatic aberration (Cc) correctors, according to the present disclosure, comprise an electrostatic electron mirror that itself comprises a multipole. The electrostatic electron mirror is positioned within the corrector such that, when the corrector is in use, an electron beam passing through the corrector is not incident on the electrostatic electron mirror along the optical axis of the mirror. The mirror object distance of the electrostatic mirror is equal to the mirror image distance of the electrostatic mirror, and the electrostatic mirror is configured such that the electrostatic mirror applies no dispersion or coma aberration to the electron beam. The multipole is positioned in the mirror plane of the electrostatic electron mirror, and in some embodiments the multipole is a quadrupole.
