Intrinsic instability of aberration-corrected electron microscopes.
Aberration-corrected microscopes with subatomic resolution will impact broad areas of science and technology. However, the experimentally observed lifetime of the corrected state is just a few minutes. Here we show that the corrected state is intrinsically unstable; the higher its quality, the more unstable it is. Analyzing the contrast transfer function near optimum correction, we define an "i...
متن کاملAberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy of semiconductors
The scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) has been able to image individual heavy atoms in a light matrix for some time. It is now able to do much more: it can resolve individual atoms as light as boron in monolayer materials; image atomic columns as light as hydrogen, identify the chemical type of individual isolated atoms from the intensity of their annular dark field (ADF) image a...
متن کاملPerformance Estimation of a Real-time Aberration Correction System for Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopes
The resolution of a scanning transmission electron microscope remains 100 times worse than its theoretical limit owing to the spherical aberration of objective lens. Ikuta proposed a system to generate an aberration-free amplitude image and phase image using multiple small detectors with real-time signal processing. This study shows the performance optimization results of its signal processing ...
متن کاملHigh-energy-resolution monochromator for aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy/electron energy-loss spectroscopy.
An all-magnetic monochromator/spectrometer system for sub-30 meV energy-resolution electron energy-loss spectroscopy in the scanning transmission electron microscope is described. It will link the energy being selected by the monochromator to the energy being analysed by the spectrometer, without resorting to decelerating the electron beam. This will allow it to attain spectral energy stability...
متن کاملOptical depth sectioning in the aberration-corrected scanning transmission and scanning confocal electron microscope
The use of spherical aberration correctors in the scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) has the effect of reducing the depth of field of the microscope, making three-dimensional imaging of a specimen possible by optical sectioning. Depth resolution can be improved further by placing aberration correctors and lenses pre and post specimen to achieve an imaging mode known as scanning co...
