Precession Electron Diffraction in the Transmission Electron Microscope: electron crystallography and orientational mapping
Precession electron diffraction (PED) is a hollow cone non-stationary illumination technique for electron diffraction pattern collection under quasikinematical conditions (as in X-ray Diffraction), which enables “ab-initio” solving of crystalline structures of nanocrystals. The PED technique is recently used in TEM instruments of voltages 100 to 300 kV to turn them into true electron diffractom...
متن کاملOn the alignment for precession electron diffraction.
Precession electron diffraction has seen a fast increase in its adoption as a technique for solving crystallographic structures as well as an alternative to conventional selected-area and converged-beam diffraction methods. One of the key issues of precession is the pivot point alignment, as a stationary apparent beam does not guarantee a fixed pivot point. A large precession tilt angle, along ...
متن کاملProspects for aberration corrected electron precession.
Recent developments in aberration control in the TEM have yielded a tremendous enhancement of direct imaging capabilities for studying atomic structures. However, aberration correction also has substantial benefits for achieving ultra-resolution in the TEM through reciprocal space techniques. Several tools are available that allow very accurate detection of the electron distribution in surfaces...
متن کاملElectron precession: A guide for implementation
The design approach for electron precession systems designed at Northwestern University is described, and examples of systems retrofitted onto two different transmission electron microscopes using this method are demonstrated. The precession diffraction patterns from these instruments are of good quality while simultaneously being very easy to acquire. A 15-minute procedure for aligning these i...
متن کاملElectron crystallography – an introduction
Everything in Nature, macroscopic or microscopic, inorganic, organic or biological, has its specific properties. Most properties of matter depend on the structures, and many techniques have been developed over the centuries for structure analysis. The greatest of them all, structure analysis of single crystals by X-ray diffraction, X-ray crystallography, was founded in 1912 and is still today t...
