Calculation of integrated intensities in aberration-corrected Z-contrast images.

Optimized conditions for imaging the effects of bonding charge density in electron microscopy.

We report on the observability of valence bonding effects in aberration-corrected high resolution electron microscopy (HREM) images along the [010] projection of the mineral Forsterite (Mg₂SiO₄). We have also performed exit wave restorations using simulated noisy images and have determined that both the intensities of individual images and the modulus of the restored complex exit wave are most ...

روشی نوین در کاهش نوفه رایسین از مقدار بزرگی سیگنال دیفیوژن در تصویربرداری تشدید مغناطیسی (MRI)

The true MR signal intensity extracted from noisy MR magnitude images is biased with the Rician noise caused by noise rectification in the magnitude calculation for low intensity pixels. This noise is more problematic when a quantitative analysis is performed based on the magnitude images with low SNR(<3.0). In such cases, the received signal for both the real and imaginary components will fluc...

Electron dose dependence of signal-to-noise ratio, atom contrast and resolution in transmission electron microscope images.

In order to achieve the highest resolution in aberration-corrected (AC) high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images, high electron doses are required which only a few samples can withstand. In this paper we perform dose-dependent AC-HRTEM image calculations, and study the dependence of the signal-to-noise ratio, atom contrast and resolution on electron dose and sampling. We ...

Contrast formation mechanism of spherical aberration corrected bright- field STEM images using a middle collection angle

Aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy: from atomic imaging and analysis to solving energy problems.

The new possibilities of aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) extend far beyond the factor of 2 or more in lateral resolution that was the original motivation. The smaller probe also gives enhanced single atom sensitivity, both for imaging and for spectroscopy, enabling light elements to be detected in a Z-contrast image and giving much improved phase contrast i...
