Aberration-Corrected Transmission Electron Microscopy Reveals Nanoscale Disorder in Bismuth Ferrite Single Crystals
In recent years, in particular after it was demonstrated [2] that thin epitactic films of BFO display extraordinary high values of spontaneous electric polarization, the work on electric and magnetic properties and their coupling concentrated on thin film systems. Also the structure of polarization-domain walls in these films was studied by transmission electron microscopy [e.g. 3-6]. In our wo...
متن کاملNanowire growth kinetics in aberration corrected environmental transmission electron microscopy.
We visualize atomic level dynamics during Si nanowire growth using aberration corrected environmental transmission electron microscopy, and compare with lower pressure results from ultra-high vacuum microscopy. We discuss the importance of higher pressure observations for understanding growth mechanisms and describe protocols to minimize effects of the higher pressure background gas.
متن کاملEnvironmental transmission electron microscopy in an aberration-corrected environment.
The increasing use of environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM) in materials science provides exciting new possibilities for investigating chemical reactions and understanding both the interaction of fast electrons with gas molecules and the effect of the presence of gas on high-resolution imaging. A gaseous atmosphere in the pole-piece gap of the objective lens of the microscope al...
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 کاملStudying atomic structures by aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy.
Seventy-five years after its invention, transmission electron microscopy has taken a great step forward with the introduction of aberration-corrected electron optics. An entirely new generation of instruments enables studies in condensed-matter physics and materials science to be performed at atomic-scale resolution. These new possibilities are meeting the growing demand of nanosciences and nan...
