The 1s-state analysis applied to high-angle, annular dark-field image interpretation--when can we use it?
A small probe centered on an atomic column excites the bound and unbound states of the two-dimensional projected potential of the column. It has been argued that, even when several states are excited, only the 1s state is sufficiently localized to contribute a signal to the high-angle detector. This article shows that non-1s states do make a significant contribution for certain incident probe p...
متن کاملVariable-angle high-angle annular dark-field imaging: application to three-dimensional dopant atom profiling
Variable-angle high-angle annular dark-field (HAADF) imaging in scanning transmission electron microscopy is developed for precise and accurate determination of three-dimensional (3D) dopant atom configurations. Gd-doped SrTiO3 films containing Sr columns containing zero, one, or two Gd dopant atoms are imaged in HAADF mode using two different collection angles. Variable-angle HAADF significant...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of ultrathin doping layers in semiconductors using high-angle annular dark field images.
It is well known that the high-angle annular dark field (HAADF) technique in scanning transmission electron microscopy is an incoherent imaging process in the lateral (xy) plane. However, as a consequence of the existence of partial coherence in the z direction, accurate quantitative interpretation of image intensity is difficult. The effects of coherence in the z direction can be reduced by in...
متن کاملHigh spatial resolution tomographic reconstruction from STEM high angle annular dark field (HAADF) images
A technique for high spatial resolution three dimensional reconstruction from STEM HAADF images using electron tomography is presented. ‘Z-contrast’ images are shown to be ideal projections for tomography and examples are shown from nanostructured catalysts and magnetotactic bacteria crystallites. Results prove that accurate reconstruction is possible of both internal positions and exterior sha...
متن کاملCharacterization of Guinier-Preston Zones by High-Angle Annular Detector Dark-Field Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy
Age-hardened alloys are everywhere: in aeroplanes, aluminum sashes, electrical connections for computer devices, and so on. The materials that have made possible the very existence of these human inventions are manufactured based on a single materials-science principle known as ageing. Here, supersaturated impurity atoms that dissolved in an otherwise pure metal gather around inside the metal a...
