چکیده

A method for ab initio structure factor retrieval from large-angle rocking-beam electron diffraction data of thin crystals is described and tested with experimental and simulated data. No additional information, such as atomicity or information about chemical composition, has been made use of. Our numerical experiments show that the inversion of dynamical scattering works best, if the beam tilt range is large and the specimen not too thick, because for moderate multiple scattering, the large tilt amplitude effectively removes local minima in this global optimization problem.

On the Use of Precession Electron Diffraction for Minerals Characterization: From Twinning Identification to Structure Refinement

The precession electron diffraction (PED) technique [1] has been originally developed for structure determination at a submicrometer scale in a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Since, many structures have been solved using PED, recently combined with the tomographic acquisition of 3D electron diffraction data [2]. Using PED, integrated intensities of the diffracted beams as a function of...

Analysis of Kikuchi band contrast reversal in electron backscatter diffraction patterns of silicon.

We analyze the contrast reversal of Kikuchi bands that can be seen in electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) patterns under specific experimental conditions. The observed effect can be reproduced using dynamical electron diffraction calculations. Two crucial contributions are identified to be at work: First, the incident beam creates a depth distribution of incoherently backscattered electrons...

Coherent convergent-beam time-resolved X-ray diffraction.

The use of coherent X-ray lasers for structural biology allows the use of nanometre diameter X-ray beams with large beam divergence. Their application to the structure analysis of protein nanocrystals and single particles raises new challenges and opportunities. We discuss the form of these coherent convergent-beam (CCB) hard X-ray diffraction patterns and their potential use for time-resolved ...

Convergent beam electron diffraction

The development of new materials requires an understanding of their mode of growth and the nature of defects, interfaces and strains thereby incorporated. This paper shows how convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED) and large angle CBED (LACBED) can be used to analyse such problems. It is shown how CBED and LACBED can give two-beam rocking curves, which can be used to profile plane rotation...

On the peculiarities of CBED pattern formation revealed by multislice simulation.

A modified multislice method has been developed for calculations of Convergent Beam Electron Diffraction (CBED) patterns. The validity of the method for HOLZ- and Kikuchi-line calculations has been proofed by comparison to Bloch-wave calculations. The application of the method leads to the new understanding of CBED patterns formation. Dynamical scattering of weak HOLZ reflections plays the key ...
