We report a new method that gives atomic resolution in the reconstruction of simulated holograms in theoretical low energy electron point source (LEEPS) microscopy, and that uses a screen size that is commensurate with screen sizes used in experimental LEEPS. The method exploits the spherical symmetry in the electron waves emerging from the source. We compare holograms obtained by rotating the ...

Metal cluster (MC) is a bound system consisting of atoms of some metal. The amount of atoms can vary from a few to many thousands. Some MC, mainly of alkali (Li, K, Na, ...) and noble (Ag, Au, ...) metals, demonstrate a striking similarity to atomic nuclei (see reviews). In these clusters the valence electrons are weakly coupled to the ions and, like nucleons in nuclei, are not strongly localiz...
