Scanning transmission electron microscopy: imaging and analysis

Scanning transmission electron microscopy has become a mainstream technique for imaging and analysis at atomic resolution and sensitivity, and the authors of this book are widely credited with bringing the field to its present popularity. Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy(STEM): Imaging and Analysis will provide a comprehensive explanation of the theory and practice of STEM fromintroductory to advanced levels, covering the instrument, image formation andscattering theory, and definition and measurement of resolution for both imaging and analysis. The authors will present examples of the use of combined imaging and spectroscopy for solving materials problems in a variety of fields, including condensed matter physics, materials science, catalysis, biology, and nanoscience. Therefore this will be a comprehensive reference for those working in applied fields wishing to use the technique, for graduate students learning microscopy for the first time, and for specialists in other fields of microscopy. Provides the first comprehensive treatment of the physics and applications of this mainstream technique for imaging and analysis at the atomic level Presents applications of STEM in condensed matter physics, materials science, catalysis, and nanoscience Suitable for graduate students learning microscopy,researchers wishing to utilize STEM, as well as for specialists in other areas of microscopy Edited and written by leading researchers and practitioners INDICE: Electron Optics and Aberration Correction.- Fundamentals of Scattering Theory.- Image formation in STEM.- Electron energy loss spectroscopy.- Energy dispersive x-ray analysis.- STEM of complex oxides.- STEM of complex alloys.- STEM of catalysts.- STEM of semiconductor devices.- STEM of ceramic materials.- STEM of quasicrystals.- STEM of nanomaterials.- 3D STEM: tomography.- 3D STEM: depth slicing.- Nanobeam diffraction.
