A quantitative study is made of the contrast from extrinsic stacking faults in silicon imaged under “weak‐beam” conditions in the electron microscope. The contrast is studied as a function of the inclination of the fault to the electron beam direction. It is shown that, within the experimental error, the contrast agrees with an analysis based upon standard scattering theory and a fault of finite width.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
