Abstract:A survey is presented on the present state of the art in analytical transmission electron microscopy (ATEM). An essential advantage of this method is the simultaneous use of imaging, analytical and microdiffraction techniques with a lateral resolution in the 1.5 nm range. Two different analytical techniques are frequently used as ATEM attachments, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDXS) and electron energy loss spectrometry (EELS). Microscopic images with nanometer resolution may be also produced by energy… Show more
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.
