Differential phase-contrast (DPC) imaging enhances the image contrast of weakly absorbing,
low-atomic-number objects in optical and X-ray microscopy 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 . In transmission …

Complete understanding of atomic resolution high-angle annular dark-field (Z-contrast)
images requires quantitative agreement between simulations and experiments. We show that …

A finely focused angstrom-sized coherent electron probe produces a convergent beam
electron diffraction pattern composed of overlapping orders of diffracted disks that sensitively …

We demonstrate that high-angle annular dark-field imaging in scanning transmission electron
microscopy allows for quantification of the number and location of all atoms in a three-…

The aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope allows probes to be
formed with less than 1-Å diameter, providing sufficient sensitivity to observe individual Hf …

Determining both cation and oxygen sublattices of grain boundaries is essential to understand
the properties of oxides. Here, with scanning transmission electron microscopy, electron …

Characterizing magnetic structures down to atomic dimensions is central to the design and
control of nanoscale magnetism in materials and devices. However, real-space visualization …

In scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), single atoms can be imaged by
detecting electrons scattered through high angles using post-specimen, annular-type detectors. …

A new area detector for atomic-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM)
is developed and tested. The circular detector is divided into 16 segments which are …

Direct observation of light elements (Li and O) in oxygen‐deficient lithium manganese spinel
by spherical aberration‐corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy is reported. A …
