Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) allows for imaging, diffraction, and spectroscopy of materials on length scales ranging from microns to atoms. By using a high-speed, direct detector, it is now possible record full 2D image the diffracted beam at each probe position, typically grid positions. These 4D-STEM datasets are rich in information, including signatures local structure, orientation, deformation, electromagnetic fields other sample-dependent properties. However,...
Abstract To date, there has not yet been a direct observation of the initiation and propagation individual defects in metallic glasses during deformation at nanoscale. Here, we show through combination situ nanobeam electron diffraction large-scale molecular dynamics simulations that can directly observe changes to local short medium range atomic ordering formation shear band. We experimentally spatially resolved reduction order prior banding due increased strain. compare this simulations,...
Abstract We present a method that lowers the dose required for an electron ptychographic reconstruction by adaptively scanning specimen, thereby providing spatial information redundancy in regions of highest importance. The proposed is built upon deep learning model trained reinforcement learning, using prior knowledge specimen structure from training data sets. show adaptive ptychography outperforms alternative low-dose experiments terms resolution and quality.
The local elastic strains during tensile deformation in a CuZrAlAg metallic glass are obtained by fitting an elliptic shape function to the characteristic amorphous ring electron diffraction patterns. Scanning nanobeam enables strain mapping with resolution of few nanometers. Here, fast direct detector is used acquire patterns at sufficient speed map transient continuous loading situ transmission microscope. direction was found increase loading. After catastrophic fracture, residual that...
The overdetermination of the mathematical problem underlying ptychography is reduced by a host experimentally more desirable settings. Furthermore, reconstruction sample-induced phase shift typically limited uncertainty in experimental parameters and finite sample thicknesses. Presented conjugate gradient descent algorithm, regularized optimization for (ROP), that recovers partially known along with shift, improves resolution incorporating multislice formalism to treat thicknesses, includes...
Summary Gallium‐based focused ion beams generated from liquid–metal sources are widely used in micromachining and sample preparation for transmission electron microscopy, with well‐known drawbacks such as damage contamination. In this work, an alternative (neon) beam by a gas field‐ionization source is evaluated the of electron‐transparent specimens. To do so, sections Si Al alloy prepared both Ga Ne direct comparison. Diffraction‐contrast imaging energy dispersive x‐ray spectroscopy to...
High-throughput grain mapping with sub-nanometer spatial resolution is demonstrated using scanning nanobeam electron diffraction (also known as 4D transmission microscopy, or 4D-STEM) combined high-speed direct-electron detection. An probe size down to 0.5 nm in diameter used and the sample investigated a gold–palladium nanoparticle catalyst. Computational analysis of 4D-STEM data sets performed disk registration algorithm identify peaks followed by feature learning map individual grains....
Abstract Increasing interest in three-dimensional nanostructures adds impetus to electron microscopy techniques capable of imaging at or below the nanoscale three dimensions. We present a reconstruction algorithm that takes as input focal series four-dimensional scanning transmission (4D-STEM) data. apply approach lead iridate, PbIrO, and yttrium-stabilized zirconia, YZrO, heterostructure from data acquired with specimen single plan-view orientation, epitaxial layers stacked along beam...
A detailed analysis of ptychography for three-dimensional (3D) phase reconstructions thick specimens is performed. We introduce multi-focus ptychography, which incorporates a 4D-STEM defocus series to enhance the quality 3D along beam direction through higher overdetermination ratio. This method compared with established multi-slice techniques, such as conventional regularized and multi-mode ptychography. Additionally, we contrast an alternative that uses virtual optical sectioning...
