Introduction to conventional transmission electron microscopy
Material type: TextLanguage: English Publication details: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2003. Description: xxi, 718p. PbkISBN: 9780521629959Subject(s): Transmission electron microscopy | Lattice geometry | Crystal symmetry | Bragg equationDDC classification: 519.716 Summary: This 2003 book covers the fundamentals of conventional transmission electron microscopy (CTEM) as applied to crystalline solids. Emphasis is on the experimental and computational methods used to quantify and analyze CTEM observations. A supplementary website containing interactive modules and free Fortran source code accompanies the text. The book starts with the basics of crystallography and quantum mechanics providing a sound mathematical footing for the rest of the text. The next section deals with the microscope itself, describing the various components in terms of the underlying theory. The second half of the book focuses on the dynamical theory of electron scattering in solids including its applications to perfect and defective crystals, electron diffraction and phase contrast techniques. Based on a lecture course given by the author in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, the book is ideal for graduate students as well as researchers new to the field.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
