Publisher's Synopsis
This is an introduction to the fundamental concepts, techniques and methods used for electron microscopy at high resolution in space, energy and time. It delineates the theory of elastic scattering, which is most useful for spectroscopies and chemical analysis. There are also discussions of the theory and practice of image calculations and applications of HRTEM to the study of solid surfaces, highly disordered materials, solid state chemistry, mineralogy, semiconductors and metals.
