  • Abstract
    Atomic resolution transmission electron microscopy, even with an aberration free microscope, is only able to resolve and refine amorphous structures at the atomic level for very small foil thicknesses. Then, a precision of the order of 0.01 Å is possible, but this may require long recording times, especially for light atoms. For larger thicknesses, amorphous structures can in principle only be resolved and refined using electron tomography.
