- Abstract
- Integrating in situ deformation and electron tomography (ET) techniques allows us to visualize the materials’ response to an applied stress with nanometer spatial resolution. The capability of structural, chemical, and morphological characterization in three-dimension real time and at sub-microscopic levels alleviates several persistent problems of two-dimensional imaging such as the projection effect and postmortem appearance. On the other hand, implementing deformation mechanism introduces additional experimental constraints that could influence the accuracy of the reconstructed volumes in a different way. To materialize quantitative and statistically relevant microstructure interpretation by time-resolved ET, we evaluated several key parameters such as angular tilt range, tilt increment, and reconstruction algorithms to characterize their influences on the accuracy of size and morphology reproducibility.
- 解説
- この論文では、電子線トモグラフィー法を先端材料の研究に導入するに先立って、観察対象の大きさや電子線の透過率、観察(投影)範囲と投影総数、そして再構成アルゴリズムが再構成結果に与える影響を定量化することを試みています。形状,材質,寸法が既知の試料を使うことで、極めて理論値に近い実践的なデータを得ることに成功しています。
