On the structural origins of ferroelectricity in HfO2 thin films

TL;DR: In this article, a structural study on the origin of ferroelectricity in Gd doped HfO2 thin films is presented, which provides unambiguous evidence for the existence of a non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic phase that can support spontaneous polarization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Four-Dimensional Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (4D-STEM): From Scanning Nanodiffraction to Ptychography and Beyond.

TL;DR: The use of these four-dimensional STEM experiments for virtual diffraction imaging, phase, orientation and strain mapping, measurements of medium-range order, thickness and tilt of samples, and phase contrast imaging methods, including differential phase contrast, ptychography, and others are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase contrast STEM for thin samples: Integrated differential phase contrast.

TL;DR: The theory is validated with simulations and the first experimental results of the iDPC-STEM technique are presented showing its capability for imaging both light and heavy elements with atomic resolution and a good signal to noise ratio (SNR).
Journal ArticleDOI

Picometre-precision analysis of scanning transmission electron microscopy images of platinum nanocatalysts

TL;DR: Sub-picometre precision and standardless atom counting with <1 atom uncertainty in the same scanning transmission electron microscopy image provide new insight into the three-dimensional atomic structure of catalyst nanoparticle surfaces, which contain the active sites controlling catalytic reactions.

EELS Log-Ratio Technique for Specimen-Thickness Measurement in the TEM

TL;DR: This paper discusses measurement of the local thickness t of a transmission microscope specimen from the log-ratio formula t = lambda ln (It/I0) where It and I0 are the total and zero-loss areas under the electron-energy loss spectrum.

The determination of foil thickness by scanning transmission electron microscopy

TL;DR: In this article, a simple and accurate method of determining foil thickness is described, which makes use of measurements of the spacing of intensity oscillations in convergent beam diffraction patterns obtained with commercial scanning transmission electron microscopes.

Direct observation of d-orbital holes and Cu–Cu bonding in Cu2O

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used convergent-beam electron diffraction combined with X-ray diffraction to map the charge-density distribution in the simple oxide Cu2O, which then compare with electronic-structure calculations.
