Abstract | Electron tomography (ET) in a TEM has been widely used to characterize materials at sub-10 nm spatial resolution. As any technique, ET has its limitations. One of the most serious problems is the “missing wedge” in Fourier space that arises from limited tilt angle range in a TEM. The most direct way to solve the problem is to tilt of sample over the full tilt range (-90° to 90°). The full tilt range ET was reported for example by Jinnai et. al., who analyzed polymer samples with metal nanoparticles. Here we report full tilt chemically selective ET of sub-10 nm Er clusters and Si crystallites embedded in SiOₓ matrix. The studied material is a possible candidate for fabrication of Sibased opto-electronic devices. |
