摘要
A method of preparation, which makes it possible to form defectless cross sections for transmission electron microscopy from heterostructures and ensures atomic resolution over a larger surface area, is described in details. The method is illustrated with examples of studies on complexly shaped heterointerfaces and selective oxidation and selective etching of superlattices.
