摘要
High-angle annular dark-field (HAADF) imaging in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) is highly sensitive to both the atomic number and the Debye-Waller factor of the atom columns. We will discuss the experimental requirements for a quantitative understanding of STEM image contrast, in particular the determination of the precise specimen thickness. We show that near perfect agreement can be achieved between theory and experiment and demonstrate that quantitative STEM allows for column-by-column counting of all the atoms in an arbitrarily shaped specimen.
