Absorption Potential for Dynamic Electron Diffraction - A Revisit
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 July 2020
Extract
Quantitative analysis of structural information provided by transmission electron diffraction and imaging strongly relies on computer simulations. An important quantity in dynamic calculation is the “absorption” potential. The absorption here actually means that the electron is not absorbed by the specimen rather it is scattered out of the elastic state (or Bragg peaks) due to energy-loss and momentum transfer, resulting in a decrease in the intensity of the elastic wave. This is the effect of inelastic scattering (or diffuse scattering) on the Bragg reflected waves [1]. Almost all of the model calculations for the absorption potential have been based on the approximation o riginally introduced by Y o sh ioka, in which the Green's function is approximated by its form in free-space. Thus, the absorption potential is simplified into a non-local function that depends only on the nature of the inelastic scattering.
