Abstract

Atomic resolution high-voltage transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy were performed on grain boundaries of boron-doped diamond, cooperated with the ab-initio calculation. Segregated boron in the {112}∑3 boundary was caught by the EELS spectra. The change in atomic structure of the segregated boundary was successfully observed from the image by ARHVTEM. Based on the ARHVTEM image, a segregted structure model was proposed.
