Microfabricated devices designed to provide phase contrast in the transmission electron microscope must be free of phase distortions caused by unexpected electrostatic effects. We find that such phase distortions occur even when a device is heated to 300°C during use in order to avoid the formation of polymerized, carbonaceous contamination. Remaining factors that could cause unwanted phase distortions...
A novel design is described for an aperture that blocks a half-plane of the electron diffraction pattern out to a desired scattering angle, and then – except for a narrow support beam – transmits all of the scattered electrons beyond that angle. Our proposed tulip-shaped design is thus a hybrid between the single-sideband (ssb) aperture, which blocks a full half-plane of the diffraction pattern, and...
