Reconstruction of atomic resolution images from sparse datasets of radiation sensitive materials in scanning transmission electron microscopy

University of Sheffield
School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering
Scanning transmission electron microscopy is an imaging method that raster scans a focused high-energy electron beam across a thin sample and measures the electron intensity behind the specimen with either a small detector placed on axis (bright field) or a larger, ring-like detector placed off-axis (annular dark field).
