Keywords:
- Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) - sub-micrometre, internal fine structure in solids;
- TEM, and two types - CTEM and STEM, differing principally in the way they address specimen;
- scanning TEM (STEM) - deploying a fine focused beam;
- aberration correction, in principle - application in any magnetic lens, in any microscope;
- STEM, with a condenser system - better called as a probe-forming lens;
- aberration correction in STEM;
- conventional TEM (CTEM), wide-beam technique - electron beam flooding image;
- image computing - and image processing, artefacts in ‘black box’ processing;
- image simulation - input of a large number of pieces of information;
- specimen, suitability for TEM study - being thin enough, for electron transmission
