Dislocations with a large edge component do not exhibit a full loss of di raction contrast in the transmission electron microscope unless the conditions g· bˆ0 and g· b uˆ0 are simultaneously met. Because of a similarity between transmission electron microscopy (TEM) di raction contrast and electron channelling contrast in the scanning electron microscope, the same contrast rules would be expected to apply for electron channelling contrast imaging (ECCI). Using the characteristic edge dislocations formed in annealed FeAl, it is demonstrated that the same extinction conditions apply for TEM di raction contrast and ECCI.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
