Abstract

A new method for recording multiple dark-field transmission electron micrographs using a scanning transmission electron microscope fitted with a quadrant detector is described. Simultaneous multiple recording is particularly advantageous when studying electron beamsensitive polymers and images of crystals of poly(butylene terephthalate) are presented by way of example. Resolution levels of ca. 10 nm are demonstrated.
