How to eliminate vignetting/edge effects/charging effects
Creating a perfect image requires a combination of theoretical knowledge and practical experience and a balance between many factors. This process may encounter some challenging issues in the use of Electron Microscope. Astigmatism is one of the most difficult corrections to make in an image and requires practice. The middle image in the following figure is a correctly focused image after astigmatism correction. The left and right images are examples of poor astigmatism correction, resulting in stretched stripes in the image. To achieve precise imaging, the cross-section of the Electron Beam (probe) should be circular when it reaches the specimen. The cross-section of…
