摘要
Optimum values for the objective aperture angle and defocus for dark-field imaging in STEM and CTEM are calculated based on the point-scatterer approximation. The effect of chromatic and spherical aberration is taken into account. The resolution limit for the dark-field mode and several phase-contrast modes is calculated. The comparison shows that some phase-contrast imaging modes (e.g. hollow-cone illumination in CTEM and the difference signal of a ring detector configuration in the STEM) are superior in resolution power to the dark-field mode.
