摘要
The formation of elemental maps in an electron microscope with an imaging energy filter is discussed. The validity of the dipole approximation for the computation of element specific images is demonstrated by explicit comparison with central-field calculations. To obtain a reasonable signal/noise ratio it is vital to use a finite energy window. The attainable resolution is calculated as a function of the width of the energy window. A practical resolution limit of about 1 nm seems feasible.
