Summary:

This book describes how to see atoms using electron microscopes. This new edition includes updated sections on applications and new uses of atomic-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Several new chapters and sources of software for image interpretation and electron-optical design have also been added. - ;The discovery of the Nanotube in 1991 by electron microscopy has ushered in the era of Nanoscience. The atomic-resolution electron microscope has been a crucial tool in this effort. This book gives the basic theoretical background needed to understand how electron microscopes allow us
