Introduction to Conventional Transmission Electron Microscopy [Paperback]

A graduate level textbook covering the fundamentals of conventional transmission electron microscopy, first published in 2003.This book covers the fundamentals of conventional transmission electron microscopy (CTEM) as applied to crystalline solids. Complete with over 300 line diagrams and half tones as well as a large selection of worked examples and homework problems; there is also a supplementary website containing interactive modules and free Fortran source code to accompany the text. Based on a lecture course given by the author in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, the book is ideal for graduate students as well researchers new to the field.This book covers the fundamentals of conventional transmission electron microscopy (CTEM) as applied to crystalline solids.

In addition to including a large selection of worked examples and homework problems, the volume is accompanied by a supplementary website (http://ctem.web.cmu.edu/) containing interactive modules and over 30,000 lines of free Fortran 90 source code. The work is based on a lecture course given by Marc De Graef in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University.1. Basic crystallography; 2.
