Information transfer of 25.5 nm-1 in a 1-MV field-emission transmission electron microscope.

Information transfer of a 1-MV field-emission transmission electron microscope (TEM) was improved by reducing mechanical vibrations and improving the stability of an acceleration voltage. The resulting mechanical stability was estimated from lattice fringes with an obtained spacing of 19.6 pm under achromatic conditions. This value corresponds to a vibration amplitude of <19.6 pm. The stability of...
