Abstract
Single gadolinium atoms in fullerenes encapsulated in a single-wall carbon nanotube were observed by a wave field restoration method based on three-dimensional Fourier filtering in transmission electron microscopy. Single gadolinium atoms were clearly resolved not only in the imaginary part image but also in the real part image of the exit wave field due to an improved signal-to-noise ratio by Fourier filtering and resolution enhancement by correcting spherical aberration and twofold astigmatism. This result indicates that the present method has potential to clarify compositional details of the sample by using their image contrasts.
