Abstract
Weak-beam dark field (WBDF) TEM produces narrowly spaced equal-thickness fringes in wedge-shaped crystals. Using non-systematic diffraction conditions, we have shown elsewhere that simple 2-beam kinematical theory (KT) calculations yield average fringe spacings that are for most practical purposes as satisfactorily accurate as the average spacings obtained from optimized multibeam dynamical theory (DT) calculations, As Fig. 1 shows, this result holds for deviations from the Bragg condition as low as 2x10-1 nm-1, and the differences between the results from the two calculational methods become increasingly insignificant for larger excitation errors. (Unless otherwise noted, all results reported here are for gold crystals, using the 200 beam at 100 KV; the DT calculations were made for 74 beams, using the selection criterion D as discussed in ref. [3]).
