Abstract

The resolution of conventional electron microscopes is usually limited by spherical aberration. Microscopes equipped with aberration correctors are then primarily limited by higher order, chromatic, and misalignment aberrations. In particular the Nion third-order aberration correctors installed on machines with a low energy spread and possessing sophisticated alignment software were limited by the uncorrected fifth-order aberrations. Here we show how the Nion fifth-order aberration corrector can be used to adjust and reduce some of the fourth- and fifth-order aberrations in a probe-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope.
