The presence of the "virtual aperture" created by the damping
envelopes imposes a resolution limit on the microscope: information limit.
|
|
Information limit goes well beyond point resolution limit for FEG
microscopes (due to high spatial
and temporal coherency).
|
For the microscopes with thermionic electron sources (LaB6 and
W), the info limit usually coincides with the point resolution.
|
Phase contrast images are directly interpretable only up to the point
resolution (Scherzer resolution limit).
|
If the information limit is beyond the point resolution limit,
one needs to use image simulation software to interpret any detail
beyond point resolution limit.
