Abstract

The high resolution electron microscope is powerful for modern materials science, because of its direct observation capability for the atomic structure of materials. The JEM-4000EX, a 400 kV accelerating voltage electron microscope whose objective lens has a 1 mm spherical aberration coefficient, has a 0.168 nm theoretical resolving power. Using this microscope, atomic structure images of high Tc superconductor such as Y-Ba-Cu-O, Bi-Ca-Sr-Cu-O and Tl -Ca-Ba-Cu-O were observed.
