Cross Section Transmission Electron Microscopy (XTEM) on Inert Gas Implanted Metals

  • Chapter
Fundamental Aspects of Inert Gases in Solids

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 279))

Abstract

TEM specimen foils prepared perpendicular to the implanted surface allow a direct observation of the entire region modified by the injected ions. In this way depth resolved microstructural information can be obtained. The preparation technique developed for this purpose is extensively described here and applications are shown for copper and stainless steel implanted with various inert gases.
