Abstract
Atomic scattering factor f(2θ), which is the amplitude including phase of waves scattered from an atom, is explained in Sect. 5.1. The argument 2θ corresponds to scattering/diffraction angles . In this chapter, we study the details of the theory and derivation. This knowledge is a basis for the observation of a single atom using a transmission electron microscope .
