Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to clarify the visualization of the electrostatic potential distribution at the interfaces of two different phases and find the local ion diffusion at the interface, intensity transport equations was applied to the transmission electron microscope (TEM) images. We succeeded in obtaining the electrostatic potential at the a-Ge film / vacuum interface from the three TEM images of under focus, in focus and over focus. Actually, we solved the problem that the low frequency component of white noise is emphasized in the TIE phase map by narrower region of interest, and also solved the problem that the intensity transport equation could not be applied to the image not satisfying the periodic boundary condition such as TEM image of two phase interface by mirroring method.
