4D Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (4D STEM)
4D Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (4D STEM) refers to electron-microscopy acquisition or detector systems producing spatially indexed diffraction data.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Scan coordinates, detector acquisition, sample conditions and analysis define the data; data dimensionality is different from spatial resolution.
What turns activity into demand
Define the purchased configuration, installation or application interfaces and acceptance requirements. Initial equipment purchases, replacements, consumables and related services need separate commercial boundaries.
The commercial boundary
Use the selected edition’s product level, geography, years and measurement basis. Materials, components, finished systems and services are separate commercial boundaries unless the edition explicitly combines them.
Which supplied scope and interfaces define 4D Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (4D STEM)?
Scan coordinates, detector acquisition, sample conditions and analysis define the data; data dimensionality is different from spatial resolution.
