Abstract

Electron energy loss spectroscopy offers several advantages over other optical techniques in terms of dielectric functions, momentum transfer giving rise to optical forbidden transitions, and in determining the localized nature of excitations. A cold field emission gun (cFEG) electron microscopy (TEM) equipped with a parallel electron energy loss spectrometer (EELS) provides a reasonable energy resolution, a small beam probe and a high counting rate, which eases conditions of sample preparation and makes certain EELS measurements more feasible to do. The electron energy loss spectra of high temperature superconducting materials by using cFEG TEM EELS.
