Abstract:
Multislice calculations have been performed for Ag, Pd and Au clusters in the size range of ≃5.0 nm diameter of cuboctahedral, icosahedral and decahedral structures. It could be shown that tilt series are necessary for the classification of the structures. Particularly for arbitrary orientations, i.e. deviations from main directions such as 2-, 3- and 5-fold axes, the performance of computer simulations is mandatory. The influence of absorption is also studied for the case of a 100kV microscope by introducing a complex potential.
