Optimal acceleration voltage for near-atomic resolution imaging of layer-stacked 2D polymer thin films
High-resolution imaging of organic 2D materials using transmission electron microscopes is challenging. Here, the authors find the optimal electron acceleration voltage, and demonstrate 1.9 Å resolution, enabling detection of interstitial defects and functional groups in 2D polymer thin films.
