Theory of momentum-resolved phonon spectroscopy in the electron microscope

We provide a theoretical framework for the prediction and interpretation of momentum-dependent phonon spectra due to coherent inelastic scattering of electrons. We complete the approach with first-principles lattice dynamics using periodic density functional theory and compare to recent electron ene...
