Analysis of Interface Dynamics in Solid-State Phase Transformations by In Situ Hot-Stage High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 February 2011
Abstract
In situ hot-stage high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) provides unique capabilities for quantifying the dynamics of interfaces at the atomic level. Such information is critical for understanding the theory of interfaces and solid-state phase transformations. This paper provides a brief description of particular requirements for performing in situ hot-stage HRTEM, summarizes different types of in situ HRTEM investigations and illustrates the use of this technique to obtain quantitative data on the atomic mechanisms and kinetics of interface motion in precipitation, crystallization and martensitic reactions. Some limitations of in situ hot-stage HRTEM and future prospects of this technique are also discussed.
