    About this ebook

    Computer Techniques for Image Processing in Electron Microscopy: Advances in Electronics and Electron Physics presents the sophisticated computer generated in processing the image. This book discusses the development of fast Fourier transform algorithms, which has led to the possibility of achieving a more reliable interpretation of electron micrographs by digital means. Organized into 10 chapters, this book begins with an overview of image formation in which the properties of the linear approximation are included. This text then reviews the available hardware and the basic mathematical methods of image processing in electron microscopy. Other chapters consider the constraints imposed on the image wave function by the objective lens aperture. This book discusses as well the properties of discrete Fourier transforms. The final chapter deals with a particular processing system called the Improc system. This book is a valuable resource for physicists and researcher workers who are interested in the study of image processing.

      The Eyes Have It

      Nov 9, 2021

      One of the interesting features of the new Canon EOS R3 is that it restores a feature last seen in the film EOS 3 of 1998 – that of eye-controlled autofocus. Early reviews of the camera indicate that the revived technology works well, although it req

      How It Works: The Photodiode

      May 31, 2022

      Most explanations of how image sensors work will include a description of a component called a photodiode. This is the part of a pixel that is actually sensitive to light, and produces the photocharge, which is measured to produce the exposure readin

      Measuring Sharpness

      Oct 30, 2018

      For generations photographers have valued a very ‘sharp' lens. The only problem is, how do you tell what is a ‘sharp' lens? When I first started to become interested in such things the metric was ‘line pairs per millimetre. The way this was measured
