Excerpt

This chapter is essentially a tutorial on the subject of electron holography. Although holography is widely known from the 3D images on key-rings and postcards or Lloyd Cross’s artwork, the concept was originally proposed as a way to improve the resolution of the electron microscope, and led to Dennis Gabor’s Nobel Prize in 1971. The term “hologram” was formed by combining the Greek word holos, meaning “whole,” with the Greek word gramma, meaning “message.” You’ll have read two pages on holography in Chap. 29 of W&C. Those pages give you the flavor, and an idea of the possible formation we can extract by studying this phenomenon. In this chapter, we examine the details. …
